Unable to create nginx application on OpenShift - openshift

I'm trying to add an nginx application to my Openshift 4.1 project. The ImageStream is available in the openshift namespace as:
image-registry.openshift-image-registry.svc:5000/openshift/nginx
When I create the app with:
oc new-app nginx
The created Pod is in CrashLoopBackOff. From the logs I can read:
This is a S2I rhel base image: To use it, install S2I: https://github.com/openshift/source-to-image Sample invocation: s2i build https://github.com/sclorg/nginx-container.git --context-dir=1.12/test/test-app/ rhscl/nginx-112-rhel7 nginx-sample-app You can then run the resulting image via: docker run -p 8080:8080 nginx-sample-app
It's not clear to me. Can't I use "oc-new app" to create the application? or do I miss any Environment variable?
Thanks

Run docker container on OpenShift from Nexus unsecure private registry

I'm trying to run a containerized app which is stored in Nexus docker hosted on url 12.23.34.55:8086
I'm trying to run it on my Openshift Cluster, but I'm getting error. Commands I'm using to run
oc create secret docker-registry mysecret --docker-server=http://12.23.34.55/ --docker-username=aditya --docker-password=aditya --docker-email=aditya#example.org
oc secrets link default mysecret --for=pull
My nexus is running on http://12.23.34.55:8081
Now I'm using command to launch in OpenShift using below command.
oc new-app 12.23.34.55:8085/mytestapp:11 --insecure-registry=true
as per $ oc new-app myregistry:5000/example/myimage
https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.1/applications/application_life_cycle_management/creating-new-applications.html
But it does not work, it asks for password and not able to deploy from console too, can anyone help me with exact commmand.
Creating the secret is not enough for OpenShift to be able to pull from the registry. You still need to link that secret as well.
Take a look at the official documentation here:
https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.1/openshift_images/managing_images/using-image-pull-secrets.html#images-allow-pods-to-reference-images-from-secure-registries_using-image-pull-secrets
Okay! I found an answer, so using private registry first we should import image using
oc import name url/imagename:tag
then we can create new app with the same
oc new app name

How can I specify Dockerfile build in buildConfig for OpenShift Online?

Openshfit details:
Paid Professional version.
Version Information:
Been trying to create a build from a Dockerfile in Openshift.
Its tough going.
So I tried to use the existing templates in the Cluster Console.
One of which is the Docker one. When i press "Try it" it generates a sample BuildConfig, when I try to then Create it, it gives me the error:
(i have now raised the above in the Origin upstream issue tracker)
Anyhoo...anyone know how to specify a buildConfig an image from a Dockerfile in a git repo? I would be grateful to know.
You can see the build strategies allowed for OpenShift Online on the product website: https://www.openshift.com/products/online. Dockerfile build isn't deprecated, it's just explicitly disallowed in OpenShift Online. You can build your Dockerfile locally and push it directly to the OpenShift internal registry (commands for docker login and docker push are on your cluster's About page).
However, in other environments (not OpenShift Online), you can specify a Dockerfile build as follows and providing a Git Repo with a Dockerfile contained within (located at BuildConfig.spec.source.contextDir)
strategy:
type: Docker
There are additional options that can be configured for a Dockerfile build as well, outlined in https://docs.okd.io/latest/dev_guide/builds/build_strategies.html#docker-strategy-options.

