Unable to edit configmap in kubernetes

10/1/2020

I have a already running kubernetes application(eclipse che) I am editing a configmap with the following command kubectl edit cm/che -n che When I edit and save it, I get a message saying that the configmap is saved. But when I again issue the same command I cannot find my changes. Am I missing some basic step?

use kubectl verbose mode for tracing the problem

kubectl edit cm/che -n che -v9

I guess it could be related to permissions, admission controls, or operator frameworks.

If you have installed Che with operator (through chectl or not), you should change the settings editing the CheCluster custom resource:

kubectl edit CheCluster/eclipse-che -n che

In case you deployed devfile registry with helm and you only need only your devfile registry and not the one provided by che try the following -

  1. Remove the helm chart by helm delete che-devfile-registry -n che
  2. kubectl edit checluster eclipse-che -n che

  3. Add devfileRegistryImage: 'Your devfile Image' under spec: server:

  4. Save

After that go to the default che url you should be able to see your custom stack in the list.
