Installing the OpenStack Dashboard
Here are the overall steps for creating the OpenStack dashboard.
Install the OpenStack Dashboard framework including Apache and related modules.
Configure the Dashboard.
Restart and run the Apache server.
Install the OpenStack Dashboard.
sudo apt-get install openstack-dashboard openstackx python-sqlite
Enable the rewrite module for apache: sudo a2enmod rewrite
sudo a2enmod rewrite
Next, create a symbolic link to “dash” with the Apache2 Enable site utility (a2ensite).
sudo a2ensite dash
Disable the “default” site so that the Dashboard can come up as the Apache site’s default.
sudo a2dissite default
