Public bug reported: Looks like this forum is not well used, but not sure where else to ask this.
When I run the nova client I see that it hangs for 25 seconds or so before returning. This is as a specific non-root user. With root (or sudo) this delay/hang is not there and it's not happening for other users either. This is without any options (e.g. "nova help"). Using "strace" I see that it's timing out on some filedescriptor after 25 seconds. 17687 1375377962.257688 poll([{fd=6, events=POLLIN}], 1, 25000) = 0 (Timeout) <25.025049> That file descriptor is a socket with an endpoint pointing to python, but thats as far as I have gotten: # ps -elf | egrep nova 0 T jamo 19040 8910 3 80 0 - 23150 signal 11:10 pts/28 00:00:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/nova 0 S root 19046 8876 0 80 0 - 3406 pipe_w 11:10 pts/7 00:00:00 egrep --color=auto nova # ll /proc/19040/fd/ total 0 dr-x------ 2 jamo jamo 0 Aug 1 11:10 ./ dr-xr-xr-x 9 jamo jamo 0 Aug 1 11:10 ../ lrwx------ 1 jamo jamo 64 Aug 1 11:11 0 -> /dev/pts/28 lrwx------ 1 jamo jamo 64 Aug 1 11:11 1 -> /dev/pts/28 lrwx------ 1 jamo jamo 64 Aug 1 11:10 2 -> /dev/pts/28 lr-x------ 1 jamo jamo 64 Aug 1 11:11 3 -> /usr/share/pyshared/novaclient/shell.py lr-x------ 1 jamo jamo 64 Aug 1 11:11 4 -> /usr/share/pyshared/keyring/__init__.py lr-x------ 1 jamo jamo 64 Aug 1 11:11 5 -> /usr/share/pyshared/keyring/core.py lrwx------ 1 jamo jamo 64 Aug 1 11:11 6 -> socket:[972315] s# netstat -nxp | egrep 972315 unix 3 [ ] STREAM CONNECTED 972315 19040/python I must have something wrong with this specific users environment, but I can't figure it out. Any other ideas for debugging this?
