heat (kilo) ERROR: Missing required credential: X-Auth-Key

[Robert Clark]

I have installed the heat juju charm as part of my install of Openstack Kilo. I have my openstack origin set to "cloud:trusty-kilo". I have found that when attempting to use the "Preview Stack" option that it always fails with the error "Error: ERROR: Missing required credential: X-Auth-Key". I was able to get this error to go away by following the steps provided here http://hardysteven.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/heat-auth-model-updates-part-1-trusts.html however I am not sure if these steps fully fix the problem or cause any other issues.

I had this error when I tried create an stack that include a ceilometer alarm. I found two solutions:

   firstone: changedeferred_auth_method=trusts
      http://hardysteven.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/heat-auth-model-updates-part-1-trusts.html

   Secondone:creating the heat_stack_user:
      sudo apt-get install python-openstackclient
      openstack role create heat_stack_user

I hope it be usefull

I think this is covered by the 'domain-setup' action that the heat provides to configure a keystone domain and accounts for heat to use on the backend:

   juju run-action heat/0 domain-setup

Ideally we'd do this automatically as part of deployment - for now you must run this post deployment.
