Thanks you katynski for response.

But, I had config Haproxy correctly. Here is my config: http://prntscr.com/k2ofwv

And, when I use openstack command, that is successful. Here: http://prntscr.com/k2ogau

I don’t think I config wrong. I can create, delete, list, show any VM with openstack command successfully.



Thanks and Best Regards!

First of all, it seems that the nova client is hitting /v2.1 instead of /v2.1/ URI and this seems to be triggering the redirect.

Since openstack CLI works, I presume it must be using the correct URL and hence it’s not getting redirected.

Looks to me that nova-api does a redirect to an absolute URL. I suspect SSL is terminated on the HAProxy and nova-api itself is configured without SSL so it redirects to an http URL.

In my opinion, nova would be more load-balancer friendly if it used a relative URI in the redirect but that’s outside of the scope of this question and since I don’t know the context behind choosing the absolute URL, I could be wrong on that.

I had a similar problem with heat-api running behind an Apache reverse proxy, and managed to resolve it by applying the workaround from this bug report:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-heatclient/+bug/1420907

Setting

X-Forwarded-Proto: https 

before forwarding the request to heat-api fixed the issue for me.
