Connection timeout on cluster.openBucket call with Couchbase / Kubernetes

4/4/2017

I have deployed a 4 node Couchbase cluster using Google GKE. The master node exposes ports 8091, 8093 to the Loadbaancer. When connecting to the Loadbalancer IP (external) via a Java app to insert data, I get the timeout error with this stack:

Apr 04, 2017 3:32:15 PM com.couchbase.client.core.endpoint.AbstractEndpoint$2 operationComplete
WARNING: [null][ViewEndpoint]: Socket connect took longer than specified timeout.
Apr 04, 2017 3:32:15 PM com.couchbase.client.core.endpoint.AbstractEndpoint$2 operationComplete
WARNING: [null][KeyValueEndpoint]: Socket connect took longer than specified timeout.
Apr 04, 2017 3:32:15 PM com.couchbase.client.deps.io.netty.util.concurrent.DefaultPromise notifyListener0
WARNING: An exception was thrown by com.couchbase.client.core.endpoint.AbstractEndpoint$2.operationComplete()
rx.exceptions.OnErrorNotImplementedException: connection timed out: /10.4.0.3:8093
    at rx.Observable$26.onError(Observable.java:7955)

    at rx.observers.SafeSubscriber.onError(SafeSubscriber.java:120)
    at rx.internal.operators.OperatorMap$1.onError(OperatorMap.java:48)

What's puzzling is that the stack shows 10.4.0.3:8093 which is actually the the IP of the docker container. Appreciate all suggestions.

Have you checked the firewall rules for the master node and the workers? You need to allow ingress for the ports you have set up.
