Setting up LoadBlancer for direct access to SQL Server with Minikube


I'm trying to setup a SQL Server with Kubernetes. I'm running Minikube locally and I'm having a hard time troubleshooting the connection issue. I have a ClusterIP Service as well as a LoadBalencer Service setup: mssql-depl.yaml:

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: mssql-depl
spec:
  replicas: 1
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: mssql
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: mssql
    spec:
      containers:
        - name: mssql
          image: mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2017-latest
          ports:
            - containerPort: 1433
          env:
          - name: MSSQL_PID
            value: "Express"
          - name: ACCEPT_EULA
            value: "Y"
          - name: SA_PASSWORD
            valueFrom:
              secretKeyRef:
                name: mssql
                key: SA_PASSWORD
          volumeMounts:
          - mountPath: /var/opt/mssql/data
            name: mssqldb
      volumes:
      - name: mssqldb
        persistentVolumeClaim:
          claimName: mssql-claim
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: mssql-clusterip-srv
spec:
  type: ClusterIP
  selector:
    app: mssql
  ports:
    - name: mssql
      protocol: TCP
      port: 1433
      targetPort: 1433
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: mssql-loadbalancer
spec:
  type: LoadBalancer
  selector:
    app: mssql
  ports:
    - name: mssql
      protocol: TCP
      port: 1433
      targetPort: 1433

I also have a PersistentVolumeClaim setup

local-pvc.yaml:

apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
  name: mssql-claim
spec:
  resources:
    requests:
      storage: 200Mi
  volumeMode: Filesystem
  accessModes:
    - ReadWriteMany

After running kubectl apply -f msql-depl.yaml this is what I get with kubectl get services:

NAME                      TYPE           CLUSTER-IP       EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)          AGE
commands-clusterip-srv    ClusterIP      10.96.28.141     <none>        80/TCP           20h
kubernetes                ClusterIP      10.96.0.1        <none>        443/TCP          2d21h

mssql-loadbalancer        LoadBalancer   10.107.63.199    <pending>     1433:31681/TCP   28s
platforms-clusterip-srv   ClusterIP      10.98.35.159     <none>        80/TCP           44h
platformservice-srv       NodePort       10.104.221.184   <none>        80:30201/TCP     2d21h

When I run minikube ip I get a response of 192.168.59.100 So when I'm trying to make the connection using Azure Cloud I use a value of 192.168.59.100:1433 but I get a generic error (detailed error below). I've also tried a server value of localhost:1433, localhost:31681, 192.168.59.100:31681, 10.107.63.199:1433, 10.107.63.199:31681 all with the same error. Based on the details Name or service not known it appears to be network related (as opposed to credentials or SQL Sever specific error). I'm new to Kubernetes, and don't really know how to troubleshoot this setup.

Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.

Solution

  • Azure Data Studio expects a comma (,) instead of colon (:) between IP and PORT for the Server value. After using the IP returned from minikube ip in this format 192.168.59.100,31681 the connection works.
