istio rules doesn't works from external calls - kubernetes

I want that all ingress traffic for specific service is served by version 8 of this service.
Service is reachable from outside with following host:
my.ciro.it
If I call my.ciro.it I can see that rules works fine.Always respondes with 8 version. If I call my.ciro.it from other service (my2.ciro.it) rules doesn't works and service respondes alternative with version 8 or 9.
This is my virtual service and destination rules:
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: DestinationRule
metadata:
name: ciro-service2-destination-rules
spec:
host: ciro-service2.myns.svc.cluster.local
subsets:
- labels:
version: v8
name: v8
- labels:
version: v9
name: v9
trafficPolicy:
tls:
mode: DISABLE
---
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
name: ciro-service2-virtual-service
spec:
hosts:
- my.ciro.it
gateways:
- ciro-service2-gateway
http:
- match:
- uri:
prefix: /
route:
- destination:
host: ciro-service2.myns.svc.cluster.local
subset: v8
port:
number: 8082
weight: 100
- destination:
host: ciro-service2.myns.svc.cluster.local
subset: v9
port:
number: 8082
weight: 0
add gateway
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: Gateway
metadata:
name: ciro-service2-gateway
spec:
selector:
istio: ingressgateway # use istio default controller
servers:
- port:
number: 80
name: http
protocol: HTTP
hosts:
- "my.ciro.it"
---

The hosts in Your yaml files is my.ciro.it. Which does not match with my2.ciro.it. If Your plan is to use these rules on both sub-domains hosts You can use wildcard hosts:
...
spec:
hosts:
- *.ciro.it
...
Otherwise You should have:
...
spec:
hosts:
- my2.ciro.it
...

The solution is very simple.
gateways:
- ciro-service2-gateway
- mesh
Add mesh gateway, the rules also applied on internal calls.

using backtrack regex in istio

We are migrating from ingress-nginx to istio. While migrating existing ingress definitions to istio VirtualServices, we came across nginx style rewriting and wanted to achieve the same in istio. When researched it was found that istio doesn't support backtrack replacement. There is an open bug regarding the same in istio. People suggest to handle this via enjoy filters. Since I'm new to istio I've tried creating an Envoy filter but still, the URL returns 404.
Here is the sample ingress-nginx definition that we want to convert
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: /$2
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/configuration-snippet: |
rewrite ^(/sample)$ $1/ permanent;
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-read-timeout: "3600"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-send-timeout: "3600"

rules:
- host: abc.example.com
http:
paths:
- backend:
service:
name: sample-ingress
port:
number: 80
path: /sample(/|$)(.*)
pathType: ImplementationSpecific
Here is the Envoy filter that was created to handle Reference
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: EnvoyFilter
metadata:
name: sample-filter
spec:
configPatches:
- applyTo: HTTP_ROUTE

max_program_size: 100
regex: "^/sample(/|$)(.*)$"
substitution: "/\\2"

app: sample
we also tried the following as well Reference
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: EnvoyFilter
metadata:
name: sample-filter
spec:

regex: "^/sample(/|$)(.*)$"

Here is the Virtual Service:
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
name: sample-vs
namespace: default
spec:
hosts:
- "*.xyz.com"
gateways:
- sample-gateway
http:
- name: sample
match:
- uri:
regex: /sample(/|$)(.*)
rewrite:
uri: /$2
route:
- destination:
host: sample
port:
number: 80
Gateway
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: Gateway
metadata:
name: sample-gateway
namespace: default
spec:
selector:
istio: ingressgateway # use istio default controller
servers:
- port:
number: 80
name: http
protocol: HTTP
tls:
httpsRedirect: true
hosts:
- "*.xyz.com"
- port:
number: 443
name: https
protocol: HTTPS
tls:
mode: SIMPLE
credentialName: sample-ssl
hosts:
- "*.xyz.com"
Api REquests with Both the Envoyfilter returns 404. Not sure how to make this work with istio.
Finally, I was able to crack it down. It's actually simple. We can just use rewrite along with match in virtual service and there is no need to complicate it using filter. Here is the virtual service.
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
name: sample-vs
namespace: default
spec:
hosts:
- "*.xyz.com"
gateways:
- sample-gateway
http:
- name: sample-trailing
match:
- uri:
prefix: /sample
redirect:
uri: /sample/ # This ensures that the trailing slash is added to the path. same as **rewrite ^(/sample)$ $1/ permanent;**
- name: sample
match:
- uri:
prefix: /sample/
rewrite:
uri: / #This ensures that internally it gets routed to **/$2**
route:
- destination:
host: sample
port:
number: 80
We are misguided by rewrite here we think rewrite rewrites the HTTP URL in the browser whereas it actually rewrites and forwards the request to the respective destination.

