 Failed to activate image. Got error: Data supplied was not valid. Details: 400 Bad Request  The server could not comply with the request since it is either malformed or otherwise incorrect.   Failed to update image metadata. Got error: Data supplied was not valid. Details: Invalid disk format 'None' for image.    
Note: Your image metadata may still be in the registry, but the image's status will likely be 'killed'.

Not sure which argument went wrong any help appreciated

this is my file

ubuntu@ubuntu:~/images$ file cirros-0.3.1-x86_64-disk.img

One of these options should work:

The command argument names should use underscores (_) instead of dashes (-):

glance add name="CirrOS 0.3.1" disk_format=qcow2 container_format=bare is_public=true < cirros-0.3.1-x86_64-disk.img

Alternatively it might be that the command arguments need to be prefixed with --:

glance add --name="CirrOS 0.3.1" --disk-format=qcow2 --container-format=bare --is-public=true < cirros-0.3.1-x86_64-disk.img
