[Question] Deploying behind NGINX ingress controller

Hi All,

More a question. At this point in time I'm attempting to deploy the gnmi-server behind an NGINX-ingress inside kubernetes. I'm struggling to tweak the ingress in such a way that it works. When I do a port-forward to the gnmi-server I'm able to query the server with a client. However when I do the same query behind the ingress (TLS enabled) I get the following error:

2024/08/06 16:14:23.062224 /home/runner/work/gnmic/gnmic/app/logging.go:21: [gnmic] rpc error: code = Internal desc = stream terminated by RST_STREAM with error code: PROTOCOL_ERROR
rpc error: code = Internal desc = stream terminated by RST_STREAM with error code: PROTOCOL_ERROR
Error: one or more requests failed

The query I'm attempting is:

Behind the ingress - Error

gnmic -a <address>:443 sub --path "/components" --target <target> --mode once --debug

Port forward - Works

gnmic -a localhost:57400 sub --path "/components" --target <target> --mode once --debug

Ingress status

The ingress is configured correctly and works.

The routers I'm attempting to query are very fast, results ususally return in as few ms so I shouldn't be hitting this timeout.

Has anyone had a similar experience? Thanks.
