[Help needed] Can’t access Endpoint of Springboot webservice from ingress

Hi Everyone,

I tried to set up a quick microK8s cluster on my local machine to introduce Kubernetes in a meetup on my company. So I create a little helloworld webservice with Springboot with 2 entrypoints and some actuator entrypoints

I deployed my app on my microk8s cluster with some resources yaml files:

• deployment.yml
• service.yml
• ingress.yml

This is my microk8s configuration:

microk8s.kubectl version
Client Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"14", GitVersion:"v1.14.1", GitCommit:"b7394102d6ef778017f2ca4046abbaa23b88c290", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2019-04-08T17:11:31Z", GoVersion:"go1.12.1", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"linux/amd64"}
Server Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"14", GitVersion:"v1.14.1", GitCommit:"b7394102d6ef778017f2ca4046abbaa23b88c290", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2019-04-08T17:02:58Z", GoVersion:"go1.12.1", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"linux/amd64"}

microk8s.status --yaml
microk8s:
  running: true

  jaeger: disabled
  fluentd: disabled
  gpu: disabled
  storage: disabled
  registry: disabled
  ingress: enabled

  metrics-server: disabled
  prometheus: disabled
  istio: disabled

And my app configuration:

When I call an endpoint to the webservice using the IP defined in the service resource (10.152.183.140) on port 81, it’s working fine, but when I try to call it from localhost on port 80 as it is defined on Ingress, I have a default backend - 404

I suppose I didn’t set correctly my ingress but don’t understand what’s happening. Can someone help me on this ?

You can have a cluster with multiple nginx ingress controllers. Each serving different tenants.
But frankly, i have not tried running multilple nginx ingress controllers.😁

Since microk8s does not specify the ingress-class in the ingress.yaml, then you dont need to specify the ingress-class annotation as well. That’s why removing the annotation works.

@winael you’re most welcome! 😁
