I tried with different cirros image and with ubuntu cloud image always behavior is the same. Under /var/lib/glance/images file is created with size 0:

Any idea what can be wrong?

Is your filesystem out of space? If you run Glance with debugging enabled, do you see any useful information in the logs? Have you also checked the glance registry log? — larsks, Jan 21 '18 at 03:47
I actually found a solution based on https://ask.openstack.org/en/question/101944/why-does-openstack-image-create-of-cirros-result-in-size-0/?answer=102303#post-id-102303. I found mentioned python script in following location: /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/glanceclient/common/http.py. To find it I basically did find / -name http.py — Andrzej Kozlowski, Jan 21 '18 at 09:45

Find location of python glance client.

find / -name http.py

vi /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/glanceclient/common/http.py

- data = self._chunk_body(data)
+ pass
