Can't add images on MAAS cloud

Asked by Jarmo Viinikanoja on 2012-05-14

I did follow this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuCloudInfrastructure

at almost end of guide is this part:

EC2 API

To begin using the EC2 API, select Settings-> EC2 Credentials -> Download EC2 Credentials in the Openstack dashboard. Save the file (eg, /home/adam/openstack/"). We can then unzip these and begin using our cloud:

cd /home/adam/openstack
unzip 247e0c5de9dc415a8e411da643308eb6d-x509.zip
. ec2rc.sh
wget http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/server/server/releases/oneiric/beta-1/ubuntu-11.10-beta1-server-cloudimg-amd64.tar.gz
uec-publish-tarball ./ubuntu-11.10-beta1-server-cloudimg-amd64.tar.gz images
euca-add-keypair adam >adam.pk
euca-run-instances -k adam ami-00000002

...Wich isn't working:
Everything goes ok until this part : uec-publish-tarball ./ubuntu-11.10-beta1-server-cloudimg-amd64.tar.gz images

It gives me this output: Unable to run euca--describe-images. Is environment for euca- set up?

I did find that it aint uec-publish-tarball anymore, it is cloud-publish-tarball.... But still same error!

I have tried doing this part of guide on many places : my own computer (wich is at same network), with MAAS server computer, With dashboard-node computer, with some of nova-nodes.... I just can't get this working, and I don't know what I'm doing wrong... It just seems that I dont have rights to use euca tools.. even I did follow guide.... maybe I'm doing something wrong?

I think it is because I need AWS, wich this document doesnt mention at all...

How / where I can change settings so that it doesn't try use AWS, Would love to use local nova-api?
