Hello,

I installed swift on Ubuntu 12.04 AMD64 following this howto:
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/howto_installmultinode.html

However, although the storage nodes work fine, I can't start the proxy 
node :
Feb  5 18:00:06 srv13 proxy-server UNCAUGHT EXCEPTION Traceback (most 
recent call last):   File "/usr/bin/swift-proxy-server", line 22, in 
<module>     run_wsgi(conf_file, 'proxy-server', default_port=8080, 
**options)   File

run_wsgi     capture_stdio(logger)   File

capture_stdio     with open(os.devnull, 'r+b') as nullfile: IOError:

/dev# ll null
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 3 Jan 25 17:43 null

Any idea ?

Thanks,
