I created a pod following a RedHat blog post and created a subsequent pod using the YAML file
Post: https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/compose-podman-pods
When creating the pod using the commands, the pod works fine (can access localhost:8080)
When creating the pod using the YAML file, I get error 403 forbidden
I have tried this on two different hosts (both creating pod from scratch and using YAML), deleting all images and pod each time to make sure nothing was influencing the process
I'm using podman 2.0.4
on Ubuntu 20.04
Commands:
podman create --name wptestpod -p 8080:80
podman run \
-d --restart=always --pod=wptestpod \
-e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD="myrootpass" \
-e MYSQL_DATABASE="wp" \
-e MYSQL_USER="wordpress" \
-e MYSQL_PASSWORD="w0rdpr3ss" \
--name=wptest-db mariadb
podman run \
-d --restart=always --pod=wptestpod \
-e WORDPRESS_DB_NAME="wp" \
-e WORDPRESS_DB_USER="wordpress" \
-e WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD="w0rdpr3ss" \
-e WORDPRESS_DB_HOST="127.0.0.1" \
--name wptest-web wordpress

Can anyone see why this pod would not work when created using the YAML file, but works fine when created using the commands? It seems like a good workflow, but it's useless if the pods produced with the YAML are non-functional.
I found the same article, and the same problem than you. None of the following tests worked for me:
restartPolicy
partcapabilities
partAs soon as you move back the command
part, everything fires up again.
Check it with the following wordpress.yaml
:
# Generation of Kubernetes YAML is still under development!
#
# Save the output of this file and use kubectl create -f to import
# it into Kubernetes.

A bit more explanation about the bug:
The problem is that entrypoint
and cmd
are not parsed correctly from the images, as it should and you would expect. It was working on previous versions, and it is already identified and fixed for the future ones.
