Microservice Solution Deployment to AKS with Azure Pipelines and using existing Helm with custom Helm Values #6364 | Support Center | ABP Commercial

ahmet.ulusoy created 4 months ago

ABP Framework version: v7.4.2
UI Type: MVC /
Database System: EF Core (SQL Server)
Tiered (for MVC) or Auth Server Separated (for Angular): yes/
Exception message and full stack trace:
Steps to reproduce the issue:

Hello Dear Friends,

We created a new microservice solution with abp suite. We can debug or deploy it to local kubernetes server but there is no information for deploying our solution to AKS. We need step by step documentation for this procedure.

For now,

Creation of ACR completed, Creation of AKS completed, Integration of ACR with AKS completed, Installation of nginx-ingress with public ip completed, Creation of Azure Devops Repo completed, Integration of Azure Pipelines with ACR and AKS completed, But i have some issues on configuring for ingresses or need to learn your way to deploy them on AKS.

As i understand we need to make a diffrent deployment on AKS or need to change helm configurations.

Can you help me, please.

Hello,

please check https://docs.abp.io/en/commercial/latest/startup-templates/microservice/helm-deployment

You can also check the Azure deployment scripts and values for eShopOnAbp sample https://github.com/abpframework/eShopOnAbp/tree/main/etc/k8s

Hello,

You should change helm values accordingly like URL's, Connection strings... Are you getting any error while deploying application into AKS ? or Are you getting any error at pod level

Hello,

I already checked the given documentation and used the steps but it says "This documentation introduces guidance for running your microservice template on the local Kubernetes cluster".

It's working on local kubernetes server.

I already checked the given eShopOnAbp sample.

I already made same steps but I couldn't get it work.

There is no error on pods and etc only problem, configuration of nginx-ingress.

So, I need step by step configuration document for AKS.

Contains every change and operation after project created.

Hi,

if helm deploy is not working for installing NGINX Ingress controller then you run below command for installing NGINX kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/main/deploy/static/provider/cloud/deploy.yaml kubectl get pods --namespace ingress-nginx kubectl get service ingress-nginx-controller –namespace ingress-nginx Browse to that External-IP, you should be directed to 404 Not Found page

Helm deploy is working, also pods and services are working.

I think there is some configuration issue on Ingresses.

Can you figure out from below pictures what is the issue?

We have application deployment guide for Azure at https://docs.abp.io/en/commercial/latest/startup-templates/application/azure-deployment/azure-deployment?UI=MVC&DB=EF&Tiered=No but we don't have a step by step guide for microservice template deployment to Azure simply because it is not really related to ABP framework and we don't have enough knowledge.

You can share the log information about the error you come across after deployment when you navigated to your application to diagnose the problem better. Otherwise, a screenshot of an Azure Services (or AWS or Google KS etc) because those platforms are not in our expertise.

We bought abp because of it has azure ready deployment configuration for microservice solutions. Therefore, i ask for your help.

I'll share detailed information on question tomorrow.

Hi,

if helm deploy is not working for installing NGINX Ingress controller
then you run below command for installing NGINX
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/main/deploy/static/provider/cloud/deploy.yaml
kubectl get pods --namespace ingress-nginx
kubectl get service ingress-nginx-controller –namespace ingress-nginx
Browse to that External-IP, you should be directed to 404 Not Found page

Helm deploy is working, also pods and services are working.

I think there is some configuration issue on Ingresses.

Can you figure out from below pictures what is the issue?

Without seeing your charts specifically I can't say for certain, but I strongly suspect your fault lies in the Ingress YAML files. Your curent Ingresses do not point at an ingress class as you can see in my snoip from our deployment:

an acceptable YAML for the helm chart that we use is:

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1 kind: Ingress metadata: name: {{ .Release.Name }}-{{ .Chart.Name }}-ingress annotations: # kubernetes.io/ingress.class: "nginx" nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: / nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/force-ssl-redirect: "true" nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-buffer-size: 32k nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-buffers-number: "8" cert-manager.io/cluster-issuer: letsencrypt-production nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/configuration-snippet: | more_set_input_headers "from-ingress: true"; spec: ingressClassName: nginx tls: - hosts: - {{ .Values.ingress.host }} secretName: {{ .Values.ingress.tlsSecret }} rules: - host: "{{ .Values.ingress.host }}" http: paths: - path: / pathType: Prefix backend: service: name: {{ .Release.Name }}-{{ .Chart.Name }} port: number: 80

Although YMMV. Worth noting I don't work for ABP, but I do a lot of work in the K8s space - and annoyances like that Acme solver you have there not resolving are something that you'll smack your head against quite often whether you use ABP or not :)

I fixed the helm chats for azure because azure uses an updated version for helm.

Any way, I changed lot's of things in helm charts and create a custom helm value yaml for azure from scratch.

Now, everything works fine with acme tls.

Now, i need to find a way for changing helm charts and custom helm value yaml for azure which uses a valid wildcard certificate which is imported to the azure key vault service.

Is there any examples that shows using a custom valid wildcard certificate in azure key vault and used by nginx ingress?
