I'm trying to set up the automatic sidecar injection for istio on Kubernetes on-premises (istio 1.1.5 k8s 1.13.5).
Once I labeled my namespace as istio-injection=enabled
I got on my pod the following error for istio-sidecar container
Readiness probe failed: HTTP probe failed with status code: 503
If I try to inject manually the sidecar container it works. How can I solve?
I've found the problem. Until then there is not service pointing the container port the istio-proxy container will be in unhealthly status.
Can you remove the label from the node. Instead add istio injector annotation to the deployment manifest.
