Kube Service: preparing server: failed to get CA certs #234

Closed bsodmike closed 1 year ago

bsodmike commented 1 year ago

Hi all,

I'm testing a very basic clone of this playbook, with a few basics changed. The error I'm seeing is this. It seems the Jinja templating is breaking at {.items[*].metadata.name} which is here https://github.com/techno-tim/k3s-ansible/blob/master/roles/k3s/master/tasks/main.yml#L34

I can confirm that the kube-vip instance is running and the script fails due to the issue above.

Dug a bit deeper and the issue is elsewhere, this is on one of the master nodes:

Hi can you please fill out the issue template that was supplied when you created an issue? Thank you!

Expected Behavior

According to the YouTube video, at least, your master nodes joined the main node which runs kube-vip.

Current Behavior

This does not happen, instead the 2nd and 3rd master nodes are unable to connect to the main (primary) master node as CA certs are missing.

Run the playbook by default, this error should take place.

Possible Solution

I was planning on setting up self-signed certs and seeing if that would work, but I'm just confused as why this wasn't experienced when you made the Video :). Thanks Tim!

Observations

FYI, I also noticed another error and fixed this by running /usr/local/bin/k3s kubectl create secret generic -n metallb-system memberlist --from-literal=secretkey="$(openssl rand -base64 128)" - without this, there were metallb errors in the logs.

bsodmike commented 1 year ago

If they do not match, create one master / server node and add additional servers outside of this playbook

Removing the 2nd/3rd master and trying this now. This passed the initial failure point

TASK [k3s/master : Verify that all nodes actually joined (check k3s-init.service if this fails)] ***
FAILED - RETRYING: [10.0.3.79]: Verify that all nodes actually joined (check k3s-init.service if this fails) (20 retries left).
ok: [10.0.3.79]

However it is now failing at

TASK [k3s/node : Copy K3s service file] **************************************************
changed: [10.0.3.83]
changed: [10.0.3.82]

TASK [k3s/node : Enable and check K3s service] *******************************************

I find it strange that it is trying to fetch the CA cert (which doesn't exist anyway, as far as I'm aware), from the localhost address - ideas?

In my case had the same fail point, steps that helped me: make sure each host has a unique hostname, make sure that hosts do not have any firewall rules blocking traffic(on all ports)

Thanks @BornaV let me double check on the local firewall.
