How to fix this issue..?

Question

I have been facing the following error on my Kubernets deployment.

Previously the deployment was successful with the default namespace but we are facing the below mentioned error on the deployment.

Error:

$ kubectl apply -f deploy.yaml

configmap/intime-test-config unchanged

deployment.apps/intime-test-app created

Error from server (Forbidden): error when creating "deploy.yaml": admission webhook "validation.gatekeeper.sh" denied the request: [azurepolicy-k8sazurev1blockdefault-69441b94455ae7313640] Usage of the default namespace is not allowed, name: intime-test-service, kind: Service

Is there any solution to fix this issue..?

Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

The error you're encountering is due to a policy that restricts the creation of resources in the default namespace of your Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster. This is a common security practice to ensure better organization and isolation of resources. To resolve this issue, you need to:

• Specify a non-default namespace in your deployment YAML file.
• Create the namespace if it doesn't already exist.

If you want to set a default namespace for your current context to avoid specifying it in every command, use:

kubectl config set-context --current --namespace=your-namespace-name
