dspace-ui 7.6.1 installation issue on kubernetes

[Manish Kumar]

Hi all, 

I am trying to setup dspace-ui 7.6.1 version on my GCP kubernetes, while doing that I noticed my pods are restarting automatically but not coming up. When I checked logs through gcp cloud cli I found below logs.

" yarn run v1.22.19

I need community help to resolve the issue. However I tried to use same version docker image in that case only getting container creating message on pod level.

Thanks,

Hi Manish,

The logs you have shared don't appear to show any errors.  Those are the same logs I see when starting up the UI locally (and everything works fine).

The message about "Encourage the library authors to publish an Ivy distribution" can be safely ignored.  It's a warning from Angular about a few third-party libraries we use for DSpace. That warning doesn't impact DSpace's behavior, and it's not something that DSpace can fix.  As soon as those libraries update themselves the warning should go away.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply, I enabled --verbose and faced so many GET call, that was taking time after  Encourage the library authors to publish an Ivy distribution, and we had initilize 60 seconds initialDelaySeconds inside readinessProbe  due to this short time period once wait time reach to limit,  pods restart again and again, we increased the time and now able to setup everything and UI is running after that.
