I have installed OpenStack Diablo (version 2011.3.1 released January 20,
2012) on Linux Ubuntu Oneiric (11.10), including a working version of
the essex-dev dashboard (Horizon).
By installing the development version of the dashboard, you can manage
almost everything, including:
- In the project panel: instances, volumes, floating IPs, security
groups, images, and instance snapshots.
- In the admin panel: instances, services, flavors, images, tenants
(projects), users, and quotas.
In both panels, you also have status and usage information.
Versions and installation methods:
* Version 2011.3.1 (stable/diablo) for:
- Nova (ppa/deb packages)
- Glance (ppa/deb packages)
- Keystone (ppa/deb packages)
* Version 2012.1-dev (dev/essex) for:
- Dashboard (git/source package)
You can find the detailed procedure to install
Nova/Glance/Keystone/Horizon on Ubuntu Oneiric here:

Bellow the part concerning the installation of the dashboard:
Install the dashboard:
Get the dashboard source from Github, version essex-2-46-g580ecc2
(dev/essex):
# cd /usr/local/
# wget
https://github.com/openstack/horizon/tarball/580ecc20bc04fdb74e1a8416feddcc84de745cd6
# mv 580ecc20bc04fdb74e1a8416feddcc84de745cd6 horizon-e2-46-g580ecc2.tar.gz
# tar -xzvf horizon-e2-46-g580ecc2.tar.gz
# mv openstack-horizon-580ecc2 horizon-e2-46-g580ecc2
Install some required packages:
# aptitude install python-django python-setuptools python-dev
Adapt the configuration file:
# cd /usr/local/horizon-e2-46-g580ecc2/openstack-dashboard/local/
# cp local_settings.py.example local_settings.py
# vi local_settings.py
And adapt two parameters as follow:
OPENSTACK_HOST = "node1"
QUANTUM_ENABLED = False
Install a Python virtual environment:
# cd /usr/local/horizon-e2-46-g580ecc2/openstack-dashboard/tools/
# easy_install virtualenv
Install the dashboard in the virtual environment (that will take some time):
# python install_venv.py
The install should finish with the following messages (if not, start the
install again):
Installing horizon module in development mode...
OpenStack Dashboard development environment setup is complete.
To activate the virtualenv for the extent of your current shell session
you can run:
$ source .dashboard-venv/bin/activate
Activate the virtual environment:
# cd
/usr/local/horizon-e2-46-g580ecc2/openstack-dashboard/.dashboard-venv/bin/
# source activate
Create the SQLite DB with its tables:
# cd /usr/local/horizon-e2-46-g580ecc2/openstack-dashboard/dashboard/
# ./manage.py syncdb
You will see the following messages:
Creating tables ...
Creating table django_session
Installing custom SQL ...
Installing indexes ...
No fixtures found.
Install Openstackx diablo (extention for nova-api diablo):
# cd /usr/local/
# wget https://github.com/cloudbuilders/openstackx/tarball/rcb_v1.1
# mv rcb_v1.1 openstackx-diablo.tar.gz
# tar -xzvf openstackx-diablo.tar.gz
# mv cloudbuilders-openstackx-53fd616 openstackx-diablo
Adapt the nova.conf file as follow:
# vi /etc/nova/nova.conf
And add the following parameter:
--osapi_extensions_path=/usr/local/openstackx-diablo/extensions
Launch the Dashboard on port tcp/8000:
# cd /usr/local/horizon-e2-46-g580ecc2/openstack-dashboard/dashboard/
# ./manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
You will see the following messages:
Django version 1.3.1, using settings 'dashboard.settings'
Development server is running at http://0.0.0.0:8000/
Quit the server with CONTROL-C.
You can now access the Dashboard with a web browser at the address:
http://localhost:8000 or http://node1:8000 or http://192.168.1.201:8000
To be able to connect on the console of the instances via VNC, you need
to install the nova-vncproxy package and the noVNC software (it is a
slightly modified version of noVNC which can work with the nova-vnc-proxy).
Install nova-vncproxy:
# aptitude install nova-vncproxy
nova-vncproxy will not start automatically: it gives the following error:
INFO nova.wsgi [-] Starting TCP server /usr/bin/nova-vncproxy on 0.0.0.0:843
CRITICAL nova [-] [Errno 13] Permission denied
Start it manually in a screen with root:
# nova-vncproxy
Install noVNC:
# cd /var/lib/nova/
# git clone https://github.com/openstack/noVNC.git
Adapt the nova.conf file as follow:
# vi /etc/nova/nova.conf
And add this parameter:
--vncproxy_url=http://node1:6080

FWIW, I got horizon/keystone from devstack working on a separate host
to my Ubuntu ppa openstack host. Couldn't get them on the one host
due to python libs getting installed to different locations.

You should be able to use the newer devstack v2 to get horizon up
and running.
I haven't tested it to well but I think it will do it.
https://github.com/yahoo/Openstack-Devstack2
./stack --c horizon --a install --d $HOME/youropenstackplace (will
install all of horizons dependencies also)
./stack --c horizon --a start --d $HOME/youropenstackplace (should
start horizon + dependencies, haven't messed around with this yet,
might need a little work)

I have seen folks at openstack IRC who could get it working but all
packages from github. I have tried several options and the problem is
related with openstackx. I run diablo from ubuntu repo and its working
fine. Somebody told me that the dashboard / keystone at ubuntu is
broken . I could run dashboard and keystone that I checkout from
horizon. I could login in with errors but looks its really impossible
to fix (at least to me) the openstackx issue.
If anyone has working dashboard with diablo from Oneric please share
how they handle the issues with openstackx
