Kubernetes Ingress Path only works with

Question

I have configured a kubernetes ingress service but it only works when the path is /

I have tried all manner of different values for the path including:

/*
/servicea
/servicea/
/servicea/*

This is my ingress configuration (that works)

- apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
  kind: Ingress
  metadata:
    name: boardingservice
    annotations:
      ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: /
  spec:
    rules:
    - host: my.url.com
      http:
        paths:
        - path: /
          backend:
            serviceName: servicea-nodeport
            servicePort: 80

This is my nodeport service

- apiVersion: v1
  kind: Service
  metadata:
    name: servicea-nodeport
  spec:
    type: NodePort
    ports:
    - port: 80
      targetPort: 8081
      nodePort: 30124
    selector:
      app: servicea

And this is my deployment

- apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
  kind: Deployment
  metadata:
    name: servicea
  spec:
    replicas: 1
    template:
      metadata:
        name: ervicea
        labels:
          app: servicea
      spec: 
        containers:
        - image: 350329402011.dkr.ecr.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/servicea
          name: servicea
          ports: 
          - containerPort: 8080
            protocol: TCP              
        - image: 350329402011.dkr.ecr.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/serviceb
          name: serviceab
          ports: 
          - containerPort: 8081
            protocol: TCP  

If the path is / then I can do this http://my.url.com/api/ping but as I will have multiple services I want to do this: http://my.url.com/servicea/api/ping but when I set the path to /servicea I get a 404.

I am running kubernetes on AWS with an ingress-nginx ingress controller

Answer 1

Have you changed the context path in your application that are running in the containers? You need to change the context path to match the ingress path.

Try this and let me know if it works.
