Terremark authentication example using libcloud ...
Hello friends:
I was wondering if anyone had a Terremark libcloud authentication
example, similar to the ones indicated here for Amazon EC2 and Rackspace:
http://libcloud.apache.org/getting-started.html
I've tried a few variations of the examples provided in the above link for
the Terremark case (a vCloud API implementation), but received an "Invalid
Credentials with the provider" Exception in each case.
So far I've tried passing Authentication using the three (3) variations
shown below (commented out) for "conn = Driver()".
Thank you in advance!

#! /usr/bin/env python3

#
TERREMARK_USERNAME = "some@email.address"
TERREMARK_PASSWORD = "some-password"
TERREMARK_B64AUTH = base64.b64encode(bytes(TERREMARK_USERNAME + ":" + TERREMARK_PASSWORD, encoding='utf-8'))
#
Driver = libcloud.compute.providers.get_driver(libcloud.compute.providers.Provider.TERREMARK)
#conn = Driver(TERREMARK_USERNAME, TERREMARK_PASSWORD)
#conn = Driver(TERREMARK_B64AUTH)
#conn = Driver(TERREMARK_USERNAME + ":" + TERREMARK_PASSWORD)

Hi Noel,
That narrows down the issue to obtaining an authentication token (via
_get_auth_token) which is the very first thing libcloud vCloud driver
needs to do before it can issue subsequent HTTP calls. Note this is
the only time when your base64 encoded "user:pass" will be sent in a
HTTP request. What is failing is the fact API web service is not
accepting your credentials and replying with an authentication token
to be used in subsequent HTTP requests.
Couple of things to consider:
- Is the API username equal to the full email address?
- Try reproducing the failure using Python 2.6/2.7
- Verify your base64 encoded string in curl request body matches your
"username:password"
import base64
base64.b64decode("auth string")
- Comment out this section of _get_auth_headers from vcloud.py "
'Accept': 'application/*+xml' " and retry authenticating
- HTTP call is doing the right thing according to Terremark's v0.8 API
doc (a POST to the right URL with right base64 encoding), however I
have noticed Terremark's developer forum has a few older threads
describing similar API auth issues which were fixed by support staff.
Might be worth double checking there is no active issue at the API
end.
There was no Providers.VCLOUD until we've introduced vCloud v1.5
support (which is only in trunk right now).
Looks like you should not need VERIFY_SSL_CERT = False as Terremark
seem to have a signed SSL cert @
https://services.vcloudexpress.terremark.com
For reference here's the full request/response body I receive for a
dummy "user:pass" see how it compares:
# -------- begin 47775432 request ----------
curl -i -X POST -H 'Content-Length: 0' -H 'X-LC-Request-ID: 47775432'

PS... Ignore my comment about "conn.list_sizes()" in the below
code not generating a HTTP call. I looked at the base.py source
and see that my usage (of the returned class) below is slightly
off. :)
My original auth problem below still remains. I continue to
investigate it.
Thanks again,

Hello Sengork:
Thank you for the reply. I'll formulate this reply in "PARTS" for
clarity.
=============
PART1:
=============
Thanks for the gentle reminder to include the libcloud
version, which I should have originally stated is
version "0.9.1" for python3. Obtained via: >>> libcloud.__version__
=============
PART2:
=============
Per your example below, I tried running it again, this time by
inserting the following prior to the get_driver() call:
libcloud.security.VERIFY_SSL_CERT = False
Sadly, it did not resolve the issue. Here again, for referential
convenience, is the cleaned up code (including my
in-line comments where the exception is being raised):

The exception, with or without the VERIFY_SSL_CERT flag, is the same and

Finally, just a note that in v0.9.1 of libcloud, the source file
/usr/lib/python3.2/site-packages/libcloud/compute/providers.py
doesn't have a dict() entry for Providers.VCLOUD, so I couldn't try
your included example (... Just for grins -- it would not have worked
for TERREMARK anyay, since they use a modified version of the
vCloud API). Just a side note that Providers.VCLOUD was not there.
Thank you in advance again Sengork, et. al.

Re: Terremark authentication example using libcloud ...
Posted by Sengor <se...@gmail.com>.
Hi,
I've not used the Terremark variant of vCloud driver, but this is what
should work:
conn = Driver(TERREMARK_USERNAME, TERREMARK_PASSWORD)
The driver will perform base64 encoding and joining "user:name" on your
behalf.
As an example this is what's done for vCloud v1.5:
from libcloud.compute.types import Provider
from libcloud.compute.providers import get_driver
# Do this only if API has self signed SSL certificate
import libcloud.security
libcloud.security.VERIFY_SSL_CERT = False
Driver = get_driver(Provider.VCLOUD)
conn = Driver("user@organisation", "password", host="hostname.com",
api_version="1.5")
conn.list_images()
You should not need api_version and host for v0.8.
I suggest that you enable libcloud debugging and observe the raw API
request/responses for any hints as to the cause of the issue.
$ export LIBCLOUD_DEBUG=/tmp/raw
$ tail -f /tmp/raw
$ python
.....
Please also let us know which version of libcloud are you using?
