Hi, I thought I was the only one, as using Debian, but it seems I'm not.
Nova is trying to write in /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6. It should not, as an admin can decide to mount /usr read only. Here's the output: http://paste.openstack.org/show/1253/ Of course, doing: chown nova /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6 kinds of fixes it, but that should never happens. Lock files should be written somewhere in /var, probably in /var/lib/nova/locks in this case. Is this a known issue (I haven't see it in a launchpad bug)? Is that an issue in python-lockfile? And more importantly: how to fix? I saw, in utils.py, a "FLAGS.lock_path". Should I just add a --lock_path=/var/lib/nova/locks in /etc/nova/nova.conf? In this case, why isn't /var/lib/nova/locks the default, and how to change that default in the code so that by default it goes in /var?
