You are right. The fix will probably need to be in the python- openstackclient code.

Engineering Team, which is subscribed to neutron. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1764259 Title: neutron openstack client returns ' Unknown error' instead of the real error Status in python-openstackclient: Incomplete Bug description: For several neutron create actions, when called via the openstack client you do not get the real error issued by the plugin, as you do with the neutronclient. instead yo get: BadRequestException: Unknown error For example, try to create a subnet without a cidr: 1) with the neutron client you see the real error: neutron subnet-create --name sub1 net1 neutron CLI is deprecated and will be removed in the future. Use openstack CLI instead. Bad subnets request: a subnetpool must be specified in the absence of a cidr. Neutron server returns request_ids: ['req-8ee84525-6e98-4774-9392-ab8b596cde1a'] 2) with the openstack client the information is missing: openstack subnet create --network net1 sub1 BadRequestException: Unknown error To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-openstackclient/+bug/1764259/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yahoo-eng-team Post to : yahoo-eng-team@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yahoo-eng-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
