Subprocess CalledProcessError During "microstack init" Procedure

[Padraig Connolly]

I am currently trying to install microstack on an Ubuntu 20.04 server instance behind a corporate proxy (w/ root user). The procedure from here was followed: https://microstack.run/docs/single-node

1. snap install microstack --devmode --beta
2. microstack init --auto --control
After running the init command, it proceeds through a few stages but fails on "openstack project create --domain default --description "Service Project" service"

I have a strange feeling that this could be due to the proxy that I run behind, is there any extra config required for this scenario. Apart from that, I'm unsure as to what's causing the initialization issue. If you require any further debugging data, I'm more than happy to provide it!

Were you able to resolve this? I am facing the same issue. No clue how to resolve it.

[Padraig Connolly (pjconnol)]

I'm afraid not, something gives me the feeling Microstack is no longer actively being supported in launchpad.

Are you by any chance running behind a corporate proxy?

[Franco Jaraba Corzo (francojaraba)]

I am not using a proxy, but I found a way to resolve it and it was removing the keystone folder that was already in the /etc. Hope this can help you.
