Comment 1 for bug 1002294

Thanks for reporting. As far as I know, nova-object store is not needed, and I'll have to investigate nova-compute-kvm usage. There are a lot of differences so it's possible that just this list is not the reason for nova-api not starting. Probably if you didn't install either rabbitmq or qpid your messaging queue isn't working so nova-api won't start.

The install and deploy manual has you install rabbitmq-server on this page: http://docs.openstack.org/essex/openstack-compute/install/content/installing-the-cloud-controller.html

We're working towards having the install/deploy guide cover more distros so the modularity and order is different from the Ubuntu-only guide.
