Sensu novaclient connection issues

Hi, I’m having issues with the Openstack featured plugins. I cannot connect to novaclient with my openstack credentials.
I’m using the check from here:

But I’m having issues with this line:

client = Client(NOVA_API_VERSION, args.user, args.password, args.tenant, args.auth_url, service_type=args.service_type)

I’ve run the check with the proper username, password, and tenant. I am using localhost:5000 as the authentication url and compute as the service type.

I confirmed that the username and password were correct by logging in to my horizon dashboard. I am also able to see the list of hypervisors from the dashboard, meaning that I have admin privileges. However, I’m still having trouble authenticating. When I run the check, nothing happens, and when I Ctrl+C, it interrupts with this message:

data = self._sock.recv(self._rbufsize)

I have added a line in my code just to make sure that it’s the authentication that is not working:

if client.authenticate():

print(“worked”)

and this does not work, leading me to believe that it simply can’t authenticate. I have no idea why. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks so much
