Istio destination rule subsets not working

1/15/2019

MY istio destintion rules are not working, getting below error in kiali

enter image description here VirtualService and destination rule for echo service:

My calling echo-svc:8080 and echo-svc:8080/v1 from my another virtualservices , I'm not able to do route in specific version.

When making request from another virtualservice: echo-svc:8080/v1 or echo-svc:8080, I'm getting response from both the subsets.

apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
  name: echo-vsvc
spec:
  hosts:
  - "echo-svc.default.svc.cluster.local"
  http:
  - match:
    - uri:
        prefix: "/v1"
    route:
    - destination:
        host: echo-svc.default.svc.cluster.local
        subset: v1
  - route:
    - destination:
        host: echo-svc.default.svc.cluster.local
        subset: v2

apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3

metadata:
  name: echo-destination

  subsets:
  - name: v1
    labels:
      version: v0.1
  - name: v2
    labels:
      version: v0.2

If I'm attaching my echo-service to gateway and then making service to v1 endpoint via istio-ingress, my all requests are routed to required k8s service, but if it's internal(echo service not attached to gateway) envoy is not routing the requests to required k8s service..

Update:

According to the error the instances of your service are not labeled with version: v0.1 or version: v0.2 and that's why the destination rule cannot find instances for the subset.

Verify that they are labeled by executing:

kubectl get pods --show-labels

And for quick testing you can label them:

kubectl label pod [pod_name] version=v0.1

Found my mistake, for istio destination rules to work be very careful about these: https://istio.io/docs/setup/kubernetes/spec-requirements/.

My mistake was of named port for service. Updating it from "web" to "http-web" worked for me. It should be of form : <protocol>[-<suffix>]
