Kubernetes deployment.extensions not found

Question

I get the following error message in my Gitlab CI pipeline and I can't do anything with it. Yesterday the pipeline still worked, but I didn't change anything in the yml and I don't know where I made the mistake. I also reset my code to the last working commit, but the error still occurs.

$ kubectl set image deployment/ft-backend ft-backend=registry.gitlab.com/projectX/ft-backend

Error from server (NotFound): deployments.extensions "ft-backend" not found

Solution 1

I suppose that when you are invoking command:

kubectl set image deployment/ft-backend ft-backend=registry.gitlab.com/projectX/ft-backend

deployment ft-backend does not exist in your cluster. Does the command: kubectl get deployment ft-backend return the same result?

Solution 2

Use this command to create deployments, its not supported in newer version: check this for newer version:

$ kubectl create deployment hello-minikube --image=k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:1.4

I just removed - kubectl set image deployment/ft-backend ft-backend=registry.gitlab.com/projectX/ft-backend:${CI_COMM‌​IT_SHA} for the first build, run the code without :${CI_COMMIT_SHA} tags and added everything everything back for next builds.

In my case, when getting this error while using the circleci orb job "kubernetes/create-or-update-resource" i needed to specify the namespace for the job that was specified in the deployment manifest.

I had a same issue and it was simply a mismatched deployment name
