cannot fetch token error when using cloudsql-proxy with GKE


I am using GKE with istio add-on enabled. Myapp somehow gives 503 errors using when using websocket. I am starting to think that maybe the websocket is working but the database connection is not and that causes 503's, as the cloudsql-proxy logs give errors:

$ kubectl logs myapp-54d6696fb4-bmp5m cloudsql-proxy

Looks like the required authentication details should be in the credentials of the proxy service account I created and thus is provided for:

{
  "type": "service_account",
  "project_id": "myproject",
  "private_key_id": "myprivekeyid",
  "private_key": "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\MYPRIVATEKEY-----END PRIVATE KEY-----\n",
  "client_email": "[email protected]",
  "client_id": "myclientid",
  "auth_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
  "token_uri": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
  "auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
  "client_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/robot/v1/metadata/x509/proxy-user%40myproject.iam.gserviceaccount.com"
}

My question: How do I get rid of the errors/ get a proper google sql config from GKE?

At cluster creation I selected the mTLS 'permissive' option.

My config: myapp_and_router.yaml:

EDIT 1: I had not enabled permissions (scopes) for the various google services when creating the cluster, see here. After creating a new cluster with the permissions I now get a new errormessage:

kubectl logs mypod cloudsql-proxy
2019/01/11 20:39:58 using credential file for authentication; [email protected]

Response: {
  "error": "invalid_grant",
  "error_description": "Invalid JWT Signature." 
}

EDIT 2: Looks like new error was caused by the Service Accounts keys no longer being valid. After making new ones I can connect to the database!


Solution

  • I saw similar errors but was able to get cloudsql-proxy working in my istio cluster on GKE by creating the following service entries (with some help from https://github.com/istio/istio/issues/6593#issuecomment-420591213):

    apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
    kind: ServiceEntry
    metadata:
      name: google-apis
    spec:
      hosts:
      - "*.googleapis.com"
      ports:
      - name: https
        number: 443
        protocol: HTTPS
    ---
    apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1alpha3
    kind: ServiceEntry
    metadata:
      name: cloudsql-instances
    spec:
      hosts:
      # Use `gcloud sql instances list` to get the addresses of instances
      - 35.226.125.82
      ports:
      - name: tcp
        number: 3307
        protocol: TCP
    

    Also, I still saw those connection errors during initialization until I added a delay in my app startup (sleep 10 before running server) to give the istio-proxy and cloudsql-proxy containers time to get set up first.

    EDIT 1: Here are logs with the errors, then the successful "New connection/Client closed" lines once things are working:

    EDIT 2: Ensure that Cloud SQL api is within scope of your cluster.
