Error on my site or with the sample application?

Hello @maudcarstlf ,

Unfortunately I am unable to replicate your error, When I follow the steps, I am able to access the webpage without any errors.

Can you please try this :-

export GATEWAY_IP=$(kubectl get svc -n istio-system istio-ingressgateway -ojsonpath='{.status.loadBalancer.ingress[0].ip}')

Use the gateway IP and access from the browser. If this fails, then
execute this command : kubectl get svc -n istio-system istio-ingressgateway
And if the EXTERNAL-IP column shows as pending , then this is not going to work as the external load balancer has not been provisioned.

Instead, make use of your Node IP and node port of the istio-ingressgateway service and access from the browser.

For example: In my case : I made use of publicip of my node and port 30909
like http://35.239.4.160:30909/ --> this worked for me.

student@cp:~/LFS144x/ch5-security$ kubectl get svc -n istio-system istio-ingressgateway
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
istio-ingressgateway LoadBalancer 10.103.187.172 15021:30880/TCP,80:30909/TCP,443:32057/TCP,31400:30657/TCP,15443:31660/TCP 14m

Please provide additional information like output of
kubectl get svc -n istio-system istio-ingressgateway
kubectl get all

Hope this help.

I have the same issue but the LoadBalancer works fine (using Minikube tunnel). See discussion at https://forum.linuxfoundation.org/discussion/comment/40661#Comment_40661?utm_source=community-search&utm_medium=organic-search&utm_term=ERR_UNESCAPED_CHARACTERS
