I had a system with devstack, which I restack with reclone, with the intention of then patching in my review diffs to update and test. Well, the stack is failing in n-nonvc, with this message:

openstack at devstack-33:~/devstack$ /usr/local/bin/nova-novncproxy --config-file /etc/nova/nova.conf --web /opt/stack/noVNC & echo $! >/opt/stack/status/stack/n-novnc.pid; fg || echo "n-novnc failed to start" | tee "/opt/stack/status/stack/n-novnc.failure"
[1] 826
/usr/local/bin/nova-novncproxy --config-file /etc/nova/nova.conf --web /opt/stack/noVNC
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/nova-novncproxy", line 6, in <module>
    from nova.cmd.novncproxy import main
  File "/opt/stack/nova/nova/cmd/novncproxy.py", line 29, in <module>
    from nova.console import websocketproxy
  File "/opt/stack/nova/nova/console/websocketproxy.py", line 110, in <module>
    websockify.ProxyRequestHandler):
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'ProxyRequestHandler'
n-novnc failed to start

The websockify package is installed:

openstack at devstack-33:~/devstack$ pip show websockify
---
Name: websockify
Version: 0.5.1
Location: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
Requires: numpy

However, the version required is:

openstack at devstack-33:/opt/stack/nova$ grep websockify requirements.txt
websockify>=0.6.0,<0.7

Any ideas why is does not have the right version and how to best correct?

Thanks!
