Installing Nova on a Single Host

The command "nova-manage network create" creates networks / IP addresses that are allocated to virtual machines. Even if you are running on a single box you will need them.

Two computers aren't needed.

To anotherjesse :
"nova-manage network create" creates networks / IP addresses,but when i euca-upload-bundle ,
socket.error:(113,'No route to host')
there is a problem with my mysql ?

please paste your /etc/nova/nova.conf and take a look into the logfiles located in /var/log/nova/.

you can create a new network for example with "nova-manage network create 192.168.0.0/24 1 256". Afterwards check if there is a new network with "nova-manage network list".

To Christian Berendt:

[root@localhost nova]# nova-manage network list
list does not match any options:
           create
[root@localhost nova]#

i did not create the network ?
and i cannot find the logfile =.=

I thought my patch for nova-manage network list were already included in the upstream.. ;)

Login to your database and run "select * from networks;" in your nova-database, this will do the same and you can verify the creation.

you can define the logdir in /etc/nova/nova.conf with "--logdir=/var/log/nova". I think you have to create /var/log/nova manually. Also it's useful to use "--use_syslog" and "--verbose".

have you set the flag "--s3_host=HOST"? Is nova-objectstore running (if not using some other object storage..)? I think euca-upload-bundle does not need a an entry in the networks table, because it's talking with the S3 or Glance and not with the database in any way.

oh~ nova-objectstore is not running , and i have set --s3_host,- -logdir=/var/log/nova ,but there is nothing.
 and now nova-objectstore is running,but new error ,
 BotoServerError : 500 Internal Service Error ...

What version of python-boto are you using? You have to use the one in the PPA. And it's always useful to paste the full error.

the boto version is boto-2.0b4,and what is the PPA ?

my OS is centos5.5

That's the wrong boto version, I thing you have to use 1.9 with a patch. Please check the PPA yourself. You can find it here: http://ppa.launchpad.net/openstack/.

now i use 1.9 version,but also BotoServerError : 500 Internal Service Error ...

and i can not nova-api,nova-compute,nova-network,nova-scheduler.
when i update
BotoServerError : 500 Internal Service Error ...

and i can not nova-api,nova-compute,nova-network,nova-scheduler.
when i euca-upload-bundle
BotoServerError : 500 Internal Service Error ...

Could you please post your nova.conf file?

i have solved this,i did 'nova-network' ...
