vagrant-rackspace server error Fog::Compute::RackspaceV2::InternalServerError

[noeliaoses]

Hi,

I have a simple vagrantfile that used to work:

# Defines our Vagrant environment
#
# -*- mode: ruby -*-
# vi: set ft=ruby :

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.ssh.private_key_path = "~/.ssh/id_rsa_private_key" 
  config.vm.provider :rackspace do |rs|
    rs.username         = "myusername"
    rs.api_key          = "myapikey"
    rs.flavor           = /512MB/
    rs.image            = /Ubuntu/
    rs.rackspace_region = :lon
    rs.server_name      = "test-dummy"
    rs.key_name         = "ssh_rda_public_key"
  end
end

It used to work but now I get the following error:

What happened? I didn't change anything. How come it is not working any more? Any help will be much appreciated. @mitchellh @maxlinc @seanorama @elight @michaelsbradleyjr @mbarton @dr-strangecode @pikesley @cyli @DavidWittman @berendt @patcon @domcleal @emyl @viable-hartman @VMTrooper @Richtermeister @deanmalmgren @git-harry @avelis

@noeliaoses I no longer use Rackspace at the moment.

At this point, all I can suggest is to check your ability to launch rackspace instances via the openstack command line.

[noeliaoses]

@avelis Thank you for the quick reply! Unfortunately, I've never used openstack and don't even know what it is and/or what it is for :( I guess I'll have to do some studying unless somebody else provides another solution...

[derks]

@noeliaoses I think the issue might be that your regex matching for the image is too loose. Your using /512MB/ for the flavor, which matches the 512MB Standard Instance, however using /Ubuntu/ for the image is wide open and is matching OnMetal - Ubuntu 15.10 (Wily) which isn't want you want (OnMetal == Bare Metal Servers). Maybe try something more specific like /Ubuntu 14.04 LTS/.

Might also help to know the following:

• System OS:
• Vagrant Version (vagrant --version):
• Vagrant Rackspace Plugin Version (vagrant plugin list):

[noeliaoses]

@derks I tried using rs.flavor = /512MB Standard Instance/ and rs.image = /Ubuntu 14.04 LTS/, however I still get the same error.

My OS is Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. vagrant version 1.7.4. I don't know how to check the vagrant-rackspace version

Any other ideas would be very welcomed.

[derks]

You can get the plugin versions by: vagrant plugin list.

[derks]

@noeliaoses I was able to reproduce this using your example Vagrantfile, and using my Rackspace UK LON account. The issue was indeed with the regex on the image. Even using /Ubuntu 14.04 LTS/ matches an OnMetal image, which fails for obvious reasons.

I was able to resolve this issue by using the following image regex:

rs.image = /^Ubuntu 14.04 LTS/

Can you try that?

[noeliaoses]

@derks That worked!!!! Thank you very much. I had seen the OnMetal thing but did not understand what that meant.

My vagrant-rackspace version is 0.1.10, but I guess that doesn't matter now :)
