couldn't start nova-compute service.

Asked by Seonghoon Moon

Hi, all

There's a problem to start nova-compute service. The following error is appearing on /var/log/nova/nova-compute.log

2012-07-13 21:01:03,806 DEBUG nova [-] compute_manager : nova.compute.manager.ComputeManager from (pid=1616) wait /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/nova/service.py:355

There are no other errors in nova-network nova-scheduler or nova-compute logs in 11~13, however there are errors in 14~16 nova-compute, even though they have same nova.conf.

My nova.conf file is as follows:

thank you for your advice Yaguang. And then I set ntp server up all of nodes same as guide, however it's still not fixed.
Could you let me know, how can I check ntp sync & configure ntp sync?
