default nova.conf has no [database] section

[JF]

URL of the document:
http://docs.openstack.org/juno/install-guide/install/yum/content/ch_nova.html

When installing nova, the doc refers to adding the following under the [database] section:

[database]
...
connection = mysql://nova:NOVA_DBPASS@controller/nova

But /etc/nova/nova.conf does not have a [database] section or a connection string.

This is after installing from the RHEL7 openstack-juno repo.

Hi JF, many thanks for the report! We rely heavily on reports such as yours to improve the documentation.

We'll look at fixing up the docs to make this clearer, but in the meantime it's completely safe to add in the section yourself and continue the install.

Please don't hesitate to click that bug button again :)
