Error in syncing pod - Kubernetes

Question

I've successfully created a kubernetes cluster. Afterwards I created an nginx service. Now when I describe the pod that's running my service, I get the following error:

Error syncing pod, skipping: failed to "StartContainer" for "my-nginx01" with CrashLoopBackOff: "Back-off 10s restarting failed container=my-nginx01 pod=my-nginx01_default(b4f373b3-20c3-11e6-81d6-000c294bd99a)"

Answer 1

You are getting this error because all you're pods aren't in the running state yet. One of your pod is in the CrashLoopBackOff state. 

CrashLoopBackoff means your pods are starting, crashing, starting and crashing again and are stuck in that loop. You need to check your docker container and find out what's making them crash and you've specified a valid ENTRYPOINT in your Dockerfile.
