I inherited a Kubernetes/Docker setup. I am trying to recreate a dev environmental exactly as it is (with a new name) on a separate cluster. Sorry if my question is a bit ignorant, while I've mostly picked up Kubernetes/Docker, I'm still pretty new at it.

I've copied all of the information over to the cluster and launched it via kubectl and the old YAML. I am also using the old image file, which should contain the relevant secrets to my knowledge

However, I am getting an error about a missing secret, db-user-pass.

I have checked the included secrets directory in my state store for KOPS (on S3)

What exactly am I misunderstanding here? Is it maybe that Kubernetes is trying to assign a variable based on a value in my YAML, which is also set on the Docker image, but isn't available to Kubernetes? Should I just copy all of the secrets manually from one pod to another (or export to YAML and include in my application).

I'm strongly guessing that export + put into my existing setup is probably the best way forward to give all of the credentials to the pod.

Any guidance or ideas would be welcome here.
