[alexisaraya]

Which chart:

Airflow 11.1.13

Describe the bug

I can't find the configuration file airflow.cfg in webserver pod

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to '...' login to the webserver pod via cli console
2. Go to folder /opt/bitnami/airflow
3. I can't find the airflow folder inside folder
4. I can't find configuration file airflow.cfg

Expected behavior you should have the folder and the configuration file

Version of Helm and Kubernetes:

• Output of helm version: 2.3

- Output of `kubectl version`:

1.2

**Additional context**
I need to enable azure keyvault, as backend secret

Hi @carrodher The airflow folder does not exist in the pod.

$kubectl exec -it airflowanalytics-qa-web-649986c4b9-bhsjk -n airflowanalytics-qa -- ls -la /opt/bitnami/

It's really weird, can you share with us the steps you're using to deploy the Helm chart? Are you performing any customization via values?

[alexisaraya]

Hi @carrodher , We are using terraform, for azure cloud deployment. It is running on an AKS The repository we are using is https://marketplace.azurecr.io/helm/v1/repo",

using postgres and external redis as a service in azure, and all parameters are sent

example Parametes:

externalDatabase.host
externalDatabase.port
externalDatabase.database
externalDatabase.user
externalDatabase.password

The service is working fine, including ingress, but I can't find the configuration files in the Pods. I have not found the way to get the secret backend via parameter either.

If you can guide me in any way

[carrodher]

I just tried using the chart from the azure-marketplace repo and everything looks fine:

$ helm repo add azure-marketplace https://marketplace.azurecr.io/helm/v1/repo
"azure-marketplace2" has been added to your repositories

$ helm install airflow azure-marketplace/airflow --namespace airflow --create-namespace
NAME: airflow
LAST DEPLOYED: Tue Jan 11 07:30:57 2022
NAMESPACE: airflow
STATUS: deployed
REVISION: 1
TEST SUITE: None
NOTES:
CHART NAME: airflow
CHART VERSION: 11.2.0
APP VERSION: 2.2.3

** Please be patient while the chart is being deployed **1. Get the Airflow URL by running:

  echo URL  : http://127.0.0.1:8080
  kubectl port-forward --namespace airflow svc/airflow 8080:8080

2. Get your Airflow login credentials by running:
  export AIRFLOW_PASSWORD=$(kubectl get secret --namespace "airflow" airflow -o jsonpath="{.data.airflow-password}" | base64 --decode)
  echo User:     user

$ kubectl exec -it airflow-scheduler-867b7dd686-lpgmj -n airflow -- ls -la /opt/bitnami/airflow/airflow.cfg
-rw-r--r-- 1 1001 root 43448 Jan 11 07:41 /opt/bitnami/airflow/airflow.cfg

$ kubectl exec -it airflow-web-7cb5879c57-67s7z -n airflow -- ls -la /opt/bitnami/airflow/airflow.cfg
-rw-r--r-- 1 1001 root 43458 Jan 11 07:37 /opt/bitnami/airflow/airflow.cfg

$ kubectl exec -it airflow-worker-0 -n airflow -- ls -la /opt/bitnami/airflow/airflow.cfg
-rw-r--r-- 1 1001 root 43447 Jan 11 07:43 /opt/bitnami/airflow/airflow.cfg

Per the above logs, the airflow.cfg file is present in all the containers deployed in the different airflow-* pods. Can you try installing it from scratch in a new namespace as shown in the above example?

hi @carrodher , I confirm that using comand via cli works and the configuration file appears, maybe the problem is generated by the use of terraform and sending the parameters.
