Kube.netes 挑战等待 http-01 传播：拨打 tcp：没有这样的主机

Question

I am trying to create a kube.netes cluster namespace with auto generated DNS for ingress, secured with Let's Encrypt TLS certificates. Unfortunately i'm running in some trouble and do not know where to look for the solution.

Deployment is being done with a multi-stage yaml pipeline into an AKS cluster, i've setup an nginx ingress controller and cert-manager, both in a separate namespace. The deployment succeeds and everything seems to be running, but the exposed hostnames from the ingress are not reachable. When taking a look at the certificates i see the following

I'm quite new to kube.netes and don't know where to look to fix the error bellow, any help is greatly appreciated.

Looking in the ingress controller i get the following error:

Answer 1

You can refer this link to configure cert manager at AKS. It will automatically create the TLS secret too, once the certificate gets validated and will attain ready state

Answer 2

The problem was that the top level domain name we were using was not valid, therefore the ingress didn't refer to a valid domain and threw an error. Creating a valid top level domain and implementing it in our deployment solved the problem.

Answer 3

If someone Googles this, then know that this issue can be also caused by DNS caching in your Kubernetes cluster. In this case, it is a transient error, but in some contexts speed could be important (eg if you are a managed service provider).

I wrote about it here but in summary.

• cert-manager would emit the "no such host" error for a while, and eventually succeed
• my coredns ConfigMap (in kube-system namespace) stipulated local DNS resolvers, and a 30 sec cache
• you can fix the delay by (1) removing the cache , and (2) pointing the resolver to Google DNS (or another, depending on your needs)

Hope this pointer is helpful to someone.

Answer 4

Remember to add DNS records to the domain, such as A and CNAME to route traffic to the Kube.netes load balancer.

Eg cm-myApp-dev.dev or any other subdomains.
