istio bookinfo sample application deployment failed for "ImagePullBackOff"-CodePudding

I am trying to deploy istio's sample bookinfo application using the below command:

kubectl apply -f samples/bookinfo/platform/kube/bookinfo.yaml

from here

but each time I am getting ImagePullBackoff error like this:

For error details, I have run :

kubectl describe pod reviews-v1-56f6655686-j7lb6

Which returns these:

Do I need to build dockerfile first and push it to the local repository? There are no clear instructions there or I failed to find any.

Can anybody help?

CodePudding user response：

Solved the problem by below command :

 minikube ssh docker pull istio/examples-bookinfo-reviews-v1:1.17.0

from this git issues here

Also How to use local docker images with Minikube?

Hope this may help somebody

CodePudding user response：

If you check in dockerhub the image is there:

https://hub.docker.com/r/istio/examples-bookinfo-reviews-v1/tags

So the error that you need to deal with is context deadline exceeded while trying to pull it from dockerhub. This is likely a networking error (a generic Go error saying it took too long), depending on where your cluster is running you can do manually a docker pull from the nodes and that should work.

EDIT: for minikube do a minikube ssh and then a docker pull
