If you're running trunk, this could be bug 607572.  Until that is fixed,
the compute node can't retrieve an image from the objectstore.  The
workaround which "worked for me" was to use direct filesystem access to
retrieve the image (this assumes that everything's running on one
machine):


e.g. NOVA_COMPUTE_ARGS="--ca_path=${CA_DIR} --keys_path=${KEYS_PATH} --fake_users=1 ${NETWORK_ARGS} --images_path=${IMAGES_PATH} --use_s3=false --instances_path=${INSTANCES_PATH} --networks_path=${NETWORKS_PATH} --libvirt_xml_template=nova/compute/libvirt.xml.template --vpn_client_template=nova/cloudpipe/client.ovpn.template --credentials_template=/nova/auth/novarc.template"

The important things there are --use_s3 and --instances_path

I could write up some notes on how to bundle and launch an instance, but
I've only ever got this working without a kernel and ramdisk.  i.e. this
depends on ~justin-fathomdb/nova/raw-disk-images, and probably other
patches also.  It might be that the bugs that prevented me from using
kernel/ramdisk have now been fixed, but I haven't retried to try to
figure it out!
