<p>I have the following setup:</p>

<p>A docker image <code>omg/telperion</code> on docker hub
A kubernetes cluster (with 4 nodes, each with ~50GB RAM) and plenty resources</p>

<p>I followed tutorials to pull images from dockerhub to kubernetes</p>

<pre><code>SERVICE_NAME=telperion
DOCKER_SERVER="https://index.docker.io/v1/"
DOCKER_USERNAME=username
DOCKER_PASSWORD=password
DOCKER_EMAIL="omg@whatever.com"

# Create secret
kubectl create secret docker-registry dockerhub --docker-server=$DOCKER_SERVER --docker-username=$DOCKER_USERNAME --docker-password=$DOCKER_PASSWORD --docker-email=$DOCKER_EMAIL

# Create service yaml
echo "apiVersion: v1 \n\
kind: Pod \n\
metadata: \n\
  name: ${SERVICE_NAME} \n\
spec: \n\
  containers: \n\
    - name: ${SERVICE_NAME} \n\
      image: omg/${SERVICE_NAME} \n\
      imagePullPolicy: Always \n\
      command: [ \"echo\",\"done deploying $SERVICE_NAME\" ] \n\
  imagePullSecrets: \n\
    - name: dockerhub" &gt; $SERVICE_NAME.yaml

 # Deploy to kubernetes
 kubectl create -f $SERVICE_NAME.yaml
</code></pre>

<p>Which results in the pod going into a <code>CrashLoopBackoff</code></p>

<p><code>docker run -it -p8080:9546 omg/telperion</code> works fine.</p>

<p>So my question is
<strong>Is this debug-able?, if so, how do i debug this?</strong></p>

<p>Some logs:</p>

<p>You can access the logs of your pods with</p>

<pre><code>kubectl logs [podname] -p
</code></pre>

<p>the -p option will read the logs of the previous (crashed) instance</p>

<p>If the crash comes from the application, you should have useful logs in there.</p>
