Looking at things more closely, I find that: - The installed services are a strict superset of the "compute starter kit" as defined on https://www.openstack.org/software/sample-configs#compute-starter-kit (which contains nova, glance, keystone, and neutron), and therefore should already have basic functionality of the "let's see how this works" type. - Uploading the image downloaded from http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/openstack/current/debian-9.2.2-20171105-openstack-amd64.qcow2 through the webinterface seems to work. - Creating a network through the webinterface seems to work. - Creating a "flavor" through the webinterface seems to work. - After doing all that, I can go through the "Launch instance" wizard in the webinterface. It accepts my choices; but when it gets around to actually trying to spawn the VM, the machine becomes unresponsive. Once it starts being responsive again, it says "No valid host was found. There are not enough hosts available." It's not clear to my what exactly went wrong; this may be fixed by some configuration, or it may not. At this point, I can't remove the instance anymore either, with a "CSRF token missing or incorrect" error message. It feels like the system is fairly close to a working setup, though. -- Could you people please use IRC like normal people?!? -- Amaya Rodrigo Sastre, trying to quiet down the buzz in the DebConf 2008 Hacklab
