After you first login into OpenStack and start administering it, you may get “Could not find default role “user” in Keystone.

Here is the error:

And here is how to solve it:

If you go to /etc/openstack-dashboard/local-settings file, you should have line OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_DEFAULT_ROLE = “user” in that file.

However, it looks like this role is missing, so, to create it, we need to first execute:

. admin-openrc

and then following command to create role user

openstack role create user

That should resolve your problem, at least it have resolved mine.
