Comment 1 for bug 1142782

Hi There,

I see the same problem in a multi-host when I try to run nova-consoleauth:
/opt/stack/nova/bin/nova-consoleauth

log:
connection_dict = sqlalchemy.engine.url.make_url(sql_connection)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/engine/url.py", line 178, in make_url
    return _parse_rfc1738_args(name_or_url)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/engine/url.py", line 219, in _parse_rfc1738_args
    "Could not parse rfc1738 URL from string '%s'" % name)
