I am trying to deploy a spring boot netflix OSS discovery server on kubernetes. The server deploys fine and my apps register with the server and I even get an instance url back when I query the using the Eureka client.
@Autowired
private EurekaClient discoveryClient;
@GetMapping("/get_instance/")
public String serviceUrl() {
return getUrlFromEureka();
}
private String getUrlFromEureka() {
InstanceInfo instance = discoveryClient.getNextServerFromEureka("DEMO-SERVER", false);
return instance.getHomePageUrl();
}
This returns a url like this http://demo-server-86c7cd568-xzzgt:8080/
This returns the name of the pod and the ports it is on so I try to query this to get response from the server but it times out. This is the method I use
@GetMapping("/get-from-demo-server")
public String getFromDemoServer(){
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
return restTemplate.getForObject(getUrlFromEureka(), String.class);
}
I deploy the discovery server and the spring boot apps to the same k8's environment.
Here is my bootstrap.yml for eureka server.
Here is a screen shot of the eureka server running in k8's. screenshot
This is all running in my local minikube environment. Thanks for any help that I receive.
Here is the dependencies for my client

The issue is by default the client prefers the hostname and not the ip. You can override that with a spring property. eureka.instance.prefer-ip-address= true
. This worked perfect for my use case.
