Troubleshooting tips for keystoneauth deployment
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some common mistakes can result in API requests failing when first deploying
keystone with Swift:
* Incorrect configuration of the Swift endpoint in the Keystone service.
By default, keystoneauth expects the account part of a URL to have the form
``AUTH_<keystone_project_id>``. Sometimes the ``AUTH_`` prefix is missed when
configuring Swift endpoints in Keystone, as described in the `Install Guide
<http://docs.openstack.org/>`_. This is easily diagnosed by inspecting the
proxy-server log file for a failed request URL and checking that the URL
includes the ``AUTH_`` prefix (or whatever reseller prefix may have been
configured for keystoneauth)::
GOOD:
proxy-server: 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 07/Sep/2016/16/06/58 HEAD /v1/AUTH_cfb8d9d45212408b90bc0776117aec9e HTTP/1.0 204 ...
BAD:
proxy-server: 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 07/Sep/2016/16/07/35 HEAD /v1/cfb8d9d45212408b90bc0776117aec9e HTTP/1.0 403 ...
* Incorrect configuration of the ``authtoken`` middleware options in the Swift
proxy server.
The ``authtoken`` middleware communicates with the Keystone service to
validate tokens that are presented with client requests. To do this
``authtoken`` must authenticate itself with Keystone using the credentials
configured in the ``[filter:authtoken]`` section of
``/etc/swift/proxy-server.conf``. Errors in these credentials can result in
``authtoken`` failing to validate tokens and may be revealed in the proxy
server logs by a message such as::
proxy-server: Identity server rejected authorization
.. note::
More detailed log messaging may be seen by setting the ``authtoken``
option ``log_level = debug``.
The ``authtoken`` configuration options may be checked by attempting to use
them to communicate directly with Keystone using an ``openstack`` command
line. For example, given the ``authtoken`` configuration sample shown in
:ref:`configuring_keystone_auth`, the following command should return a
service catalog::
openstack --os-identity-api-version=3 --os-auth-url=http://keystonehost:5000/ \
--os-username=swift --os-user-domain-id=default \
--os-project-name=service --os-project-domain-id=default \
--os-password=password catalog show object-store
If this ``openstack`` command fails then it is likely that there is a problem
with the ``authtoken`` configuration.
