Expecting an auth URL via either os-auth-url or env OS AUTH URL

Expecting an auth URL via either --os-auth-url or env[OS_AUTH_URL

Hi@akhtar,

Probably the OpenStack authentication URLs are not set. Try setting the below environment variables.

export OS_USERNAME=admin
export OS_PASSWORD=keystone_password
export OS_TENANT_NAME=admin
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://controller.node.in:35357/v2.0 

Once the above variables are set in your shell, try registering the glance service to the keystone again. It worked for me. 

$ keystone user-create --name=glance --pass=glance_password --email=admin_email 
Expecting an auth URL via either --os-auth-url or env[OS_AUTH_URL 

You should see table like the one given below.

+----------+----------------------------------+
| Property | Value |
+----------+----------------------------------+ 
| email | admin_email | 
| enabled | True |
| id | c8c0212a16084a65469609c857914f8c | 
| name | glance | 
| username | glance |
+----------+----------------------------------+

Hope this will help.

Thank You