istio VirtualService is not working for my configuration

I have a digitalocean kubernetes cluster with istio installed on it. I get 404 not found error on accessing the apis on the postman application. Here's my vs-gateway yaml file:
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3

How to access the prometheus & grafana via Istion ingress gateway? I have installed the promethius anfd grafana through Helm

I used below command to bring up the pod:
kubectl create deployment grafana --image=docker.io/grafana/grafana:5.4.3 -n monitoring
Then I used below command to create custerIp:
kubectl expose deployment grafana --type=ClusterIP --port=80 --target-port=3000 --protocol=TCP -n monitoring
Then I have used below virtual service:
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
name: grafana
spec:
hosts:
- "*"
gateways:
- cogtiler-gateway.skydeck
http:
- match:
- uri:
prefix: /grafana
route:
- destination:
port:
number: 3000
host: grafana
kubectl apply -f grafana-virtualservice.yaml -n monitoring
Output:
virtualservice.networking.istio.io/grafana created
Now, when I try to access it, I get below error from grafana:
**If you're seeing this Grafana has failed to load its application files
1. This could be caused by your reverse proxy settings.
2. If you host grafana under subpath make sure your grafana.ini root_path setting includes subpath
3. If you have a local dev build make sure you build frontend using: npm run dev, npm run watch, or npm run build
4. Sometimes restarting grafana-server can help **
The easiest and working out of the box solution to configure that would be with a grafana host and / prefix.
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: Gateway
metadata:
name: grafana-gateway
namespace: monitoring
spec:
selector:
istio: ingressgateway
servers:
- port:
number: 80
name: http-grafana
protocol: HTTP
hosts:
- "*"
---
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
name: grafana-vs
namespace: monitoring
spec:
hosts:

gateways:
- grafana-gateway
http:
- match:
- uri:
prefix: /
route:
- destination:
host: grafana
port:
number: 80
As you mentioned in the comments, I want to use path based routing something like my.com/grafana, that's also possible to configure. You can use istio rewrite to configure that.
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: Gateway
metadata:
name: grafana-gateway
namespace: monitoring
spec:
selector:
istio: ingressgateway
servers:
- port:
number: 80
name: http-grafana
protocol: HTTP
hosts:
- "*"
---
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
name: grafana-vs
namespace: monitoring
spec:
hosts:
- "*"
gateways:
- grafana-gateway
http:
- match:
- uri:
prefix: /grafana
rewrite:
uri: /
route:
- destination:
host: grafana
port:
number: 80
But, according to this github issue you would have also additionally configure grafana for that. As without the proper grafana configuration that won't work correctly.
I found a way to configure grafana with different url with the following env variable GF_SERVER_ROOT_URL in grafana deployment.
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
creationTimestamp: null
labels:
app: grafana
name: grafana
spec:
replicas: 1
selector:
matchLabels:
app: grafana
strategy: {}
template:
metadata:
creationTimestamp: null
labels:
app: grafana
spec:
containers:
- image: docker.io/grafana/grafana:5.4.3
name: grafana
env:
- name: GF_SERVER_ROOT_URL
value: "%(protocol)s://%(domain)s/grafana/"
resources: {}
Also there is a Virtual Service and Gateway for that deployment.
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: Gateway
metadata:
name: grafana-gateway
spec:
selector:
istio: ingressgateway
servers:
- port:
number: 80
name: http-grafana
protocol: HTTP
hosts:
- "*"
---
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
name: grafana-vs
spec:
hosts:
- "*"
gateways:
- grafana-gateway
http:
- match:
- uri:
prefix: /grafana/
rewrite:
uri: /
route:
- destination:
host: grafana
port:
number: 80
You need to create a Gateway to allow routing between the istio-ingressgateway and your VirtualService.
Something in the lines of :
kind: Gateway
metadata:
name: ingress
namespace: istio-system
spec:
selector:
# Make sure that the istio-ingressgateway pods have this label
istio: ingressgateway
servers:
- port:
number: 80
name: http
protocol: HTTP
hosts:
- my.domain.com
You also need a DNS entry for your domain (my-domain.com) that points to the IP address of your istio-ingressgateway.
When your browser will hit my.domain.com, then it'll be redirected to the istio-ingressgateway. The istio-ingressgateway will inspect the Host field from the request, and redirect the request to grafana (according to VirtualService rules).
You can check kubectl get svc -n istio-system | grep istio-ingressgateway to get the public IP of your ingress gateway.
If you want to enable TLS, then you need to provision a TLS certificate for your domain (most easy with cert-manager). Then you can use https redirect in your gateway, like so :
kind: Gateway
metadata:
name: ingress
namespace: whatever
spec:
selector:
# Make sure that the istio-ingressgateway pods have this label
istio: ingressgateway
servers:
- port:
number: 80
name: http
protocol: HTTP
hosts:
- my.domain.com
tls:
httpsRedirect: true
- port:
number: 443
name: https
protocol: HTTPS
hosts:
- my.domain.com
tls:
mode: SIMPLE
# name of the secret containing the TLS certificate + keys. The secret must exist in the same namespace as the istio-ingressgateway (probably istio-system namespace)
# This secret can be created by cert-manager
# Or you can create a self-signed certificate
# and add it to manually inside the browser trusted certificates
credentialName: my-domain-tls
Then you VirtualService
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
name: grafana
spec:
hosts:
- "my.domain.com"
gateways:
- ingress
http:
- match:
- uri:
prefix: /grafana
route:
- destination:
port:
number: 3000
host: grafana