Using a connector with Helm-installed Kafka/Confluent

I have installed Kafka on a local Minikube by using the Helm charts https://github.com/confluentinc/cp-helm-charts following these instructions https://docs.confluent.io/current/installation/installing_cp/cp-helm-charts/docs/index.html like so:
helm install -f kafka_config.yaml confluentinc/cp-helm-charts --name kafka-home-delivery --namespace cust360
The kafka_config.yaml is almost identical to the default yaml, with the one exception being that I scaled it down to 1 server/broker instead of 3 (just because I'm trying to conserve resources on my local minikube; hopefully that's not relevant to my problem).
Also running on Minikube is a MySQL instance. Here's the output of kubectl get pods --namespace myNamespace:
I want to connect MySQL and Kafka, using one of the connectors (like Debezium MySQL CDC, for instance). In the instructions, it says:
Install your connector
Use the Confluent Hub client to install this
connector with:
confluent-hub install debezium/debezium-connector-mysql:0.9.2
Sounds good, except 1) I don't know which pod to run this command on, 2) None of the pods seem to have a confluent-hub command available.
Questions:
Does confluent-hub not come installed via those Helm charts?
Do I have to install confluent-hub myself?
If so, which pod do I have to install it on?
Ideally this should be configurable as part of the helm script, but unfortunately it is not as of now. One way to work around this is to build a new Docker from Confluent's Kafka Connect Docker image. Download the connector manually and extract the contents into a folder. Copy the contents of this to a path in the container. Something like below.
Contents of Dockerfile
FROM confluentinc/cp-kafka-connect:5.2.1
COPY <connector-directory> /usr/share/java
/usr/share/java is the default location where Kafka Connect looks for plugins. You could also use different location and provide the new location (plugin.path) during your helm installation.
Build this image and host it somewhere accessible. You will also have to provide/override the image and tag details during the helm installation.
Here is the path to the values.yaml file. You can find the image and plugin.path values here.
Just an add-on to Jegan's comment above: https://stackoverflow.com/a/56049585/6002912
You can choose to do the Dockerfile below. Recommended.
FROM confluentinc/cp-server-connect-operator:5.4.0.0
RUN confluent-hub install --no-prompt debezium/debezium-connector-postgresql:1.0.0
Or you can use a Docker's multi-stage build instead.
FROM confluentinc/cp-server-connect-operator:5.4.0.0
COPY --from=debezium/connect:1.0 \
/kafka/connect/debezium-connector-postgres/ \
/usr/share/confluent-hub-components/debezium-connector-postgres/
This will help you to save time on getting the right jar files for your plugins like debezium-connector-postgres.
From Confluent documentation: https://docs.confluent.io/current/connect/managing/extending.html#create-a-docker-image-containing-c-hub-connectors
The Kafka Connect pod should already have the confluent-hub installed. It is that pod you should run the commands on.
The cp kafka connect pod has 2 containers, one of them is a cp-kafka-connect-server container.That container has confluent-hub installed.You can login into that container and run your connector commands there.To login into that container, run the following command:
kubectl exec -it {pod-name} -c cp-kafka-connect-server -- /bin/bash
As of latest version of chart, this can be achieved using customEnv.CUSTOM_SCRIPT_PATH
See README.md
Script can be passed as a secret and mounted as a volume

Configuration files BROKER_DATABASE_HOST Docker

I'm trying to access the ContextBroker configuration file in the path /etc/sysconfig/contextBroker and it's empty. What is the problem?
https://fiware-orion.readthedocs.io/en/master/admin/running/index.html
I'm using Docker.
Also I am testing the installation by yum centos and tells me that the repository is wrong.
  Is it copied from the web?
https://github.com/telefonicaid/fiware-orion/blob/master/doc/manuals/admin/yum.md
The /etc/sysconfig/contextBroker is used in RPM-base deployment. Docker is based in compiling Context Broker directly from sources, as you can see in the docker file.
So, in this case, you have to use CLI based configuration. Note the docker is built with some of them:
ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/bin/contextBroker","-fg", "-multiservice", "-ngsiv1Autocast" ]
But you can add aditional ones. For example, in the reference docker-compose.yml we set -dbhost, and more ones could be added in the same way.
command: -dbhost mongo
I guess that using docker run you could also add commands in the same way command works in docker-compose.yml, although I don't know the details. Maybe some docker expert could add more info :)

Deploying a node.js application with Bluemix

I am trying to deploy a simple node.js application with the new Kubernetes support in Bluemix. When I run the container I made, I get a ImagePullBackOff error, which means it can't pull down the image.
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
hello-node-2399519400-6m8dz 0/1 ImagePullBackOff 0 13m
My Docker image uses the node.js base image.
FROM node:6.9.2
EXPOSE 8080
COPY server.js .
CMD node server.js
I deployed using:
docker build -t hello-node:v1 .
kubectl run hello-node --image=hello-node:v1 --port=8080
I am thinking that Bluemix can't pull down the node.js image, but I am not certain.
I see the docker build of the image, and I'm presuming that you're using the kubectl with the exported cluster config (bx cs cluster-config ...), so that it's targetting your cluster.
Did you tag and push that image from your local docker into the bluemix registry, or to another remote registry that would be accessible from the container service? (My apologies if this is obvious - just didn't see the step there to tag and push it to a registry that would be available).
I had to first push the image to Bluemix with:
docker build -t registry.ng.bluemix.net/namespace/hello-node:1
docker push registry.ng.bluemix.net/namespace/hello-node:1
kubectl run hello-node-deployment --image=registry.ng.bluemix.net/namespace/hello-node:1
