Kubernetes ReplicaFailure FailedCreate but no events
Jul 31
I have deployment and a replica set in Kubernetes that are failing to create a pod. I've tried
kubectl describe deployment deployment-name and
kubectl describe replicaset replicaset-name
And they both say
Conditions:
Type Status Reason
---- ------ ------
ReplicaFailure True FailedCreate
Events: <none>
All of the troubleshooting guides I've seen rely on information from the Events section but it says <none> in my case. How can I get more information to debug the problem?

I believe the docs are pretty clear 👓 on how to debug this. This is a 'failed' deployment and possible causes:
- Insufficient quota
- Readiness probe failures
- Image pull errors
- Insufficient permissions
- Limit ranges
- Application runtime misconfiguration
You can try to debug for example by patching the progressDeadlineSeconds deployment spec field to something long.
kubectl patch deployment.v1.apps/deployment-name -p '{"spec":{"progressDeadlineSeconds":600}}'
Maybe you have a ReplicaSet resource quota❓
