Public bug reported: I think this was working in Kilo but broken in Newton.
When I submit a POST to create a new node, and the POST JSON has "key_name": null, I get an HTTP 400 error. For example: curl -i -X POST -H 'Host: example.com:13774' -H 'X-LC-Request-ID: 139827913935568' -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate' -H 'X-Auth-Token: <mytoken>' -H 'Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8' -H 'Accept: application/json' -H 'User-Agent: libcloud/2.0.0 (OpenStack) ' --data-binary '{"server": {"name": "kdreyer-test", "imageRef": "ac47d004 -c15c-4eb5-a205-ec8beda806e5", "key_name": null, "flavorRef": "2", "metadata": {}, "personality": []}}' --compress https://example.com:13774/v2.1/servers 400 Bad Request Openstack-Api-Version: compute 2.1 X-Openstack-Nova-Api-Version: 2.1 Vary: OpenStack-API-Version, X-OpenStack-Nova-API-Version Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8 Content-Length: 159 X-Compute-Request-Id: req-de6f1fc0-f403-4579-bfa3-e4ce031bcd91 Date: Tue, 27 Jun 2017 18:56:28 GMT {"badRequest": {"message": "An invalid 'name' value was provided. The name must be: printable characters. Can not start or end with whitespace.", "code": 400}} Omitting the key_name parameter entirely allows the request to succeed. The problem is that the API error from Nova is complaining about "name", when it should be "key_name" instead. I spent a long time wondering what was wrong with my innocuous node name there. ** Affects: nova Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
