Kubernetes pods cannot be reached from host but can be reached from node

Time:12-23

It's been some days since I have started to learn Kubernetes. I am a noob in this and don't have any troubleshooting skills or any experience this is my first lab and however I am stuck in my first lab. Now the problem is this I have a VMware workstation where I have hosted my centos box in that box I have installed docker minikube kubectl KVM and then started the lab.

There are two object files which will be shown below ...

vi client-pod.yml

apiVersion: v1 
kind: Pod 
metadata:
  name: client-pod
  labels: 
    components: web

spec:
  containers:
    - name: client 
      image: stephengrider/multi-client 
      ports:
        - containerPort: 3000

vi client-pod.service 
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service 

metadata:
  name: client-node-port

spec: 
  type: NodePort
  ports:
    - port: 3050
      targetPort: 3000
      nodePort: 31515
  selector: 
    component: web

after this I use the

minikube start --driver=kvm 

Then after loading it starts

Then I use these commands

kubectl apply -f client-pod.yml
kubectl apply -f client-pod.service

So after this I use the

minikube ip

I get a IP:192.168.39.107

Then in browser of host when I use http://192.168.39.107:31515 It shows request not completed or something like that

Can anyone tell me whats going on

CodePudding user response:

Your Pod labels and Service selector aren't same.

Either use components: web or component: web in both pod and service.

apiVersion: v1 
kind: Pod 
metadata:
  name: client-pod
  labels: 
    component: web    # updated labels key
...
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service 

metadata:
  name: client-node-port

spec: 
  type: NodePort
  ports:
    - port: 3050
      targetPort: 3000
      nodePort: 31515
  selector: 
    component: web    # it should be same as pod labels 

This should solve your issue.
