Issue with nova-api-metadata / --user-data

Hello everyone,

Guys, I'm trying to get my nova-api-metadata working
(have tried the documents within the docs page and even
some external sources), but I got no good luck so far.

May I have the shared experience of you guys ?

I'm running Devstack (Openstack) build Grizzly
on Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS

Here's the deal: Long story short, I'm trying to get a cloud_instance
that was provisioned by *nova boot* (as shown below):


$  nova boot --user-data ./myfile.txt    \
     --image c6020ab5-dea3-43bf-8274-2078d65cd64d \
     --flavor 3 \
    cloudinit-instant-test-1


>> The content of that myfile.txt is just: "Hello World", literally


Well, the instance gets provisioned indeed and it does have connectivity
to the magic_ip 169.254.169.254

But, whenever I try:

$ curl http://169.254.169.254
                or
$ curl http://169.254.169.254/openstack


(All I get is the following)::


<html>
 <head>
  <title>400 Bad Request</title>
 </head>
 <body>
  <h1>400 Bad Request</h1>
  X-Instance-ID header is missing from request.<br /><br />

http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/content/metadata-service.html
But according to this document, right down at
the section: *Running the metadataservice*, that should've suffice...



*Here's my setup on /etc/nova/nova.conf*

 33 lock_path = /opt/stack/data/nova
 34 state_path = /opt/stack/data/nova



Did I miss anything at all ?

If so, could you guys share a working metadata nova.conf file?


Thank you very much in advance.
