Hello everyone,
Thanks for you help with that problem.
I was able to resolve it by examining all headers of requests and responses.
It turns out that the issue is not entirely Glance's fault and definitely not a
problem of a package.
The properties that I was missing were passed through headers with _ (underscore) in their
names:
x-image-meta-container_format: bare
x-image-meta-disk_format: qcow2
x-image-meta-is_public: True
These were the only ones that got lost.
I also incorrectly assumed that Glance would not accept a request to create an image
without required parameters disk-format and container-format. It does accept it, this
property is only enforced in Horizon. CLI also doesn't care if you pass them or not.
The ultimate root of the problem was the fact that I use nginx in front of the controller
as SSL terminating proxy. Nginx is smart enough to reject headers with underscore in their
name as invalid HTTP headers. This way the headers mentioned above were stripped and the
rest went through. Too bad that nginx is so secret about doing so. There is a simple fix
in case anyone has the same problem:
Sorry for all the trouble related to debugging the issue and thanks again!
Best Regards,
Daniel Speichert

This sounds like a bigger problem, though.
What do you mean with `disk_format` and `container_format` are lost?
for what command? Could you please share the exact command you're
running?
Notice that some of these parameters are available at creation time
but not as part of updates. That said, I recall you said it used to
work and stopped working after you updated / reinstalled your system.
Thanks!
