Description Stephen Gordon 2013-02-19 15:09:38 UTC
Description of problem:

In theory I believe it's possible to run packstack as a non-root user, although you must be able to provide root credentials for all machines onto which components are being deployed.

Packstack currently deploys the keystonerc_admin file to the home directory of the user running packstack (good). But the message displayed appears to be hardcoded to saying the file was deployed to /root/.

packstack]$ grep -r keystonerc *
packstack/installer/output_messages.py:INFO_KEYSTONERC="To use the command line tools source the file /root/keystonerc_admin created on %s"
packstack/puppet/templates/openstack_client.pp:file {"${::home_dir}/keystonerc_admin":

Version:

commit b098b19157a44f344032114753071e5b5ae4fc48

Comment 2 Nir Magnezi 2013-03-12 12:19:17 UTC
Verified NVR: openstack-packstack-2012.2.3-0.1.dev454.el6ost.noarch

1. Changed root's home directory to /home/testing
2. ran packstack


Output:

 **** Installation completed successfully ******

     (Please allow Installer a few moments to start up.....)


Additional information:
 * Time synchronization installation was skipped. Please note that unsynchronized time on server instances might be problem for some OpenStack components.
 * To use the command line tools you need to source the file //home/testing/keystonerc_admin created on 10.35.161.106
 * To use the console, browse to http://10.35.161.106/dashboard
 * The installation log file is available at: /var/tmp/packstack/20130312-124304-hTx79t/openstack-setup.log



Verified that keystonerc_admin was created in /home/testing:

1# ls -lash /home/testing/ | grep keystone
4.0K -rw-------  1 root root  174 Mar 12 12:53 keystonerc_admin
