Troubleshooting VirtualServer resources

This page describes how to troubleshoot VirtualServer and VirtualServer resource events.

Inspecting VirtualServer and VirtualServerRoute resource events

After creating or updating a VirtualServer resource, you can immediately check if the NGINX configuration for that resource was successfully by using kubectl describe vs <resource-name>:

kubectl describe vs cafe

Events:
  Type    Reason          Age   From                      Message
  ----    ------          ----  ----                      -------
  Normal  AddedOrUpdated  16s   nginx-ingress-controller  Configuration for default/cafe was added or updated

In the above example, we have a Normal event with the AddedOrUpdate reason, which informs us that the configuration was successfully applied.

Checking the events of a VirtualServerRoute is similar:

kubectl describe vsr coffee

Events:
  Type     Reason                 Age   From                      Message
  ----     ------                 ----  ----                      -------
  Normal   AddedOrUpdated         1m    nginx-ingress-controller  Configuration for default/coffee was added or updated
