No matches for kind"gateway" and "virtualservice"

10/6/2021

I am using Docker Desktop version 3.6.0 which has Kubernetes 1.21.3.

I am following this tutorial to get started on Istio

https://istio.io/latest/docs/setup/getting-started/

Istio is properly installed as per the instructions.

Now whenever i try to apply the Istio configuration

by issuing the command kubectl apply -f samples/bookinfo/networking/bookinfo-gateway.yaml.

I get the following error

unable to recognize "samples/bookinfo/networking/bookinfo-gateway.yaml": no matches for kind "Gateway" in version "networking.istio.io/v1alpha3"
unable to recognize "samples/bookinfo/networking/bookinfo-gateway.yaml": no matches for kind "VirtualService" in version "networking.istio.io/v1alpha3"

I checked in internet and found that the Gateway and VirtualService resources are missing.

If i perform kubectl get crd i get no resources found

The CRDs for istio should be installed as part of the istioctl install process, I'd recommend re-running the install if you don't have them available.

>>> ~/.istioctl/bin/istioctl install --set profile=demo -y
✔ Istio core installed
✔ Istiod installed
✔ Egress gateways installed
✔ Ingress gateways installed
✔ Installation complete

kubectl get po -n istio-system should look like

>>> kubectl get po -n istio-system
NAME                                   READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
istio-egressgateway-7ddb45fcdf-ctnp5   1/1     Running   0          3m20s
istio-ingressgateway-f7cdcd7dc-zdqhg   1/1     Running   0          3m20s
istiod-788ff675dd-9p75l                1/1     Running   0          3m32s

Otherwise your initial install has gone wrong somewhere.
