Did some more research on this. It isn't strictly a bug in horizon, but
rather a shortfall in swiftclient. Swiftclient isn't capable of reading
capabilities from ceph and cannot read policies by default. Modifying
/usr/lib/python3.6/swiftclient/client.py to use the modified /swift/info
url that ceph provides and restarting httpd and memcached fixes the
issue. Without this modification the new horizon feature still blocks
creation of new containers by default. Either swiftclient needs fixing
to allow for ceph schema or horizon needs an option to ignore this
(prefer swiftclient feature tbh)

Title:
Container security policy fetch prevents creating container when
using ceph
Status in OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon):
New
Status in python-swiftclient:
New
Bug description:
Starting in Ussuri release (horizon 18.3.0), horizon tries to pull a
list of security policies from swift so you can choose during
creation. If you are using ceph as your object storage, this check
fails to get the list of policies and the fetch fails and prevents you
from creating any containers. Containers and objects can still be
manipulated via CLI.
Dashboard error message is thrown upon clicking Object-Store >
Containers dashboard.. "Error: Unable to fetch the policy details."
You can see existing containers, but unable to create any new ones.
Security Policy isn't fetched and is required to create one in
horizon.
Basically it seems with the new feature in horizon, it totally breaks
the dashboard functionality if you are using ceph as your backend.
environment details:
CentOS 8.1
Openstack Ussuri
openstack-dashboard-18.3.2-1.el8.noarch
Ceph Octopus 15.2.2
