Kubernetes - 'ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS' error

1/26/2021

I am using ingress-nginx for my kubernetes cluster with AWS tls certificate .

Both the frontend and backend services are running inside the cluster.

I am able to view the frontend but when it interacts with backend it throws the error :

ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

Which URL did you define in backend ? if it's www.example.com, then remove - example.com line.

I think you should remove aline in this:

spec:
  tls:
  - hosts:
      - example.com
      - www.example.com

Remove : - example.com then check again.

OR you keep both hosts: but reconfigure this : nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/from-to-www-redirect: "false"
