Octavia OSC plugin is failing to create l7rules

[Michael Johnson]

When I attempt to create an L7 rule with the openstack client I get the following error:

descriptor 'upper' requires a 'str' object but received a 'unicode'

Command line ran:
openstack --debug loadbalancer l7rule create --compare-type REGEX --type PATH --value /images* 31c6125d-c607-4654-bdf5-57dfaefac921
However the same occurs with simple file type equals rules as well.
