InitContainer problem: Not launching the rest

General Discussions

Hello,

I’m trying to use the InitContainer in my yaml deployment file.
The issue I have is that my POD is stuck in Init status:

ubuntu@kuber1:~/project$ kubectl get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
init-5bfc7b8d44-8bzfm 0/1 Init:0/1 0 6m54s

I checked the pods with the following command and fou d out my initContainer has started:

kubectl describe pods init

Init Containers:
nginx:
Container ID: docker://0e7976a56e4e6ea477c377f21dbc38eec7cc2f9b807d4929bd8e218f512261ce

Ready: False
Restart Count: 0
Environment:

/var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount from default-token-c6wjs (ro)

But the other container doesn’t want to start:

Containers:
mongo5:
Container ID:
Image: audirline/thanh:10037
Image ID:
Port: 10037/TCP
Host Port: 0/TCP

Here is my yaml file:

ubuntu@kuber1:~/project$ more mongo7.deploy.txt

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: init
spec:
replicas: 1
template:

name: mongo5
ports:
-
containerPort: 10037
initContainers:
-
image: “nginx”
name: nginx
ports:
-
containerPort: 80

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

The init container Ready status is false that might have something to do with it. Have you checked the logs to see what is going on with it?
