Issue with os_server module

[Goldberg Eduard]

Hi,

I'm trying to launch an instance using os_server module

Using simple playbook

- name: create openstack instance

  hosts: local_host

  tasks:

  - name: launch instance

    os_server:

       auth:

         auth_url: http://<some url>

         username: ansible

         password: ansible

         project_name: ansible

       state: present

       name: ldap_client

       image: 0b9d8320-93f7-4814-a03d-4c51f15bab84

       key_name: ansible_key

       timeout: 200

       flavor: 2

       nics:

         - net-id: 1446ba1c-341c-4633-84ba-ac0787d162a2

         - net-name: private

       security_groups: default

       meta:

         hostname: ldap_client

       wait: yes

Getting following syntax error in shade when running

 ansible-playbook -v -i hosts new_openstack_instance.yml

PLAY [create openstack instance] **********************************************

           to retry, use: --limit @/root/new_openstack_instance.retry

localhost                  : ok=1    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=1

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

That looks like a bug in the shade library, its also a bug in Ansible
because we should not throw an 'unwrapped traceback'.

though to be fair, a syntax error in a library you re importing should
only happen when you are developing said library.

The problem is that the shade module requires python 2.7 as it stands.  I believe there is a PR for shade module to support python 2.6.
