Revision history [back]

Hi,

I've prepped a windows install image locally on KVM with the last step being install of cloudbase-init. After importing this image into glance and then launching the instance, cloudbase-init.exe shell hangs on the following message:

2014-12-19 09:36:41.155 1516 DEBUG cloudbaseinit.metadata.services.httpservice [-] Getting metadata from: http://169.254.169.254/openstack/latest/metadata.json _getdata c:\program files (x86)\Cloudbase Solutions\Cloudbase-Init\Python27\lib\site-packages\cloudbaseinit\metadata\services\httpservice.py:72

It seems fetching metadata is somehow failing. I can close this window to continue, but not surprisingly, hostname renaming, password etc are not setup.

It's probably worth noting that I have no problems with the metadata service in my openstack environment when launching linux instances: they pickup the SSH key injection and hostname just fine, so I'm assuming it's a configuration problem on the windows instance side.

I'm assuming that this may be a setting in the cloudbase-init.conf file that I need to get right, but I can't find any documentation on how.

The github readme explains what plugins are available, but again, I don't see any documentation anywhere explaining how to use them.

any help is appreciated!

edit: Here are the logs:

Note that the 'Getting metadata' line is the last entry in the logs since it hung there indefinitely, so I closed the shell window
