how to troubleshoot 'nova get-password' returning a blank password
Hi,
Per the instructions here:
http://www.cloudbase.it/openstack-win...
When I attempt to retrieve the Admin password with the following command:
nova get-password <wininstance> <privatekeyfile>
It returns an empty string.
The article mentions that the HTTP metadata service needs to be up and running when the instance is created. I don't know how to check this directly, but I have verified that I can successfully inject the ssh key into linux instances that I've created. I'm assuming this uses the same HTTP metadata service, and if so, then the metadata service is working properly.
Any suggestions on how to further troubleshoot this?
make sure you are able to ping to 169.254.169.254 if yes restart cloudbase service and try again by refresing the horizon or by executing nova get-passwordagain.
let me know i am facing this issue but after restart service its working,but it should in a state of work directly without doing that. please let me know this works or not for you.
