[Bug 820432] [NEW] using name in register causes internal server error

[Scott Moser]

Public bug reported:

I'm running oneiric versions of euca2ools, boto, and cloud-utils:
$ dpkg-query --show euca2ools python-boto cloud-utils
cloud-utils	0.23-0ubuntu1
euca2ools	1.3.1-0ubuntu12
python-boto	2.0-0ubuntu1

And interacting with a 10.04 era Eucalyptus, I try to publish an image:

$ cloud-publish-image -vv --type image i386 my.img smoser-test
Wed Aug  3 11:09:56 EDT 2011: using smoser-test/my.img for --name
[image ] my.img => smoser-test/my.img 
Wed Aug  3 11:09:56 EDT 2011: checking for existing registered image at smoser-test/my.img.manifest.xml
Wed Aug  3 11:09:57 EDT 2011: bundling image my.img
Wed Aug  3 11:09:57 EDT 2011: upload smoser-test/my.img.manifest.xml
Wed Aug  3 11:09:58 EDT 2011: register smoser-test/my.img.manifest.xml
failed: euca-register --name smoser-test/my.img smoser-test/my.img.manifest.xml
Warning: failed to parse error message from AWS: <unknown>:1:0: syntax error
BotoServerError: 500 Internal Server Error
Failure: 500 Internal Server Error

failed to register my.img.manifest.xml


The final command there, 'euca-register' causes a long pause, and then returns with the server internal error as show above.

Removing the '--name' will fix the issue.  I'm not really sure how this
should/could be handled.  euca2ools or boto or cloud-utils would somehow
need to know that they should not use '--name' with this server.

I've verified that the above command works fine when pointed at the
Eucalyptus Community Cloud [1] as of today.  I'm not sure what version
that is, but I suspect its 2.0 or newer (lucid is 1.6.2).
