Can't remove messed up image upload

Asked by Sum Guy

As a result of interupting an image upload due to client side problems, my new multi node set up has some faulty images in it. I attempted to delete them by deleting the entire bucket (bucket1), with euca-delete-bundle, without luck, and tried deleting glance's image store, including the database (as these were the first images I was uploading). Now, glance sees no images, but running euca-describe-images still shows them being there, and euca-delete-bundle still refuses to delete the bucket. The installation is a 2 node setup with a client as described here: http://cssoss.wordpress.com/2011/04/27/openstack-beginners-guide-for-ubuntu-11-04-installation-and-configuration/

Does anyone know of any way that I can repair this mess? Thanks for any help.

Hmm, describe instances should be querying glance for its results. Are you sure you successfully deleted glance's db?

Thanks for the response. After your comment I purged Glance from the system and reinstalled it. During the purge, the system pointed out Glance's log files, which I missed before, so I also removed those. After reinstallation of Glance the system is now working fine.

Thanks again.
