Kubernetes GKE cronjob not working

Question

I'm trying to run a simple cron job

This is my yaml file

apiVersion: batch/v1beta1
kind: CronJob
metadata:
  name: node-timer-analytics-parser-cronjob
spec:
  schedule: "0 * * * *"
  jobTemplate:
    spec:
      template:
        spec:
          containers:
          - name: node-timer-analytics-parser-cronjob
            image: round0.azurecr.io/node-timer-analytics-parser:latest
            args:
            - /bin/sh
            - -c
            - date; npm start
          restartPolicy: OnFailure
          imagePullSecrets:
            - name: regsecret

$ kubectl get cronjob
NAME                                     KIND
node-timer-analytics-parser-controller   CronJob.v1beta1.batch

NAME                                     KIND
node-timer-analytics-parser-controller   CronJob.v1beta1.batch

What's the issue here?

Hello @lina, 

I think the problem is with your version. You can check your version using kubectl version 

If you are running < 1.8 then you will need to enable cron jobs

gcloud alpha container clusters create my-cluster --enable-kubernetes-alpha

Adding to @Kalgi's answer I think you might have to upgrade your version.

And i've noticed that you're working with azure, you might wanna start with something simple.
