Minikube ingress controller not forwarding request to deployed service properly - kubernetes

I have following setup in minikube cluster
SpringBoot app deployed in minikube cluster
name : opaapp and containerPort: 9999
Service use to expose service app as below
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: opaapp
namespace: default
labels:
app: opaapp
spec:
selector:
app: opaapp
ports:
- name: http
port: 9999
targetPort: 9999
type: NodePort
Created an ingreass controller and ingress resource as below
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1beta1 # for versions before 1.14 use extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: opaapp-ingress
annotations:
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: /$1
spec:
rules:
- host: opaapp.info
http:
paths:
- path: /
backend:
serviceName: opaapp
servicePort: 9999
I have setup host file as below
172.17.0.2 opaapp.info
Now, if I access service as below
http://opaapp.info:32746/api/ping : I am getting the response back
But if I try to access as
http://opaapp.info/api/ping : Getting 404 error
Not able to find the error on configuration

The nginx ingress controller has been exposed via NodePort 32746 which means nginx is not listening on port 80/443 in the host's(172.17.0.2) network, rather nginx is listening on port 80/443 on Kubernetes pod network which is different than host network. Hence accessing it via http://opaapp.info/api/ping is not working. To make it work the way you are expecting the nginx ingress controller need to be deployed with hostNetwork: true option so that it can listen on 80/443 port directly in the host(172.17.0.2) network which can be done as discussed here.

Minikube NGINX Ingress return 404 Not Found

I created a deployment, a service and an Ingress to be able to access a NGINX webserver from my host, but I keep getting 404 Not Found. After a lot of hours troubleshooting, I'm getting to a point where some help would be very welcomed.
The steps and related yaml files are below.
Enable Minikube NGINX Ingress controller

Tests
When connecting to one pod and executing curl http://localhost, it return the NGINX homepage html, so the pod looks good.
When creating a testing pod and executing curl http://<service-cluster-ip>, it return the NGINX homepage html, so the service looks good.
When connecting to the ingress nginx controller pod and executing curl http://<service-cluster-ip>, it also return the NGINX homepage html, so the connection between the ingress controller and the service looks good.
When connecting to the control plane with minikube ssh and executing ping <nginx-controller-ip> I see that it reaches the nginx controller.
I tested the same, but with a NodePort Service instead of ClusterIP and noticed that I could access the NGINX homepage using the node port, but not the Ingress port.
Any idea what I could be doing wrong and/or what else I could do to better troubleshoot this issue?
Other notes
minikube version: v1.23.0
kubectl version on the client and server: v1.22.1
OS: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS (Bionic Beaver)
UPDATE/SOLUTION:
The solution was to add the missing annotation kubernetes.io/ingress.class: "nginx" on the Ingress.

K8s service LB to external services w/ nginx-ingress controller

Is it possible to configure k8s nginx-ingress as a LB to have a K8s Service actively connect to external backend hosted on external hosts/ports (where one will be enabled at a time, connecting back to the cluster service)?
Similar to envoy proxy? This is on vanilla K8s, on-prem.
So rather than balance load from
client -> cluster -> service.
I am looking for
service -> nginx-ingress -> external-backend.
Define a Kubernetes Service with no selector. Then you need to define a Endpoint. You can put the IP and port in the Endpoint. Normally you do not define Endpoints for Services but because the Service will not have a Selector you will need to provide an Endpoint with the same name as the Service.
Then you point the Ingress to the Service.
Here's an example that exposes an Ingress on the cluster and sends the traffic to 192.168.88.1 on TCP 8081.
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: router
namespace: default
spec:
ports:
- protocol: TCP
port: 80
targetPort: 8081
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Endpoints
metadata:
name: router
namespace: default
subsets:
- addresses:
- ip: 192.168.88.1
- ip: 192.168.88.2 # As per question below
ports:
- port: 8081
---
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: router
namespace: default
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: "nginx"
spec:
rules:
- host: my-router.domain.com
http:
paths:
- path: /
backend:
serviceName: router
servicePort: 80
While defining ingress use nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/configuration-snippet annotation. Enable also proxy protocol using use-proxy-protocol: "true".
Using this annotation you can add additional configuration to the NGINX location.
Please take a look: ingress-nginx-issue, advanced-configuration-with-annotations.

