Re: [openStack] instance status

 

Below is output which i got on running '*nova console-log*'

nova console-log *d46530e2-.....*

Error: The server has either erred or either incapable of performing the
requested operation. HTTP(500) (Request-ID: req-be41c539.......)

i tried the other nova commands like 'nova reboot' , ' nova reload' but got
the similar error,

and logs are not created under '/var/log/nova/'

stuck with the above issue
