Resolution

  • This error is caused by the cirros image not being able to be downloaded. This could be caused by a number of issues, formost being the system packstack is being installed on does not have access to http://download.cirros-cloud.net/0.3.1/. If you do not have access to this url, then change the following parameter in the packstack answer file.
CONFIG_PROVISION_DEMO=y

Root Cause

  • Using the CONFIG_PROVISION_DEMO=y paremeter in the packstack answer file causes packstack to create a demo user, a public network in the admin tenant, a private network in the demo tenant, and to download and create the cirros image.

Added a snippet for provision_glance to make article more searchable, since having provision demo=y can also cause this puppet manifest to fail.
