My kubernetes pods keep crashing with “CrashLoopBackOff” but I can't find any log

Question

This is what I keep getting:

[root@centos-master ~]# kubectl get pods
NAME               READY     STATUS             RESTARTS   AGE
nfs-server-h6nw8   1/1           


        

Answer 1

Try rerunning the pod and running

 kubectl get pods --watch

to watch the status of the pod as it progresses.

In my case, I would only see the end result, 'CrashLoopBackOff,' but the docker container ran fine locally. So I watched the pods using the above command, and I saw the container briefly progress into an OOMKilled state, which meant to me that it required more memory.
