No... sorry, I didn't mean re-install the OS, just reconfigure OpenStack
from scratch (drop the databases [NOT the mysql and other defaults]) and
step back through the config without the nova-volume piece in the mix.

The malformed request is telling you that there's something that the
receiving end does not like about the call you've made.  The reason I
suspect the endpoint or catalog service issue is that I've made the same
mistake and seen the same error myself :)

Thanks,
John
