Openshift Web Console White Screen Of Death
Openshift Troubleshooting: White screen of death#
If you are getting the white screen of death usually there is a problem in the openshift-web-console project.
Ensure the pods are running:
oc project openshift-web-console
oc get pods
If you see something like this you need to investigate further:
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
webconsole-777564d747-q48l5 0/1 CrashLoopBackOff 40 21d
Get the logs for the pod
oc logs webconsole-777564d747-q48l5
I saw this issue:
W1029 13:34:48.100641 1 start.go:93] Warning: config.clusterInfo.loggingPublicURL: Invalid value: "": required to view aggregated container logs in the console, web console start will continue.
Error: AssetConfig.webconsole.config.openshift.io "" is invalid: [config.clusterInfo.metricsPublicURL: Invalid value: "hawkular/metrics": must contain a scheme (e.g. https://), config.clusterInfo.metricsPublicURL: Invalid value: "hawkular/metrics": must contain a host]
That is an issue with the configmap of the project, so to edit it, do:
oc edit configmap/webconsole-config -n openshift-web-console
and add the metricsPublicURL.
To redeploy you need to scale up and then down again:
oc scale --replicas=0 deployment.apps/webconsole
oc scale --replicas=1 deployment.apps/webconsole
watch oc get pods -n openshift-web-console
