"Something went wrong" message - local minikube and remote GKE (on GCP) present same error

[maucaro]

Describe the bug Can't get past "Something went wrong" message.

To Reproduce After the basic ToDo sample, I tried a more complex app (eShopOnContainers) but I can't seem to get past "Something went wrong. As clusters I tried minikube on my machine and a GKE cluster on GCP and get the same result. I captured the logs and am including them.

**Expected behavior** It should just work. If not, better reasons why and suggestions on possible fixes. **Logs**  [Bridge To Kubernetes.zip](https://github.com/microsoft/mindaro/files/6699150/Bridge.To.Kubernetes.zip) [Microsoft.VisualStudio.Kubernetes.Debugging.zip](https://github.com/microsoft/mindaro/files/6699152/Microsoft.VisualStudio.Kubernetes.Debugging.zip) **Environment Details** Client used (VS Code/Visual Studio): Visual Studio Client's version: Microsoft Visual Studio Enterprise 2019 Version 16.10.2 VisualStudio.16.Release/16.10.2+31410.357 Microsoft .NET Framework Version 4.8.04084 Installed Version: Enterprise .NET Core Debugging with WSL 2 1.0 .NET Core Debugging with WSL 2 ADL Tools Service Provider 1.0 This package contains services used by Data Lake tools ASA Service Provider 1.0 ASP.NET and Web Tools 2019 16.10.526.50910 ASP.NET and Web Tools 2019 ASP.NET Web Frameworks and Tools 2019 16.10.526.50910 For additional information, visit https://www.asp.net/ Azure App Service Tools v3.0.0 16.10.526.50910 Azure App Service Tools v3.0.0 Azure Data Lake Node 1.0 This package contains the Data Lake integration nodes for Server Explorer.

Hi @maucaro, sorry you're running into this issue. I had a look at your logs, and it looks like the Kubernetes client is timing out trying to talk to your cluster. Could you please confirm that your kubeconfig is pointing to a valid cluster (e.g. by running kubectl get pods from the command line)? Also we should definitely be returning a better error in this case, I will make a note on our side for that.

[maucaro]

Thanks @amsoedal. Yes, I absolutely do have connectivity. In parallel I was deploying and monitoring both clusters. Proof I had connectivity lies in the fact that I was able to configure and then change the configuration of B2K without an issue. Namespaces and services were populated correctly.

[amsoedal]

Hey @maucaro, sorry for the late reply. To be clear, does this only happen when you're using a certain application (i.e. the sample app worked on your GKE cluster?) From here we have a few options -- we'll probably need to open an issue on the Kubernetes client, and in parallel I'll bump up the priority for us to upgrade to the latest kubernetes client package in case that helps anything.

Thanks @amsoedal ; yes, the ToDo sample app did work. I wanted to try ToDo app again, and am now encountering the symptoms described in #111 and #126 . I stopped minikube (which causes the minikube entry to de deleted in kubeconfig) in order to rule out #111 but the issue remained, so I suspect it's something similar to #126. Since last time, I've switched from cert-based auth to interactive login and given #126 I think this is probably the reason for the new error. My kubeconfig now looks like this:

apiVersion: v1
clusters:
- cluster:
    certificate-authority-data: <valid-auth-data>
    server: https://kubernetes.docker.internal:6443
  name: docker-desktop
- cluster:

    server: https://<valid-ip>

        expiry-key: '{.credential.token_expiry}'
        token-key: '{.credential.access_token}'
      name: gcp

I'm providing this so that you can hopefully test this as you are addressing #126.

I will, however, not be pursuing this further. I love the concept but as it stands BTK is not in a state where it can be useful for my needs. I will probably revisit this in a few months and hope to see a better fit.

Really appreciate your help!

[maucaro]

One suggestion: get eShopOnContainers working with B2K and document and share the process and experience. B2K can potentially shine with a medium-complexity app where running it all on the development workstation is too heavy and slow. As a matter of fact, this was precisely my motivation. See this other issue I opened: Debugging in VS 2019 is painfully slow.

Thanks again!

@maucaro thanks so much for giving us a try and for your valuable feedback! I've made a note of this sample app for the future, I think you make a very compelling point. We'll upgrade our kubernetes client in the meantime and hopefully we'll suit your needs if you try us out again in the future :)
