OpenStack Object Storage (swift)

SAIO virtual machine setting up problem

Asked by csxbwang

I want to set up a virtual machine for doing swift development. I do it following SAIO steps.

Everything is ok until step 33. The 'tester' account has been successfully created. But when I check that I can GET account (the Step 33), the error is: curl: (7) couldn't connect to host.

It seems no process listens to the port 8080. I guess 'swift-init proxy-server start' does not start the proxy server correctly in virtual machine environment.

I use virtual-box installing ubuntu server 10.04 (32-bit).

Thanks and regards.

I'm not sure why the proxy server would get permission denied while binding to port 8080. Can you post your /etc/swift/proxy-server.conf ? It should look something like (from step 10 in the SAIO):

[proxy-server]
bind_port = 8080
user = <your-user-name>

Check the permissions on all your config files in /etc/swift and make sure they are set correctly.

Thanks very much.

I made a typing error.

[proxy-server]
bind-port = 8080 // should be 'bind_port = 8080'
user = <your-user-name>
