Init Container expected to be in ready state

Answer 1

The Status field of the initContainer is not relevant here. What you need is that your initContainer is deterministic. Currently your initContainer is running, because the used image is built to run indefinite.
Initcontainers need to built that they run their process and then exit with an exitcode 0. Graphql-engine on the other hand is a container that will run indefinite and provide an API.
What are you trying to accomplish with this graphql-engine pod?
