openshift add service account to deployed app - kubernetes

Question

I'm trying to add a service account to a deployed application but so far I keep getting the "application not available message" I did the following
created service account
oc create sa name-sa
oc add policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z name-sa -n book
add service account to deployed app
oc set serviceacccount deploymentconfig wordapp name-sa
I check the pods and the application is running but I still not able to see any output from the route and the oc desribe pod command doesn't give any errors

Answer 1

I'm not sure that ServiceAccount's permission causes on this matter.
I think first you should check out the relationship of the access flow through Route -> Service -> Pod, and verify your application work well using curl command.
I show you the troubleshooting steps as follows.
Check your Route what Service is bound with it.
In this case, docker-registry Service is associated with the Route.
$ oc describe route <your routename>
:
Service: docker-registry
Weight: 100 (100%)
Endpoints: 10.128.1.94:5000 <--- You can check if this IP is matched with your application pod IP.
Then check the Service whether it can detect Endpoint pods correctly.
$ oc describe svc docker-registry
:
Port: 5000-tcp 5000/TCP
TargetPort: 5000/TCP
Endpoints: 10.128.1.94:5000 <--- You can check if this IP is matched with your application pod IP.
Verify the accessibility for the application on the pod using curl
$ oc rsh <your pod name> curl -vs http://localhost:5000/
:
< HTTP/1.1 200 OK <--- You check if you can get expected response of your application on the pod.
Additionally, you can also check your pod are running with setting SCC permission and ServiceAccount.
4 oc get pod <your podname> -o yaml | grep -E 'scc|serviceAccountName'
openshift.io/scc: anyuid
serviceAccountName: name-sa
