I am playing with kubenetes. I have created a StatefulSet running postgresql. I have created a service with ClusterIP: None
. I have launched a pod with pgadmin4. I can get to pgadmin from my browser. When I try to get to my pgsql server from pgadmin, it tells me that either the ip or the port are not accessible. The error message displays the ip address, so I know that it is resolving the right pod name.
This is MicroK8s on Ubuntu.
Here are my configs.

I am able to see the ip addresses through dig
microk8s.kubectl run `
--namespace pomodoro-services `
-it srvlookup `
--image=tutum/dnsutils --rm `
--restart=Never `
-- dig SRV pomodoro-pgsql.pomodoro-services.svc.cluster.local
Here is the error from pgadmin. Note that the IP is correct for the pod.
Unable to connect to server:
could not connect to server: Operation timed out
Is the server running on host "pomodoro-pgsql-0.pomodoro-pgsql.pomodoro-
services.svc.cluster.local" (10.10.10.219) and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
Here are the logs from the pgsql pod

As requested, here are the results from kubectl get services
(IPs have been changed.)

[update 1/2/2019] I connected to another container in the cluster and tried to telnet
, and then to psql
into postgres. I could not connect with either program. I could run psql on the container running the postgresql server. My current theory is that the server has exposed 5432 locally, but it is filtered from other pods.
I have confirmed that /var/lib/postgresql/data/postgresql.conf
contains the following:
listen_addresses = '*'
Using microk8s.kubctl port-forward pomodoro-pgsql-0 5432:5432
I was able to connect to 5432 through telnet.
_> telnet localhost 5432
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

Note: IPs change when computer is restarted.
The problem was a firewall rule for the computer running microk8s. I found out that this is documented on their web page where the docs tell us to do this:
sudo iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
sudo apt-get install iptables-persistent
