This should fix the issue - https://review.openstack.org/5608 It duplicates the fix from 5-10 lines below now that the dot files have been moved into a directory.

Re: [Openstack] Horizon OpenStack Dashboard RC1 on Ubuntu 12.04 B1 - can't get it working
It needs to create the directory in the first place to enable caching.. But - If for whatever reason caching fails that should be no reason to blow up and present an error. Its probably worth highlighting this code is in python-novaclient, not horizon. The vast majority of uses cases will be able to cache just fine. Anyway - The point is - cache if we can, but if we cant, lets not interrupt the user.

Hi Kevin, Change these lines in /etc/openstack-dashboard/local_settings.py and it should fix the issue of being kicked off from Dashboard after logging in: #CACHE_BACKEND = 'locmem://' CACHE_BACKEND = 'dummy://' SESSION_ENGINE = 'django.contrib.sessions.backends.cached_db' George From: openstack-bounces+george.mihaiescu=q9@lists.launchpad.net [mailto:openstack-bounces+george.mihaiescu=q9@lists.launchpad.net] On Behalf Of Kevin Jackson Sent: Wednesday, March 21, 2012 7:24 AM To: openstack@lists.launchpad.net Subject: [Openstack] Horizon OpenStack Dashboard RC1 on Ubuntu 12.04 B1 -can't get it working Dear all, I could do with some help.

Re: [Openstack] Horizon OpenStack Dashboard RC1 on Ubuntu 12.04 B1 -can't get it working
I've actually not invalidated https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openstack-dashboard/+bug/960070as I originally and intentionally raised this in the ubuntu package. This still makes me think its still a bug with the package as provided by Ubuntu. 1) either install memcached as a dependency - as the configs assume this 2) change the configs appropriately so sensible defaults are used Cheers, Kev On 21 March 2012 14:13, Kevin Jackson ke...@linuxservices.co.uk wrote: Ah, George - thanks!
