Hi Paolo, I wasn’t able to reproduce your issue with your code so let’s try something that we know works.
Please try the following steps: mkdir jclouds-lon cd jclouds-lon wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jclouds/jclouds-examples/master/rackspace/pom.xml mvn dependency:copy-dependencies "-DoutputDirectory=./lib" wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/everett-toews/9129de9c83fefd721316/raw/057ac9a44a3f7b59bc91ac31fa549aa7ce742593/Test.java # update the uk_username and uk_apikey javac -cp ".:lib/*" Test.java java -cp ".:lib/*" Test Does following those exact steps work for you? If so, what’s the difference between that and your code? If not, we’ll keep digging to find out what the issue is with the steps above.

You'll have to change your code to use LON either by editing the code or by running the example with: -Dregion=LON. HTH! I.

Specifically, I'm using Cloudfiles UK, jClouds 1.7.3, and when I run the UploadObjects test included this example project I get this kind of exception: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: region IAD not in [] at com.google.common.base.Preconditions.checkArgument(Preconditions.java:120) at org.jclouds.openstack.swift.v1.blobstore.RegionScopedBlobStoreContext.checkRegionId(RegionScopedBlobStoreContext.java:105) at org.jclouds.openstack.swift.v1.blobstore.RegionScopedBlobStoreContext.blobStoreInRegion(RegionScopedBlobStoreContext.java:75) at org.jclouds.examples.rackspace.cloudfiles.UploadObjects.<init>(UploadObjects.java:78) at org.jclouds.examples.rackspace.cloudfiles.UploadObjects.main(UploadObjects.java:60) So it seems like there is not region configured. Before running it, I changed the provider Id to "rackspace-cloudfiles-uk". Any idea about what am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance. Best regards, Paolo
