We've got a patch up to resolve this in DevStack [1]. As Matt notes, the issue is because a path was renamed in noVNC 1.0.0. You could resolve this by including a symlink to the path in your package but it might be better long-term to simply ensure the deployment tools take care of this. We can eventually change the default in nova once noVNC 1.0.0 gains enough momentum. There's a WIP patch up for this too [2].
