We created a kubernetes cluster for a customer about one year ago with two environments; staging and production separated in namespaces. We are currently developing the next version of the application and need an environment for this development work, so we've created a beta environment in its own namespace.
This is a bare metal kubernetes cluster with MetalLB and and nginx-ingress. The nginx ingress controllers is installed with helm and the ingresses are created with the following manifest (namespaces are enforced by our deployment pipeline and are not visible in the manifest):
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: api-ingress
annotations:
#ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect: "true"
#kubernetes.io/tls-acme: "true"
#certmanager.k8s.io/issuer: "letsencrypt-staging"
#certmanager.k8s.io/acme-challenge-type: http01
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/configuration-snippet: |
more_set_headers "X-Robots-Tag: noindex, nofollow";
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/enable-cors: "true"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/cors-allow-methods: "GET, OPTIONS"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/cors-allow-origin: "*"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/cors-allow-credentials: "true"
spec:
tls:
- hosts:
- ${API_DOMAIN}
secretName: api-cert
rules:
- host: ${API_DOMAIN}
http:
paths:
- backend:
serviceName: api
servicePort: 80
When applying the manifest kubernetes responds with the following error:
Error from server (InternalError): error when creating "STDIN": Internal error occurred: failed calling webhook "validate.nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io": Post https://ingress-nginx-controller-admission.ingress-nginx.svc:443/extensions/v1beta1/ingresses?timeout=30s: service "ingress-nginx-controller-admission" not found
I've attempted to update the apiVersion of the ingress manifest to networking.k8s.io/v1beta1
(this is the apiVersion the new nginx-ingress controllers are installed with via helm), but I'm getting the same error.
My initial suspicion is that this is related to a change in the nginx-ingress between the current installation and the installation from one year ago, even if the ingress controllers are separated by namespaces. But i cant find any services called ingress-nginx-controller-admission
in any of my namespaces, so I'm clueless how to proceed.
You can check if there is a validation webhook and a service. If they don't exist double check the deployment and add these.
kubectl get -A ValidatingWebhookConfiguration
NAME CREATED AT
ingress-nginx-admission 2020-04-22T15:01:33Z
kubectl get svc -n ingress-nginx
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
ingress-nginx-controller NodePort 10.96.212.217 <none> 80:32268/TCP,443:32683/TCP 2m34s
ingress-nginx-controller-admission ClusterIP 10.96.151.42 <none> 443/TCP 2m34s
Deployment yamls here have the webhook and service.
Since you have used helm to install it you can enable/disable the webhook via a helm parameter as defined here
I had the same problem and found a solution from another SO thread.
I had previously installed nginx-ingress using the manifests. I deleted the namespace it created, and the clusterrole and clusterrolebinding as noted in the documentation, but that does not remove the ValidatingWebhookConfiguration
that is installed in the manifests, but NOT when using helm by default. As Arghya noted above, it can be enabled using a helm parameter.
Once I deleted the ValidatingWebhookConfiguration
, my helm installation went flawlessly.
kubectl delete -A ValidatingWebhookConfiguration ingress-nginx-admission
