I tried to upload an image file, to a OpenNebula host running CentOS 5.3 with ONE 1.3.8. After a couple of seconds the command exited with the following error:

[rogierm@cloudtest3 ~]$ econe-upload /home/rogierm/centos5.img
image /home/rogierm/centos5.img
/usr/local/one/lib/ruby/econe/EC2QueryClient.rb:164:in `http_post': server returned nothing (no headers, no data) (Curl::Err::GotNothingError)
from /usr/local/one/lib/ruby/econe/EC2QueryClient.rb:164:in `upload_image'
from /usr/local/one/bin/econe-upload:116

I informed the ONE developers of this issue on their mailing list and Sebastien Goasguen pointed me to the correct solution. There seems to be an error in the curl implementation on CentOS. I installed the multipart-post gem and executed the econe-upload with the (yet undocumented) switch ‘-M’. This fixed the problem.

Install gem:

[root@cloudtest3 ~]# gem install multipart-post

Run the working econe-upload command:

[rogierm@cloudtest3 ~]$ econe-upload -M /home/rogierm/centos5.img
