Installation Troubleshooting Guide

Troubleshooting

I’m Getting a Timeout Error

Depending on the connection and resources, the installation process may time out. If that occurs, use the --wait-duration flag to provide additional time. The time must be provided in Go duration format (for example: 60s, 1m, etc). The following example extends the wait duration to 10 minutes:

kubectl kots install wallaroo/ea -n wallaroo --license-file myfile.yaml --shared-password wallaroo --wait-duration 600s

Preflight Checks are Failing at the Command Line

If your system does not meet all of the preflight requirements, the installation process may fail when performing an automated installation. It is highly recommended to install Wallaroo on a system that meets all requirements or else performance will be degraded.

Before continuing, use the following command and note down any and all pre-flight checks that are listed as a failure. The license will be installed in later steps through the browser.

install wallaroo/ea -n wallaroo

To ignore preflight checks, use the --skip-preflights flag, as in the following example (Note: This is not recommended, only provided as an example.):

kubectl kots install wallaroo/ea -n wallaroo --license-file myfile.yaml --shared-password wallaroo --skip-preflights

When Launching JupyterHb, I get a Server 500 error

If you shut down and restart a Wallaroo instance in a new environment or change the IP address, some settings may not be updated. Run the following command to restart the deployment process and update the settings to match the current environment. Note that the namespace wallaroo is used - modify this to match the environment where Wallaroo is installed.

kubectl rollout restart deployment hub -n wallaroo

The resource wallaroo/daemonset/spire-agent shows as not loading - how do I fix it?

If the resource wallaroo/daemonset/spire-agent does not load, verify the kots version is 1.103.3. To upgrade the kots version in your Kubernetes cluster, see see Updating KOTS.

Usually this can be done by:

  1. Updating the version of kots with the command:

    curl https://kots.io/install/1.103.3 | REPL_USE_SUDO=y bash
    
  2. Upgrade kots in the Kubernetes cluster with the following, replacing the namespace wallaroo with the namespace you have installed the Wallaroo Ops instance in:

    kubectl kots admin-console upgrade -namespace wallaroo
    

How do I Send Logs and Configurations to Wallaroo?

See the Wallaroo Support Bundle Generation Guide for instructions on how to create a support bundle used to troubleshoot installation and configuration issues.
