[Bug 1408088] Re: [SRU] not able to upload binary files when booting a vm

[Chris J Arges]

Hello Liang, or anyone else affected,

Accepted python-novaclient into trusty-proposed. The package will build
now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-
novaclient/1:2.17.0-0ubuntu1.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed
repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Not able to upload binary files to vm while booting.

  [Test Case]

   * make/find a binary file with size smaller than the upload limit,
  e.g. 10k

   * create a vm and upload the binary file at the same time - nova boot
  --flavor 2 --image cloudimg-amd64 --file /root/ping=/bin/ping test

  [Regression Potential]

   * None

  Not able to upload binary files to vm while booting, e.g. nova boot
  --flavor 2 --image cloudimg-amd64 --file /root/ping=/bin/ping test

  Commit 8b264fc61d21fe4d0c7405914fb084f898956888 changed encoding
  schema of file contents from base64 to utf-8 for python3
  compatibility. But that caused an issue when uploading binary files
  which cannot be utf-8 encoded.
