I am following Lab 16.1 to install HAProxy for load balancing but HAProxy is not starting getting below error.

Hi @ssubramanian1,
I experienced similar errors when I started HAproxy based on the configuration presented in the PDF lab exercise alone. When I used the haproxy.cfg file available in the Solutions package I was able to successfully start it.
Did you use the default haproxy.cfg config file?Regards,

I tried with solution cfg file now HAProxy does not start throws below error
`ubuntu@ip-:~$ sudo systemctl restart haproxy.service
Job for haproxy.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status haproxy.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
ubuntu@ip-:~$ sudo systemctl status haproxy.service

How did you provision your nodes? Are they local or cloud?
Are all the port numbers in the haproxy.cfg file available for HAproxy to use and accessible (not blocked by a firewall) on your proxy node?
In the haproxy.cfg, did you edit the master server name and master IP with your own? The file shows defaults:backend k8sServers balance roundrobin server master1 10.128.0.24:6443 check ...
Yours should be different (name and IP here are just an example):
backend k8sServers balance roundrobin server my-k8s-master-1 10.138.4.15:6443 check ...

Hi @chrispokorni
I also have an issue while starting haproxy on my master node.
After inspecting journalct, I learnt that haproxy is not able to bind stocket:
Starting frontend proxynode: cannot bind socket [0.0.0.0:6443]It makes sense, because kube-apiserver Pod is bound to hostIP 10.164.0.7 and port 6443.
I am wondering if haproxy should bind to a specific IP (e.g. Virtual IP) ?
Any clue?

Hi @jzimnowo,
The HAproxy is not supposed to run on any of the master nodes. It is running on a separate/dedicated host.
Read the exercises carefully as they describe the additional resources you need.Regards,

Hi @chrispokorni
Aha, it works now! Thanks0 -

Hi,
I am trying to install and configure the HAPROXY on separate ec2 instance on AWS. I opened the port on security group, disable the firewall, enable the port forwarding and exactly followed the same steps as in pdf but still getting the error.

Apache may be running on port 80 already. Stop it and/or remove it and try the haproxy again.