Ingress without ip address

I create a ingress to expose my internal service.
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: app-ingress
annotations:
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: /
spec:
rules:
- host: example.com
http:
paths:
- path: /app
backend:
serviceName: my-app
servicePort: 80
But when I try to get this ingress, it show it has not ip address.
NAME HOSTS ADDRESS PORTS AGE
app-ingress example.com 80 10h
The service show under below.
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: my-app
spec:
selector:
app: my-app
ports:
- name: my-app
nodePort: 32000
port: 3000
targetPort: 3000
type: NodePort
Note: I'm guessing because of the other question you asked that you are trying to create an ingress on a manually created cluster with kubeadm.
As described in the docs, in order for ingress to work, you need to install ingress controller first. An ingress object itself is merely a configuration slice for the installed ingress controller.
Nginx based controller is one of the most popular choice. Similarly to services, in order to get a single failover-enabled VIP for your ingress, you need to use MetalLB. Otherwise you can deploy ingress-nginx over a node port: see details here
Finally, servicePort in your ingress object should be 3000, same as port of your service.

Nginx Ingress Failing to Serve

I am using the nginx ingress project and my cluster is created using kubeadm with 3 nodes
nginx ingress
I first ran the mandatory command
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/master/deploy/static/mandatory.yaml
when I tried hitting jenkins.xyz.com it didn't work
when I tried the command
kubectl get ing
the ing resource doesnt get an IP address assigned to it
The ingress resource is nothing but the configuration of a reverse proxy (the Ingress controller).
It is normal that the Ingress doesn't get an IP address assigned.
What you need to do is connect to your ingress controller instance(s).
In order to do so, you need to understand how they're exposed in your cluster.
Considering the YAML you claim you used to get the ingress controller running, there is no sign of exposition to the outside network.
You need at least to define a Service to expose your controller (might be a load balancer if the provider where you put your cluster supports it), you can use HostNetwork: true or a NodePort.
To use the latest option (NodePort) you could apply this YAML:
https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/blob/master/deploy/static/provider/baremetal/service-nodeport.yaml
I suggest you read the Ingress documentation page to get a clearer idea about how all this stuff works.
https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/ingress/
In order to access you local Kubernetes Cluster PODs a NodePort needs to be created. The NodePort will publish your service in every node using using its public IP and a port. Then you can access the service using any of the cluster IPs and the assigned port.
Defining a NodePort in Kubernetes:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: nginx-service-np
labels:
name: nginx-service-np
spec:
type: NodePort
ports:
- port: 8082 # Cluster IP, i.e. http://10.103.75.9:8082
targetPort: 8080 # Application port
nodePort: 30000 # (EXTERNAL-IP VirtualBox IPs) i.e. http://192.168.50.11:30000/ http://192.168.50.12:30000/ http://192.168.50.13:30000/
protocol: TCP
name: http
selector:
app: nginx
See a full example with source code at Building a Kubernetes Cluster with Vagrant and Ansible (without Minikube).
The nginx ingress controller can be replaced also with Istio if you want to benefit from a service mesh architecture for:
Load Balance traffic, external o internal
Control failures, retries, routing
Apply limits and monitor network traffic between services
Secure communication
See Installing Istio in Kubernetes under VirtualBox (without Minikube).

How to expose a Ingress for external access in Kubernetes?

I have a kubernetes cluster on a private network(private server, not aws or google cloud) and I created a Service to be able to access, however, I need to be able to access from outside the cluster and for this I created an Ingress and added ingress-nginx in the cluster.
This is the YAML I'm using after making several attempts:
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: demo-ingress
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: "nginx"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect: "false"
spec:
rules:
- host: k8s.local
http:
paths:
- path: /
backend:
serviceName: nginx
servicePort: 80
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: nginx
spec:
type: ClusterIP
selector:
name: nginx
ports:
- port: 80
targetPort: 80
protocol: TCP
# selector:
# app: nginx
---
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: nginx
spec:
replicas: 1
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: nginx
spec:
containers:
- name: echoserver
image: nginx
ports:
- containerPort: 80
I ran yaml like this: kubectl create -f file.yaml
In the /etc/hosts file I added k8s.local to the ip of the master server.
When trying the command in or out of the master server a "Connection refused" message appears:
$ curl http://172.16.0.18:80/ -H 'Host: k8s.local'
I do not know if it's important, but I'm using Flannel in the cluster.
My idea is just to create a 'hello world' and expose it out of the cluster!
Do I need to change anything in the configuration to allow this access?

