You can close this bug as it's not related to py34 (99% sure). The invalid literal and the decoding errors usually happen during hickups in the connection while trying to upload data.
Here's the conversation I had with Hemanth who sees them a lot in his cloud. --- 10:44:48 nikhil rosmaita: hemanthm: stevemar_ pointed out the error we observe in the upload process -- ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 16: '' . http://logs.openstack.org/33/188033/7/check/gate-heat-dsvm-functional-orig-mysql/9eaf0e2/logs/screen-g-api.txt.gz?level=ERROR . I remember it to be an issue with corruption of local data. Can any of you confirm? (The error happens at the wsgi level that's being used by swift store.) 10:45:47 hemanthm nikhil: from what I've seen it's dom0 timing out 10:46:13 hemanthm not saying there can't be other reaons for it 10:46:19 nikhil hemanthm: in this case, it's doing a straight upload from data local node 10:46:40 nikhil hemanthm: so, guess it's the local node getting intermittent hickups? 10:46:59 hemanthm nikhil: possible 10:47:33 hemanthm essentially, from a glance perspective the upload hasn't finished yet and it tries to read data from the input stream 10:48:17 hemanthm and when it can't read further data, it throws that and barfs --- The error is being raised when eventlet.wsgi ((under glance_store's swift store drivers' (py-swiftclient's) import modules)) tried to decode the stream being sent and find inconsistency in the data stream. I looked at some of the links shared on IRC and could not find evidence of this being related to py34. Though, if this happens more often and people are not able to get their patches in, I am definitely willing to take a much more closer look. ** Changed in: glance Status: New => Opinion -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
