Nova-manage no longer operating due to neutron rename

[Joshua Harlow]

Due to the new quantum/neutronclient package rename the current nova code does not work correctly.

ProcessExecutionError: Unexpected error while running command.
Command: sudo '-u' nova '/usr/bin/nova-manage' db sync
Exit code: 1
Stdout: ''
Stderr: 'Traceback (most recent call last):\n File "/usr/bin/nova-manage", line 5, in <module>\n from pkg_resources import load_entry_point\n File "/usr 2880, in <module>\n parse_requirements(__requires__), Environment()\n File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 596, in resolve\n tributionNotFound: python-quantumclient>=2.2.0,<3.0.0\n'

The new package that neutron installs is called neutronclient, this breaks nova-manage since it can't find the new client.

Thanks davanum,

Good to know. Although it is a little concerning that the neutronclient rename got in before these other fixes (better synchronization or commit dependencies maybe could have helped?). I could imagine anyone doing continous deployment breaking right now due to this.

devstack has the same problem due to the rename of quantumclient:

$ /usr/bin/nova-api
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/nova-api", line 5, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point

quantumclient is still in the requirements project and in the Nova project. The tarball is also available in PyPI and the local. The repo should now be installed as any other pip dependency. How old is your devstack environment?

Whats devstack ;) J/k I will try it again after this change.
