Public bug reported:
/etc/openstack-dashboard/local_settings.py defines Horizon's SECRET_KEY
as:
SECRET_KEY =
secret_key.generate_or_read_from_file(os.path.join(LOCAL_PATH,
'.secret_key_store'))
since LOCAL_PATH is '/usr/share/openstack-
dashboard/openstack_dashboard/local', it tries to write a file in that
directory. This results in an error when running Horizon:

Workaround is to set fixed SECRET_KEY as:
SECRET_KEY = 'randomchars'
or to define it in a different directory (for example, *unsecure* /tmp):
SECRET_KEY =
secret_key.generate_or_read_from_file('/tmp/.secret_key_store')
This problem exists only in Saucy.
