Hi,

ubuntu@ip-172-31-32-211:~$ kubectl -n accounting describe services
Name:                     service-lab
Namespace:                accounting
Labels:                   system=secondary
Annotations:              <none>
Selector:                 system=secondary
Type:                     NodePort
IP:                       10.104.115.79
Port:                     <unset>  8080/TCP
TargetPort:               8080/TCP
NodePort:                 <unset>  31742/TCP
Endpoints:                192.168.89.54:8080,192.168.89.55:8080
Session Affinity:         None
External Traffic Policy:  Cluster
Events:                   <none>
ubuntu@ip-172-31-32-211:~$ kubectl cluster-info
Kubernetes master is running at https://k8smaster:6443
KubeDNS is running at https://k8smaster:6443/api/v1/namespaces/kube-system/services/kube-dns:dns/proxy

To further debug and diagnose cluster problems, use 'kubectl cluster-info dump'.
ubuntu@ip-172-31-32-211:~$ curl https://k8smaster:31742
curl: (7) Failed to connect to k8smaster port 31742: Connection refused
ubuntu@ip-172-31-32-211:~$ curl http://k8smaster:31742
curl: (7) Failed to connect to k8smaster port 31742: Connection refused

Also, I see in the description that "In a previous exercise we deployed a Load Balancerwhich deployed a ClusterIP and NodePort automatically."
IIRC, In Exercise 8.1 we do not deploy a LB Service. Please correct me if I am wrong.

    Hello,

    It would look like the service is as expected, so next I would want to make sure the pod is properly running. Just to double-check you have no firewalls in place, and the nodes have 2cpu/7.5G? This is what I would try next:

    Check the spelling of the labels, it is case sensitive. Are both the service and the pod using "system=secondary"? The service must match what you set Ex8.1, step 1.

    kubectl get pods -o wide --all-namespaces
    kubectl -n accounting get svc
    kubectl describe node | grep -i taint

    As far as the LB setup, the description says "a previous lab", which may be prior to 8.1. For example Ex3.5, step 5.

    Regards,

    Hi @ganeshahv,

    As long as the Service's TargetPort is set to 8080, it will not be able to forward traffic to the port 80 of the nginx container.

    I suggest reconfiguring the service and/or the yaml manifest of the nginx-one Deployment - which should be performed in step 13 of exercise 8.1.

    Regards,
    -Chris

    Hi @chrispokorni , thanks for your suggestion. I reconfigured the services and it works fine now.

    `Name: service-lab
    Namespace: accounting
    Labels: system=secondary
    Annotations:
    Selector: system=secondary
    Type: NodePort
    IP: 10.99.38.30
    Port: 80/TCP
    TargetPort: 80/TCP
    NodePort: 32204/TCP
    Endpoints: 192.168.89.62:80,192.168.89.63:80
    Session Affinity: None
    External Traffic Policy: Cluster
    Events:
    ubuntu@ip-172-31-32-211:~$ curl http://k8smaster:32204
