Bad Gateway in Rails app with Kubernetes setup


I try to setup a Rails app within a Kubernetes Cluster (which is created with k3d on my local machine.

k3d cluster create --api-port 6550 -p "8081:80@loadbalancer" --agents 2

kubectl create deployment nginx --image=nginx

kubectl create service clusterip nginx --tcp=80:80

# apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1beta1 # for k3s < v1.19
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: nginx
  annotations:
    ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect: "false"
spec:
  rules:
  - http:
      paths:
      - path: /
        pathType: Prefix
        backend:
          service:
            name: nginx
            port:
              number: 80

I can get an Ingress running which correctly exposes a running Nginx Deployment ("Welcome to nginx!") (I took this example from here: https://k3d.io/usage/guides/exposing_services/

So I know my setup is working (with nginx).

Now, I simpy wanna point that ingress to my Rails app, but I always get an "Bad Gateway". (I also tried to point to my other services (elasticsearch, kibana, pgadminer) but I always get a "Bad gateway".

I can see my Rails app running at (http://localhost:62333/) last lines of my Dockerfile:

EXPOSE 3001:3001
CMD rm -f tmp/pids/server.pid && bundle exec rails s -b 0.0.0.0 -p 3001

Why is my API has the "bad gateway" but Nginx not?

Does it have something to do with my selectors and labels which are created by kompose convert?

This is my complete Rails-API Deployment:

kubectl apply -f api-deployment.yml -f api.service.yml -f ingress.yml

Solution

  • The problem was within the Dockerfile:

    I had not defined ENV RAILS_LOG_TO_STDOUT true, so I was not able to see any errors in the pod logs.

    After I added ENV RAILS_LOG_TO_STDOUT true I saw errors like database xxxx does not exist
