I'm trying to deploy postgres/postgis on GKE, but I continue to get the permission error: initdb: could not change permissions of directory "/var/lib/postgresql/data": Operation not permitted
. I've tried various fixes that I've researched but I've yet to get passed this error. Below is my deployment yaml.
What am I missing?
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1

While it is not exactly the same question, this "use an initContainer:
to chmod
" answer will interest you: chown: changing ownership of '/data/db': Operation not permitted
