[Rdo-list] Fwd: RDO, packstack, Keypair creation is failing

Wed Feb 10 18:33:17 UTC 2016

Hi Javier,

Awesome - Well, I hope. It didn't work.
I got this back:

[root at slacker2 nova(keystone_admin)]# python test.py
_init_cffi_1_0_external_module
None

Does that mean something to you?

Thanks,
Barbara
