I installed Minikube v1.3.1 on my RedHat EC2 instance for some tests.
Since the ports that the nginx-ingress-controller uses by default are already in use, I am trying to change them in the deployment but without result. Could please somebody advise how to do it?
How do I know that the port are already in Use?
When I listed the system pods using the command kubectl -n kube-system get deployment | grep nginx
, I get:
nginx-ingress-controller 0/1 1 0 9d
meaning that my container is not up. When I describe it using the command kubectl -n kube-system describe pod nginx-ingress-controller-xxxxx
I get:
Type Reason Age From
Message ---- ------ ----
---- ------- Warning FailedCreatePodSandBox 42m (x163507 over 2d1h) kubelet, minikube (combined from similar events): Failed create pod sandbox: rpc error: code = Unknown desc = failed to start sandbox container for pod "nginx-ingress-controller-xxxx": Error response from daemon: driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint k8s_POD_nginx-ingress-controller-xxxx_kube-system_...: Error starting userland proxy: listen tcp 0.0.0.0:443: bind: address already in use
Then I check the processes using those ports and I kill them. That free them up and the ingress-controller pod gets deployed correctly.
What did I try to change the nginx-ingress-controller port?
kubectl -n kube-system get deployment | grep nginx
> NAME READY UP-TO-DATE AVAILABLE AGE
> nginx-ingress-controller 0/1 1 0 9d
kubectl -n kube-system edit deployment nginx-ingress-controller
The relevant part of my deployment looks like this:
name: nginx-ingress-controller
ports:
- containerPort: 80
hostPort: 80
protocol: TCP
- containerPort: 443
hostPort: 443
protocol: TCP
- containerPort: 81
hostPort: 81
protocol: TCP
- containerPort: 444
hostPort: 444
protocol: TCP
- containerPort: 18080
hostPort: 18080
protocol: TCP
Then I remove the subsections with port 443 and 80, but when I rollout the changes, they get added again.
Now my services are not reachable anymore through ingress.
