[openstack-dev] Error starting designate (DNSaaS)

I've followed instructions at
http://designate.readthedocs.org/en/latest/getting-started.html#development-environment
to build and launch designate in a redhat 6.5 VM.

I was able to install it (with some minor changes) but when trying to start
designate, the first command failed:

*designate-manage database sync*

In the first execution, designate raises this error:

*2015-06-30 12:04:08.874 26704 INFO migrate.versioning.api
[designate-manage - - - - -] 46 -> 47... 2015-06-30 12:04:09.456 26704
CRITICAL designate [designate-manage - - - - -] OperationalError:
(OperationalError) no such column: reverse_name u'UPDATE recordsets SET
reverse_name=reverse(recordsets.name <http://recordsets.name>)' ()*
If I reexecute this command, it changes slightly but it fails in the same
step (46 -> 47):

*2015-06-30 12:04:23.359 26715 INFO migrate.versioning.api
[designate-manage - - - - -] 46 -> 47... 2015-06-30 12:04:23.365 26715
CRITICAL designate [designate-manage - - - - -] OperationalError:
(OperationalError) duplicate column name: reverse_name u"\nALTER TABLE
domains ADD reverse_name VARCHAR(255) DEFAULT ''" ()*

It looks like a problem in the database scripts. Any fix for this?


Today I installed devstack in a Ubuntu VM, with designate support, and it
does work. Apparently both are using the same source code for designate.
Could it be related to the operating system?
