hostpath.csi.k8s.io not found in the list of registered CSI drivers

[eldritch-dream]

While running through the example with microK8s kubernetes I keep running into this error when trying to actually start the my-csi-app pod

Warning FailedMount 5s (x6 over 22s) kubelet, rkimmel-dt MountVolume.MountDevice failed for volume "pvc-4d70c760-a4b0-11e9-8376-1866da0e836f" : driver name hostpath.csi.k8s.io not found in the list of registered CSI drivers

Looks like for some reason the hostpath csi driver is not getting registered but I'm not sure where to look to fix that or find out why it's happening.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated

Use the example from https://github.com/kubernetes-csi/csi-driver-host-path/releases/tag/v1.1.0.

We are in a transition from the old driver name without domain part to "hostpath.csi.k8s.io" and your deployment still seems to use the old name.

[eldritch-dream]

Thanks for your earlier reply I appreciate you taking the time to respond so quickly! After a few different attempts at using the 1.1.0 release I am still having roughly the same issue unfortunately. Overall it looks like for some reason the driver registration is not happening at all even with this release. Is there somewhere I can look for for why this might be happening?

So kubelet didn't the driver neither under the old nor the new name, i.e. not at all.

What kind of cluster did you run this on? If kubelet finds a CSI driver, it adds a label for it, so "kubectl describe node/" is a good first check. You probably don't have anything related to csi hostpath there, so next check the kubelet log. Perhaps that shows something.

The log of the driver-registrar container in the csi-hostpathplugin-0 pod may also provide some information.

What kind of cluster do you run this on?

OpenShift with SELinux enabled was problematic before (issue #32).

[eldritch-dream]

Interestingly enough looks like the driver registration is attempted just fine but maybe it never gets a response and that's why i'm not seeing a finish message in this driver-registrar log? I'm using microk8s on fedora 27 you can see my kubectl version output below the logs from the driver-registrar. (Edit) I am running in an SELinux possible environment but I have it disabled so I don't think that's it necessarily.

Looks like kubelet never finds /registration/csi-hostpath-reg.sock. Check your deployment: does it use /var/lib/kubelet/plugins_registry as registration directory
as in

csi-driver-host-path/deploy/kubernetes-1.13/hostpath/csi-hostpath-plugin.yaml

Lines 125 to 128 in 46a3521

	- hostPath:
	path: /var/lib/kubelet/plugins_registry
	type: Directory
	name: registration-dir

?

Does you kubelet use that same path?

[eldritch-dream]

I think you may have hit the nail on the head here my path uses this directory /var/snap/microk8s/common/var/lib/kubelet/ so I'm going to try changing all the yaml in the hostpath dir to use the right path and I'll get back to you! Thanks again for your help looking at this!

(EDIT) This totally worked so thank you so much for helping me get through that!

We should document this better, therefore I am keeping this issue open.

@ivorywang: perhaps you can do a PR for this?
