Unable to edit configmap in kubernetes

Question

I have a already running kubernetes application(eclipse che) I am editing a configmap with the following command kubectl edit cm/che -n che When I edit and save it, I get a message saying that the configmap is saved. But when I again issue the same command I cannot find my changes. Am I missing some basic step?

Answer 1

In case you deployed devfile registry with helm and you only need only your devfile registry and not the one provided by che try the following -

1. Remove the helm chart by helm delete che-devfile-registry -n che

2. kubectl edit checluster eclipse-che -n che

3. Add devfileRegistryImage: 'Your devfile Image' under spec: server:

4. Save

After that go to the default che url you should be able to see your custom stack in the list.
