Re: Problems connecting Dashboard and Nova

 

Got the environment up and went to the Dashboard's entry page by pointing my
browser to http://localhost:80/ (http://localhost:8000/ doesn't work).

Logged successfully with 'admin' user name;
entered the System Panel page;
got error in the Overview page:
"Unable to get service info: User does not have admin privileges"

got error in the Instances page:
"Unable to get instance list: (InterfaceError) Error binding parameter 6 -
probably unsupported type......"

got error in the System Panel Services page:
"Unable to get service info: User does not have admin privileges"
it does display glance, identity , nova-compat, nova as up.

got error in User Dashboard Image when launching the only listed image
(id=3, ami-tty):
"Unable to launch instance: (InterfaceError) Error binding parameter 0 -
probably unsupported type. ....."


I didn't see any of the nova processes running with 'nova-*' names. What
names do they have?

I wasn't able to run either the nova-manage nor the euca tools. How can I do
this? It is very helpful to have both access to the command line tools in
nova as well as the Dashboard.

Thanks,

Mauricio
