Hello @reators,

thanks for your feedback.

Pls, can you try to follow also the "more" simple workshop: Deploying Java Microservices to Kubernetes on IBM Cloud ?

There is also a workshop: Let’s get started with cloud native Java applications on Kubernetes

I only found one typo in step one of the IKS documentation "git clone https://github.com/nheidloff/cloud-native-starter.git" replace "nheidloff" with "IBM".

Information related to windows 10: Definition of a Dockerfile to use bash scripts on a Windows 10 machine for our Cloud-Native-Starter workshop

Greetings,

Thomas

Can you check in the IBM Cloud Web Console, in the Kubernetes section under Clusters, if a cluster has been created? (Select All Resources and All Locations)
The script creates a logfile in iks-scripts: create-iks-cluster.log. Something helpful in there?

Hello Harald-U,

thanks for your reply.

Can you check in the IBM Cloud Web Console, in the Kubernetes section under Clusters, if a cluster has been created? (Select All Resources and All Locations)

I cannot find a Kubernetes section under https://cloud.ibm.com/account.
Maybe you could provide a link?
My guess is that I need some kind of upgrade to the account (https://cloud.ibm.com/kubernetes/catalog/cluster/create talks about this ("Für Ihren aktuellen Kontotyp stehen keine kostenfreien Cluster zur Verfügung. Führen Sie zur Erstellung eines neuen Standardclusters ein Upgrade für Ihr Konto durch.")

The script creates a logfile in iks-scripts: create-iks-cluster.log. Something helpful in there?

Tip: If you are managing Cloud Foundry applications and services
- Use 'C:\Program Files\IBM\Cloud\bin\ibmcloud.exe target --cf' to target Cloud Foundry org/space interactively, or use 'C:\Program Files\IBM\Cloud\bin\ibmcloud.exe target --cf-api ENDPOINT -o ORG -s SPACE' to target the org/space.
- Use 'C:\Program Files\IBM\Cloud\bin\ibmcloud.exe cf' if you want to run the Cloud Foundry CLI with current IBM Cloud CLI context.

WARNING: The 'ibmcloud ks region-get' command is deprecated and will be removed. For more information, see http://ibm.biz/iks-cli-v1

             
Region:   us-south   
The 'machine-type' flag was not specified. So a free cluster will be created.

Yes, goes in the same direction as my above guess.

Hello @thomassuedbroecker,

thanks for your reply. On following

Pls, can you try to follow also the "more" simple workshop: Deploying Java Microservices to Kubernetes on IBM Cloud ?

I found on https://github.com/IBM/cloud-native-starter/blob/master/workshop-one-service/0-create-kubernetes-cluster.md the hint:
In order to create a free Kubernetes cluster, you need a promo or feature code.

Do you have an idea on how to get such a code?

[reators]

Thanks for providing the code. create-iks-cluster.sh works now.
