Public bug reported:

Testing Glance Liberty RC1 over on top of Jessie, I have found out that
if I don't write a value for filesystem_store_datadir in both glance-
api.conf and glance-registry.conf, Glance simply doesn't work, despite
what is written here:

http://docs.openstack.org/developer/glance/configuring.html#configuring-
the-filesystem-storage-backend

So I would suggest to either fix the doc, or better, make it so that the
filesystem_store_datadir really defaults to a sane value, which is
/var/lib/glance/images in the case of a distribution deployment. It is
my understanding that devstack anyway sets a correct value there, so we
wont break the gate by fixing the default value to something that works.

Hoping this helps.
