Errors when deploying ibm-eventstreams-dev into local environment

I tried to install ibm-eventstreams-dev v 0.1.2 into my Mac.

After I installed eventstreams into my Mac, there's always several pods that can't run. It includes three kafka pods: es-ibm-es-kafka-sts-0/1/2, es-ibm-es-ui-deploy-69758d9dfd-kc2zx, es-ibm-es-ui-oauth2-client-reg-pgvq6 and there also have a failed job named es-ibm-es-ui-oauth2-client-reg.

Please help me, Thanks a lot!

Solution

  • So I have two questions about the ibm-event-stream:
    Does ibm-eventstreams-dev only supported on ICP? Can I install it on my local environment without ICP environment?

    Event Streams will only run on IBM Cloud Private (ICP). That's because ICP provides more than just a Kubernetes environment. For example, authentication and user management for Event Streams is provided by the ICP platform.

    That's what the es-ibm-es-ui-oauth2-client-reg job that is failing for you is trying to do - set up the OAuth integration with ICP. And that'll be why it failed for you in Kubernetes on your Mac - because some of the dependencies that Event Streams has will be missing.

    How could I solve the ui pods problem in the ibm-eventstreams-dev?

    I'm afraid you won't be able to fix this in just K8S on your Mac - all of the problems that you describe are a result of bits of ICP that Event Streams depends on being missing.

    You can get a Community Edition of ICP (at no charge) from https://www.ibm.com/account/reg/us-en/signup?formid=urx-20295 - which would let you give it a try.
