Troubleshooting the GitLab agent for Kubernetes

When you are using the GitLab agent for Kubernetes, you might experience issues you need to troubleshoot.

You can start by viewing the service logs:

kubectl logs -f -l=app=gitlab-agent -n gitlab-kubernetes-agent

If you are a GitLab administrator, you can also view the GitLab agent server logs.

Transport: Error while dialing failed to WebSocket dial

{
  "level": "warn",
  "time": "2020-11-04T10:14:39.368Z",
  "msg": "GetConfiguration failed",
  "error": "rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = connection error: desc = \"transport: Error while dialing failed to WebSocket dial: failed to send handshake request: Get \\\"https://gitlab-kas:443/-/kubernetes-agent\\\": dial tcp: lookup gitlab-kas on 10.60.0.10:53: no such host\""
}

This error is shown if there are some connectivity issues between the address specified as kas-address, and your agent pod. To fix it, make sure that you specified the kas-address correctly.

{
  "level": "error",
  "time": "2021-06-25T21:15:45.335Z",
  "msg": "Reverse tunnel",
  "mod_name": "reverse_tunnel",
  "error": "Connect(): rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = connection error: desc= \"transport: Error while dialing failed to WebSocket dial: expected handshake response status code 101 but got 301\""
}

This error occurs if the kas-address doesn't include a trailing slash. To fix it, make sure that the wss or ws URL ends with a trailing slash, such as wss://GitLab.host.tld:443/-/kubernetes-agent/ or ws://GitLab.host.tld:80/-/kubernetes-agent/.

ValidationError(Deployment.metadata)

{
  "level": "info",
  "time": "2020-10-30T08:56:54.329Z",
  "msg": "Synced",
  "project_id": "root/kas-manifest001",
  "resource_key": "apps/Deployment/kas-test001/nginx-deployment",
  "sync_result": "error validating data: [ValidationError(Deployment.metadata): unknown field \"replicas\" in io.k8s.apimachinery.pkg.apis.meta.v1.ObjectMeta, ValidationError(Deployment.metadata): unknown field \"selector\" in io.k8s.apimachinery.pkg.apis.meta.v1.ObjectMeta, ValidationError(Deployment.metadata): unknown field \"template\" in io.k8s.apimachinery.pkg.apis.meta.v1.ObjectMeta]"
}

This error is shown if a manifest file is malformed, and Kubernetes can't create specified objects. Make sure that your manifest files are valid. You may try using them to create objects in Kubernetes directly for more troubleshooting.

Error while dialing failed to WebSocket dial: failed to send handshake request

{
  "level": "warn",
  "time": "2020-10-30T09:50:51.173Z",
  "msg": "GetConfiguration failed",
  "error": "rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = connection error: desc = \"transport: Error while dialing failed to WebSocket dial: failed to send handshake request: Get \\\"https://GitLabhost.tld:443/-/kubernetes-agent\\\": net/http: HTTP/1.x transport connection broken: malformed HTTP response \\\"\\\\x00\\\\x00\\\\x06\\\\x04\\\\x00\\\\x00\\\\x00\\\\x00\\\\x00\\\\x00\\\\x05\\\\x00\\\\x00@\\\\x00\\\"\""
}

This error is shown if you configured wss as kas-address on the agent side, but KAS on the server side is not available via wss. To fix it, make sure the same schemes are configured on both sides.

It's not possible to set the grpc scheme due to the issue It is not possible to configure KAS to work with grpc without directly editing GitLab KAS deployment. To use grpc while the issue is in progress, directly edit the deployment with the kubectl edit deployment gitlab-kas command, and change --listen-websocket=true to --listen-websocket=false. After running that command, you should be able to use grpc://gitlab-kas.<YOUR-NAMESPACE>:8150.

Decompressor is not installed for grpc-encoding

{
  "level": "warn",
  "time": "2020-11-05T05:25:46.916Z",
  "msg": "GetConfiguration.Recv failed",
  "error": "rpc error: code = Unimplemented desc = grpc: Decompressor is not installed for grpc-encoding \"gzip\""
}

This error is shown if the version of the agent is newer that the version of KAS. To fix it, make sure that both agentk and KAS use the same versions.

Certificate signed by unknown authority

{
  "level": "error",
  "time": "2021-02-25T07:22:37.158Z",
  "msg": "Reverse tunnel",
  "mod_name": "reverse_tunnel",
  "error": "Connect(): rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = connection error: desc = \"transport: Error while dialing failed to WebSocket dial: failed to send handshake request: Get \\\"https://GitLabhost.tld:443/-/kubernetes-agent/\\\": x509: certificate signed by unknown authority\""
}

This error is shown if your GitLab instance is using a certificate signed by an internal CA that is unknown to the agent. One approach to fixing it is to present the CA certificate file to the agent via a Kubernetes configmap and mount the file in the agent /etc/ssl/certs directory from where it will be picked up automatically.

For example, if your internal CA certificate is myCA.pem:

kubectl -n gitlab-kubernetes-agent create configmap ca-pemstore --from-file=myCA.pem

Then in resources.yml:

    spec:
      serviceAccountName: gitlab-kubernetes-agent
      containers:
      - name: agent
        image: "registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/gitlab-agent/agentk:<version>"
        args:
        - --token-file=/config/token
        - --kas-address
        - wss://kas.host.tld:443 # replace this line with the line below if using Omnibus GitLab or GitLab.com.
        # - wss://gitlab.host.tld:443/-/kubernetes-agent/
        # - wss://kas.gitlab.com # for GitLab.com users, use this KAS.
        # - grpc://host.docker.internal:8150 # use this attribute when connecting from Docker.
        volumeMounts:
        - name: token-volume
          mountPath: /config
        - name: ca-pemstore-volume
          mountPath: /etc/ssl/certs/myCA.pem
          subPath: myCA.pem
      volumes:
      - name: token-volume
        secret:
          secretName: gitlab-kubernetes-agent-token
      - name: ca-pemstore-volume
        configMap:
          name: ca-pemstore
          items:
          - key: myCA.pem
            path: myCA.pem

Alternatively, you can mount the certificate file at a different location and include it using the --ca-cert-file agent parameter:

      containers:
      - name: agent
        image: "registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/gitlab-agent/agentk:<version>"
        args:
        - --ca-cert-file=/tmp/myCA.pem
        - --token-file=/config/token
        - --kas-address
        - wss://kas.host.tld:443 # replace this line with the line below if using Omnibus GitLab or GitLab.com.
        # - wss://gitlab.host.tld:443/-/kubernetes-agent/
        # - wss://kas.gitlab.com # for GitLab.com users, use this KAS.
        # - grpc://host.docker.internal:8150 # use this attribute when connecting from Docker.
        volumeMounts:
        - name: token-volume
          mountPath: /config
        - name: ca-pemstore-volume
          mountPath: /tmp/myCA.pem
          subPath: myCA.pem

Project not found

{
  "level ":"error ",
  "time ":"2022-01-05T15:18:11.331Z",
  "msg ":"GetObjectsToSynchronize.Recv failed ",
  "mod_name ":"gitops ",
  "error ":"rpc error: code = NotFound desc = project not found ",
}

This error is shown if the manifest project is not public. To fix it, make sure your manifest project is public or your manifest files are stored in the agent's configuration repository.
