I'm having trouble deleting custom resource definition. I'm trying to upgrade kubeless from v1.0.0-alpha.7 to v1.0.0-alpha.8.
I tried to remove all the created custom resources by doing
$ kubectl delete -f kubeless-v1.0.0-alpha.7.yaml
deployment "kubeless-controller-manager" deleted
serviceaccount "controller-acct" deleted
clusterrole "kubeless-controller-deployer" deleted
clusterrolebinding "kubeless-controller-deployer" deleted
customresourcedefinition "functions.kubeless.io" deleted
customresourcedefinition "httptriggers.kubeless.io" deleted
customresourcedefinition "cronjobtriggers.kubeless.io" deleted
configmap "kubeless-config" deleted
But when I try,
$ kubectl get customresourcedefinition
NAME AGE
functions.kubeless.io 21d
And because of this when I next try to upgrade by doing, I see,
$ kubectl create -f kubeless-v1.0.0-alpha.8.yaml
Error from server (AlreadyExists): error when creating "kubeless-v1.0.0-alpha.8.yaml": object is being deleted: customresourcedefinitions.apiextensions.k8s.io "functions.kubeless.io" already exists
I think because of this mismatch in the function definition , the hello world example is failing.
$ kubeless function deploy hellopy --runtime python2.7 --from-file test.py --handler test.hello
INFO[0000] Deploying function...
FATA[0000] Failed to deploy hellopy. Received:
the server does not allow this method on the requested resource (post functions.kubeless.io)
Finally, here is the output of,
$ kubectl describe customresourcedefinitions.apiextensions.k8s.io

So it turns out , the root cause was that Custom resources with finalizers can "deadlock". The CustomResource "functions.kubeless.io" had a
Finalizers:
customresourcecleanup.apiextensions.k8s.io
and this is can leave it in a bad state when deleting.

I followed the steps mentioned in this workaround and it now gets deleted.
