I have a jhipster generated microservice gateway and application that I run in Google's GKE by using the jhipster kubernetes generator. I have istio deployed in the kubernetes cluster and not using the jhipster-registry.

When I deploy the gateway with ServiceType=Ingress, the communication between the gateway and the application works great. I am trying to get up a GKE multi-cluster ingress which load balances the application deployed in clusters in different regions.

Google has a beta tool called kubemci which sets up all the plumbing for the load balancers. However, in order to use kubemci, the gateway needs to be deployed as a NodePort instead of ClusterIP. When I deploy with ServiceType=NodePort, I get errors when trying to create entities.

The error is:

translation-not-found[Http failure response for http://store.xxxx.com/product04/api/products?page=0&size=20&sort=id,asc: 404 Not Found]

I do not get this error when the app is deployed as a ClusterIP and I access it through the istio ingress gateway. Does anyone know what I need to do get the microservices to talk to the gateway when its defined as a NodePort?
