I am new to Kubernetes & Docker. I created a simple nodejs application and deployed on BlueMix Kubernetes. But I am unable to accesses the application on internet. The ip & port mentioned in the kubernetes is not accessible. Can somebody help me.
I tried to http://10.76.193.146:31972, but it did not go through. I am not sure if this the public ip as its 10. series.
I also tried the public ip ( http://184.173.1.79:31972 ) mentioned in the blue mix kubernetes cluster - screenshot below. But that too failed.
This are steps I followed.
// Load the http module to create an http server.
var http = require('http');
// Configure our HTTP server to respond with Hello World to all requests.
var server = http.createServer(function (request, response) {
response.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type": "text/plain"});
response.end("Hello World\n");
});
// Listen on port 8000, IP defaults to 127.0.0.1
server.listen(8000);
// Put a friendly message on the terminal
console.log("Server running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/");
---------- package.json

Created a docker container locally and ran the docker. It worked properly
Uploaded the docker container on Bluemix registry as
registry.ng.bluemix.net/testkubernetes/helloworld-nodejs:0.0.1
Created the Nodes and Services in Kubernetes, using the following YAML file
----------Node YAML file
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: helloworld-nodejs
labels:
name: helloworld-nodejs
spec:
containers:
- name: helloworld-nodejs
image: registry.ng.bluemix.net/testkubernetes/helloworld-nodejs:0.0.1
ports:
- containerPort: 8000
---------- Services YAML
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: helloworld-nodejs
labels:
name: helloworld-nodejs
spec:
type: NodePort
selector:
name: helloworld-nodejs
ports:
- port: 8080
Result of kubectl get services & kubectl get nodes command
Since your service's port
is different from your pod's containerPort
, you will have to specify targetPort
in your service.
spec:
type: NodePort
selector:
name: helloworld-nodejs
ports:
- port: 8080
targetPort: 8000
According to the Kubernetes documentation on targetPort
, it is the:
Number or name of the port to access on the pods targeted by the service. .... If this is not specified, the value of the 'port' field is used (an identity map).
