Title: EC2 API errors do not match spec Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova): Fix Released Bug description: Using code written against the Boto client library and originally tested against EC2 I'm finding I have to retrofit all my exception handling because Nova seems to just wrap its own exceptions as EC2ResponseError, so the error codes have no resemblance to the EC2 API error codes: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/api-error-codes.html For example, when I hit Nova quota limits and try to start new instances I get: File "/opt/local/nimrodg/share/nimrod/boto/ec2/connection.py", line 715, in run_instances verb='POST') File "/opt/local/nimrodg/share/nimrod/boto/connection.py", line 1000, in get_object raise self.ResponseError(response.status, response.reason, body) EC2ResponseError: EC2ResponseError: 400 Bad Request <?xml version="1.0"?> <Response><Errors><Error><Code>TooManyInstances</Code><Message>Quota exceeded for cores,ram: Request ed 4, but already used 80 of 80 cores</Message></Error></Errors><RequestID>req-74d2e517-c99f-43e6-bfc 1-651ef79737ff</RequestID></Response> But I'm expecting the error code for this from an EC2 compatible API to be InstanceLimitExceeded. Seems like it should be possible be add the equivalent ec2_api_error string to all suitable Nova exceptions and then have Nova's EC2 API use that where available?
