I'm trying to install kubernetes with kubelet 1.4.5 on CoreOS beta (1192.2.0).
I'm using a slightly modified version of the controller and worker install scripts from https://github.com/coreos/coreos-kubernetes/tree/master/multi-node/generic
so in general I created the licenses on Gentoo Linux using the following bash script:
#!/bin/bash
export MASTER_HOST=coreos-2.tux-in.com
export K8S_SERVICE_IP=10.3.0.1
export WORKER_IP=10.79.218.3
export WORKER_FQDN=coreos-3.tux-in.com
openssl genrsa -out ca-key.pem 2048
openssl req -x509 -new -nodes -key ca-key.pem -days 10000 -out ca.pem -subj "/CN=kube-ca"
openssl genrsa -out apiserver-key.pem 2048
openssl req -new -key apiserver-key.pem -out apiserver.csr -subj "/CN=kube-apiserver" -config openssl.cnf
openssl x509 -req -in apiserver.csr -CA ca.pem -CAkey ca-key.pem -CAcreateserial -out apiserver.pem -days 365 -extensions v3_req -extfile openssl.cnf
openssl genrsa -out ${WORKER_FQDN}-worker-key.pem 2048
openssl req -new -key ${WORKER_FQDN}-worker-key.pem -out ${WORKER_FQDN}-worker.csr -subj "/CN=${WORKER_FQDN}" -config worker-openssl.cnf
openssl x509 -req -in ${WORKER_FQDN}-worker.csr -CA ca.pem -CAkey ca-key.pem -CAcreateserial -out ${WORKER_FQDN}-worker.pem -days 365 -extensions v3_req -extfile worker-openssl.cnf
openssl genrsa -out admin-key.pem 2048
openssl req -new -key admin-key.pem -out admin.csr -subj "/CN=kube-admin"
openssl x509 -req -in admin.csr -CA ca.pem -CAkey ca-key.pem -CAcreateserial -out admin.pem -days 365
echo done
and this is openssl.cnf
[req]
req_extensions = v3_req
distinguished_name = req_distinguished_name
[req_distinguished_name]
[ v3_req ]
basicConstraints = CA:FALSE
keyUsage = nonRepudiation, digitalSignature, keyEncipherment
subjectAltName = @alt_names
[alt_names]
DNS.1 = coreos-2.tux-in.com
DNS.2 = coreos-3.tux-in.com
IP.1 = 10.3.0.1
IP.2 = 10.79.218.2
IP.3 = 10.79.218.3
and this is my worker-openssl.cnf
[req]
req_extensions = v3_req
distinguished_name = req_distinguished_name
[req_distinguished_name]
[ v3_req ]
basicConstraints = CA:FALSE
keyUsage = nonRepudiation, digitalSignature, keyEncipherment
subjectAltName = @alt_names
[alt_names]
IP.1 = 10.79.218.3
DNS.1 = coreos-3.tux-in.com
My controller machine is coreos-2.tux-in.com
which resolves to the lan ip 10.79.218.2
my worker machine is coreos-3.tux-in.com
which resolves to lan ip 10.79.218.3
it created the licenses just fine. but when I use them and install the controller script on the main machine, i see that when I run journalctl -xef -u kubelet
and I noticed the following messages:

Your OpenSSL certificates are "self-signed":
openssl genrsa -out ca-key.pem 2048
openssl req -x509 -new -nodes -key ca-key.pem -days 10000 -out ca.pem -subj "/CN=kube-ca"
That is to say, you are signing them instead of a trusted certificate authority. It should be completely fine and safe, as long as you keep the private keys safe.
If you want it to be signed by a certificate authority, you will need to generate a CSR (certificate signing request).
in general the solution was to create another etcd2 port that attaches to loopback device of each machine and works on http
instead of https
. more information at calico-policy-controller requests etcd2 certificates of a different coreos server
I'm using kubelet with rkt on CoreOS 1192.2.0.
This is the unit i use to start kubelet on the worker:
[Unit]
Description=Kubelet via Hyperkube ACI
Requires=k8s-assets.target
After=k8s-assets.target
[Service]
EnvironmentFile=/etc/proxy.env
Environment="RKT_OPTS=--volume=resolv,kind=host,source=/etc/resolv.conf --mount volume=resolv,target=/etc/resolv.conf --volume var-log,kind=host,source=/var/log --mount volume=var-log,target=/var/log"
Environment=KUBELET_VERSION=v1.4.0_coreos.0
ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/mkdir -p /etc/kubernetes/manifests
ExecStart=/usr/lib/coreos/kubelet-wrapper \
--api-servers=https://10.203.69.108 \
--register-node=true \
--allow-privileged=true \
--config=/etc/kubernetes/manifests \
--hostname-override=node2.my.domain \
--cluster_dns=10.3.0.10 \
--cluster_domain=cluster.local \
--kubeconfig=/etc/kubernetes/worker-kubeconfig.yaml \
--tls-cert-file=/etc/kubernetes/ssl/worker.pem \
--tls-private-key-file=/etc/kubernetes/ssl/worker-key.pem
Restart=always
RestartSec=10
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
What is important is
--api-servers that must point to the IP address of the master
--tls-cert-file that must point to the worker certificate public key
--tls-private-key-file that must point to the worker certificate private key
--kubeconfig that must point to a valid kubeconfig file
Here my kubeconfig file (it contain the path to the CA that have signed the certificates):
apiVersion: v1
kind: Config
clusters:
- name: local
cluster:
certificate-authority: /etc/kubernetes/ssl/ca.pem
users:
- name: kubelet
user:
client-certificate: /etc/kubernetes/ssl/worker.pem
client-key: /etc/kubernetes/ssl/worker-key.pem
contexts:
- context:
cluster: local
user: kubelet
name: kubelet-context
current-context: kubelet-context
0. if your issue is :
: Unable to connect to the server: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority (possibly because of "x509: invalid signature: parent certificate cannot sign this kind of certificate"
1. look at your ca.crt
openssl x509 -noout -text -in ca.crt, you will find below info :
X509v3 Basic Constraints:
CA:FLASE
X509v3 Basic Constraints means :
"Basic Constraints" identifies if the subject of certificates is a CA who is allowed to issue child certificates. For a certificate that can be used to sign certificates, the info is in some sense duplicated: X509v3 Basic Constraints: CA: TRUE --- Can sign certificates.
you should modify it to CA:TRUE through vi openssl.conf
[ v3_ca ]
basicConstraints = CA:true
Regenerate your crts.
The kubelet documentation says that the --tls-cert-file
flag needs the CA be concatenated after the certificate. In you case it is the apiserver.pem
:
--tls-cert-file File containing x509 Certificate for HTTPS. (CA cert, if any, concatenated after server cert). If --tls-cert-file and --tls-private-key-file are not provided, a self-signed certificate and key are generated for the public address and saved to the directory passed to --cert-dir.
If I read you certificate generation correctly, the apiserver.pem
doesn't contain the root ca.
