It's OK I could fix it!

It was because I added an endpoint in the keystone endpoint-list.
I think I didn't really understand how to configure networking services and a compute node. I will continue my researches.
Thanks for helping!

Cheers,
Nicolas

We need to go back to figuring out why the instance couldn't be deleted originally.  Do you know how you got it into that state?

If all else fails, the brute force is manually removing the instance from the database and the hypervisor, but you should never have to do that.

Do other nova commands give you that error?  Can you provide the full command and output?
