Troubleshooting
===============
.. _troubleshooting:
This page contains various tips which can help you troubleshoot and debug
code with interfaces with libcloud.
Debugging
---------
.. _debugging:
.. note::
If you are sharing debug output on our IRC channel or issue tracker using
Pastebin, Github Gists or a similar service, make sure to remove your
credentials and any other data you consider private from the output.
Libcloud has a special debug mode which when enabled outputs all the outgoing
HTTP requests and all the incoming HTTP responses. Output also includes cURL
commands which can be used to re-produce the requests.
When this mode is enabled and if ``paramiko`` library is installed (used for
deployment), paramiko library log level is also set to ``DEBUG`` which helps
with debugging the deployment issues.
To enable it, set ``LIBCLOUD_DEBUG`` environment variable and make it point
to a file where the output should be saved.
For example if you want the output to be logged to the standard error (on
Unix) you can set it to ``/dev/stderr``:
.. sourcecode:: bash
LIBCLOUD_DEBUG=/dev/stderr python my_script.py.
Example output:
.. sourcecode:: bash
