I'm following this example of how to get wordpress running on GKE connected to Google Cloud SQL via the Google Cloud SQL Proxy:
https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/mysql/connect-container-engine <https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/mysql/connect-container-engine> Unfortunately, my wordpress pod is failing with a crashloop error, and it's not clear from the documentation how to dig deeper into the reason for this. Here is a sample of the error: bash-3.2$ kubectl get pods| egrep wordpress wordpress-713960421-v4f49 0/2 CrashLoopBackOff 16 20m (kubectl describe pod ...) 11m 22s 36 kubelet, gke-noon-staging-default- pool-d500b601-dfb6 Warning FailedSync Error syncing pod, skipping: [failed to "StartContainer" for "web" with CrashLoopBackOff: "Back-off 5m0s restarting failed container=web pod=wordpress-713960421-v4f49_default(f64276d2-5660-11e7-a565-42010a9a0023)" , failed to "StartContainer" for "cloudsql-proxy" with CrashLoopBackOff: "Back-off 5m0s restarting failed container=cloudsql-proxy pod=wordpress-713960421-v4f49_default(f64276d2-5660-11e7- a565-42010a9a0023)" ] My questions are: - How to dig further into why the pod is failing to deploy with cloud sql proxy - Has anyone got an example working for using cloud sql proxy with as simple mysql client pod? Here is a description of the deployment (kubectl describe wordpress): https://pastebin.com/DjYM97R7 <https://pastebin.com/DjYM97R7> <https://pastebin.com/DjYM97R7> And a description of the pod (kubectl describe ): <https://pastebin.com/pN7gUZg8> https://pastebin.com/pN7gUZg8 <https://pastebin.com/pN7gUZg8> I deployed the cloud sql proxy and wordpress container separately and found the cloud sql proxy runs fine, but the wordpress blog container fails to startup on kubernetes.