Kubernetes Istio exposure not working with Virtualservice and Gateway

When we start using a Virtualservice and Gateway, we fail to make it work for some reason. We wanna use VSVC and Gateways cause they offer more flexibility and options (like url rewriting). Other apps dont have this issue running on istio (much simpler as well), we dont have networkpolicy in place (yet). We simply cannot reach the webpage. Anyone has an idea? Virtualservice and Gateway down below. with the other 2 replicasets not mentioned cause they are not the problem:
---
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3

---
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: Gateway
metadata:

namespace: frontend
spec:
selector:
istio: ingressgateway # use istio default controller
servers:
- port:

tls:
httpsRedirect: True
hosts:

- port:

protocol: HTTPS
tls:

credentialName: customer-cert
hosts:

Your Gateway specifies PASSTHROUGH, however your VirtualService provides an HttpRoute. This means the TLS connection is not terminated by the Gateway, but the VirtualService expects terminated TLS. See also this somewhat similar question.
How do I properly HTTPS secure an application when using Istio?
#user140547 Correct, we changed that now. But we still couldn't access the application.
We found out that one of the important services was not receiving gateway traffic, since that one wasn't setup correctly. It is our first time having an istio deployment with multiple services. So we thought each of them needed their own Gateway. Little did we know that 1 gateway was more then enough...

How to bind gateway to a specific namespace?

I have the following scenario:
When the user A enter the address foo.example1.example.com in the
browser, then it should call the service FOO in the namespace
example1.
When the user B enter the address foo.example1.example.com in the
browser, then it should call the service FOO in the namespace
example2.
I am using istio, the question is, how to configure the gateway, that is bind specific to a namespace:
Look at an example of istio gateway configuration:
$ kubectl apply -f - <<EOF
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: Gateway
metadata:
name: ns_example1
spec:
selector:
istio: ingressgateway # use Istio default gateway implementation
servers:
- port:
number: 80
name: http
protocol: HTTP
hosts:
- "example1.example.com"
EOF
When I would deploy the gateway, then it will apply to current namespace but I would like to specify a namespace.
How to assign a gateway to specific namespace?
I think this link should answer your question.
There is many things You won't need, but there is idea You want to apply to your istio cluster.
So You need 1 gateway and 2 virtual services.
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: Gateway
metadata:
name: foocorp-gateway
namespace: default
spec:
selector:
istio: ingressgateway # use istio default ingress gateway
servers:
- port:
number: 80
name: http-example1
protocol: HTTP
hosts:
- "example1.example.com"
- port:
number: 80
name: http-example2
protocol: HTTP
hosts:
- "example2.example.com"
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
name: example1
namespace: ex1
spec:
hosts:
- "example1.example.com"
gateways:
- foocorp-gateway
http:
- match:
- uri:
exact: /
route:
- destination:
host: example1.ex1.svc.cluster.local
port:
number: 80
---
apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
name: example2
namespace: ex2
spec:
hosts:
- "example2.example.com"
gateways:
- foocorp-gateway
http:
- match:
- uri:
exact: /
route:
- destination:
host: example2.ex2.svc.cluster.local
port:
number: 80
EDIT
You can create gateway in namespace ex1 and ex2, then just change gateway field in virtual service and it should work.
Remember to add namespace/gateway, not only gateway name, like there.
gateways:
- some-config-namespace/gateway-name
Let me know if that help You.
