Okay so I'm currently having a problem with swift after installing it. I'm testing in a VMWare environment right now and I made a separate VM specifically for running Swift. Installed and configured and I went through the installation with no problem, ( swift-account, swift-object, swift-container, proxy, remakerings etc etc.) First problem I noticed is when I did: #sudo service swift-object restart stop: Unknown instance: [OK] start: Job failed to start That was my first uh oh moment. Then I ran a swift test after restarting everything, I tried to ignore the problem but it seemed to only get worse when I added swift to my Keystone Identity service (including endpoint), everything went downhill from there.. root@ubuntu:# swift -V 2.0 -A http://172.16.0.1:5000/v2.0/ -U cookbook:demo -K openstack stat Auth GET failed: http://172.16.0.1:5000/v2.0/tokens 500 Internal Server Error Here are some of the things you might find helpful in helping me *********************************************************************************************************************** remake rings bash root@ubuntu:/home/swift# leafpad /usr/local/bin/remakerings root@ubuntu:/home/swift# sudo /usr/local/bin/remakerings Device z1-127.0.0.1:6010/sdb1_"" with 1.0 weight got id 0 Device z2-127.0.0.1:6020/sdb2_"" with 1.0 weight got id 1 Device z3-127.0.0.1:6030/sdb3_"" with 1.0 weight got id 2 Device z4-127.0.0.1:6040/sdb4_"" with 1.0 weight got id 3 Reassigned 262144 (100.00%) partitions.
