Error message when image creation fails is insufficient

[Tzach Shefi]

Description of problem:

The error notice is generic without a giving a reason for problem, should state failed due to qouta problem.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

RHEL 6.5
python-django-horizon-2013.2-8.el6ost.noarch

How reproducible:
Awlays.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Set glance user_total_storage qouta.
2.Upload an image file larger than qouta.
3.

glance throw StorageQuotaFull exception as a result of this error but horizon receive from the glanceclient HTTPOverLimit exception with a message indicating the problem.
I don't think it is a good Idea to show in Horizon other module exceptions message.
Perhaps a change in glanceclient must be done to throw an specific exception to the api caller and manage an specific message internally in horizon

It is user_storage_quota not user_total_storage

Hi Tzach Shefi,

Can You provide more information because i am unable to reproduce this bug.

[Tzach Shefi (tshefi)]

Hi Nikunj,

I've just tested this again on python-django-horizon-2014.1.3-1.el7ost.noarch
Still same problem, here are the steps:

1. Install openstack
2. Enable and configure -> user_storage_quota=10485760 (10mb) on glance-api.conf
3. Restart Glance
4. Using Horizon create/upload a small image (lower then 10mb) uploads fine.
5. Using Horizon create/upload a large image (more than 10MB) this is where the bug happens.
First I get a popup -> Success: your image Large has been queued for creation
Then on table i see image status as killed

This is bad, it should mention quota has been exceeded, explaining why image is "killed" .

Attaching print screen.

Should this be changed back from In Progress if no one is working on it?

can i take this bug??

[Ivan Kolodyazhny (e0ne)]

We have to check if it's still actual.

Hello

I fiddled with both 'user_storage_quota' and
'image_size_cap' in my glance config while
trying to replicate this issue with the
following results:

- No error messages are displayed when an \
attempt to break either of
  these limits is made. Instead, the image is never
uploaded but stuck as 'queued' in glance.

[Marek Lyčka (mareklycka)]

(cont.)

- The offending image is never uploaded
- An entery for the image is created by
  glance and never leaves the 'queued'
  state

This seems to be and issue with glance
rather than Horizon. I looked through
the glance launchpad but found no
reference to it.

Could someone confirm this? I'd be
grateful if someone confirmed my
findings.

P.S.: I'm using devstack glance 17.0.0.

@Ziyu Bai, could you provide the reason of marking this as Incomplete? Marking it as Incomplete without any comment looks like a spam from inspur.
