Question

Kubernetes Dashboard not accessible when providing path in ingress

6/15/2021

I have deployed minikube on Windows VM and the minikube VM is created on Virtualbox with the host-only IP.

I have deployed the Kubernetes dashboard with NodePort IP so I can access it from outside the cluster. The svc is as follows:

PS C:\Users\XXX\Desktop\ingress> kubectl get svc -n kubernetes-dashboard
NAME                        TYPE        CLUSTER-IP      EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)         AGE
dashboard-metrics-scraper   ClusterIP   10.111.167.61   <none>        8000/TCP        5d20h
kubernetes-dashboard        NodePort    10.111.220.57   <none>        443:30613/TCP   5d20h

With the help of the minikube ingress addon, I installed the Ingress controller which is of Nginx. Its svc details are as follows:

PS C:\Users\XXX\Desktop\ingress> kubectl get svc -n ingress-nginx
NAME                                 TYPE        CLUSTER-IP    EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)                      AGE
ingress-nginx-controller             NodePort    10.98.29.41   <none>        80:32628/TCP,443:31194/TCP   5d20h
ingress-nginx-controller-admission   ClusterIP   10.96.35.36   <none>        443/TCP                      5d20h

Then I have created an Ingress Rule for my dashboard application as follows:

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: dashboard-ingress
  namespace: kubernetes-dashboard
  annotations:
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: /
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: "nginx"
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/add-base-url: "true"
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/backend-protocol: "HTTPS"
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/secure-backends: "true"
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/force-ssl-redirect: "true"
    ingress.kubernetes.io/configuration-snippet: |
      rewrite ^(/dashboard)$ $1/ permanent;
spec:
  rules:
  - host: k8s.dashboard.com
    http:
      paths:
      - path: /dashboard
        pathType: Prefix
        backend:
          service:
            name: kubernetes-dashboard
            port:
              number: 443

But now when I am trying to access the dashboard with the following URL https://k8s.dashboard.com/dashboard then I am facing the error of 404 Not Found. I also tried multiple URL to access the dashboard such as :

https://k8s.dashboard.com:30613/dashboard
http://k8s.dashboard.com:30613/dashboard
https://k8s.dashboard.com/dashboard

But this URL is working for me: https://k8s.dashboard.com:30613 I have added the minikube IP to hosts files in the Windows machine. Ingress rule describe the output is as follows:

PS C:\Users\XXX\Desktop\ingress> kubectl describe ingress -n kubernetes-dashboard

                     nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: /

Any help regarding this really helps. Thanks

According to this issue this is a limitation/bug of the kubernetes dashboard.

They suggest using this config as a workaround:

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: kubernetes-dashboard
  labels:
    app.kubernetes.io/name: kubernetes-dashboard  
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
    # Add https backend protocol support for ingress-nginx
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/backend-protocol: "HTTPS"
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/configuration-snippet: |
      proxy_set_header Accept-Encoding "";
      sub_filter '<base href="/">' '<base href="/dashboard/">';
      sub_filter_once on;
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: /$2
spec:
  rules:
    - host: my.example.com
      http:
        paths:
          - path: /dashboard(/|$)(.*)
            backend:
              serviceName: kubernetes-dashboard
              servicePort: 443