You can deploy the ingress controller as a daemonset with host port 80. The service of the controller will not matter then. You can point your domain to every node in your cluster
You can do a NodePort type service but that will force you to use some port in the 30k vicinity, you will not be able to use port 80
Of course the best solution is to use a cloud provider with a load balancer
You can make it work with a plain nginx pod but the recommended method is to install a Kubernetes ingress controller, in your case you are using nginx, so you can install an nginx ingress controller.
Here is some information on how to install it.
If you want to allow external access you can also expose the nginx ingress controller as a LoadBalancer service. You can also use NodePort but you will have to manually point a load balancer to the port on your Kubernetes nodes.
And yes the selector on the 'Service' needs to be:
selector:
app: nginx
In this case NodePort would work. It will open a high port number in every node (same port in every node) so you can use any of these nodes. Place a Load Balancer if you want, and point the backend pool to those instances you have running. Do not use ClusterIP, it is just for internal usage.
If you run your cluster baremetal you need to tell the nginx-ingress controller to use hostNetwork: true, to be added in template/spec part of the mandatory.yml
That way the pod running the ingress controller will listen to Port 80 and 443 of the host node.

Is the easiest way of doing what you want.
Note: encryption requires wss:// which requires TLS certs, If you want fully automated encryption + the ability to use Inlets as a Layer 4 LB, you should use Inlets Pro, it's very cheap compared to other cloud alternatives.
I've also been able to setup the oss /non-kubernetes-operator version of Inlets with encryption / wss (web sockets secure), using the open source version of Inlets as a Layer 7 LB. (it just took some manual configuration/wasn't fully automated like the pro version)
https://blog.alexellis.io/https-inlets-local-endpoints/
I was able to get public internet HTTPS + nginx ingress controller to minikube + tested 2 sites routed using ingress objects. In ~3-4 hours with no good guide to doing it / being new to Caddy/Websockets, but expert on Kubernetes Ingress.
Basically:
Step 1.) Create a $0.007/hour or $5/month VPS on Digital Ocean with a public IP
Step 2.) Point mysite1.com, *.mysite1.com, mysite2.com, *.mysite2.com to the public IP of the VPS.
Step 3.) SSH into the machine and install Inlets + Caddy v1.0.3 + Caddyfile here's mine:
mysite1.com, *.mysite1.com, mysite2.com, *.mysite2.com
proxy / 127.0.0.1:8080 {
transparent
}
proxy /tunnel 127.0.0.1:8080 {
transparent
websocket
}
tls {
max_certs 10
}
Step 4.) deploy 1 inlets deployment on kubernetes cluster, use wss to your VPS, and point the inlets deployment to an ingress controller service of type Cluster IP.
The basics of what's happening are:
1.) Caddy leverages Lets Encrypt Free to auto get HTTPS certs for every website you point at the Caddy Server.
2.) Your inlets deployment starts a bidirection VPN tunnel using websockets with the VPS that has a public IP. (Warning the VPN tunnel will only be encrypted if you specify wss, and that requires the server have a TLS cert, which it gets from "LEF")
3.) Caddy is now a public L7 LB/Reverse Proxy that terminates HTTPS, and forwards to your ingress controller over an encrypted websockets VPN tunnel. Then it's normal-ish ingress.
4.) Traffic Flow: DNS -(resolves IP)-> (HTTPS)VPS/L7 ReverseProxy - encrypted VPNtunnel-> Inlets pod from Inlets Deployment -L7 cleartext in cluster network redirect to -> Ingress Controller Service -> Ingress Controller Pod -L7 redirect to-> Cluster IP services/sites defined by ingress objs.
