I have a working setup on Minikube with Traefik as ingress controller. I tried to use that setup on Microk8s but Traefik is not able to work and although I can see the Traefik dashboard and it says that everything is working but every time I try to use the ingress urls I face timeout but if I use the endpoint IP of that service (which I can see in the traefik dashboard) I am able to access to that service but not fully. I can have access to IP/service1 but I can't have access to any of its sub urls, IP/service1/sub-service1 not working.

I also tried microk8s.enable ingress but it created an nginx ingress for me and then I disabled it because I want to use traefik.

Do I need to change my configuration so it becomes compatible with Microk8s? If yes how?

I have to mention that I have two ingress files:

• traefik-ui.yaml: which contains both the service and ingress for my traefik. I use this service+ingress to access the traefik dashboard and as I mentioned it works
• wws-ingress.yaml: is my main ingress which enables the communication with my components inside kubernetes and this is the part that doesn't work.

My yaml files:

traefik-ui.yaml:

  namespace: kube-system

Minikube commands (this works without a problem):

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/containous/traefik/v1.7/examples/k8s/traefik-rbac.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/containous/traefik/v1.7/examples/k8s/traefik-ds.yaml

kubectl apply -f traefik-ui.yaml
kubectl apply -f wws-ingress.yaml

And in Microk8s I tried:

microk8s.kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/containous/traefik/v1.7/examples/k8s/traefik-rbac.yaml
microk8s.kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/containous/traefik/v1.7/examples/k8s/traefik-ds.yaml
microk8s.kubectl apply -f traefik-ui.yaml
microk8s.kubectl apply -f wws-ingress.yaml
