Description
Hi there,
I discovered this awesome project and tried it on a Kubernetes cluster running on NixOS. Unfortunately, I have an error in the events of my namespace:
0s (x5 over 8s) Warning FailedMount Pod/nfs-subdir-external-provisioner-547d9f6c74-5jrlw MountVolume.SetUp failed for volume "pv-nfs-subdir-external-provisioner" : mount failed: exit status 32 Mounting command: mount Mounting arguments: -t nfs -o nfsvers=4.2 192.168.1.202:/ /var/lib/kubelet/pods/3d7a44c3-7cb4-4085-b0b0-d85ade2fe015/volumes/kubernetes.io~nfs/pv-nfs-subdir-external-provisioner Output: mount: /var/lib/kubelet/pods/3d7a44c3-7cb4-4085-b0b0-d85ade2fe015/volumes/kubernetes.io~nfs/pv-nfs-subdir-external-provisioner: échec de fsconfig() :NFS: mount program didn't pass remote address. dmesg(1) peut avoir plus d'informations après un échec de l'appel système du montage.
After some research on the internet, I tried to add some lines on my NixOS configuration such as installing the nfs-utils package and things related to rpcbind but nothing changes. The pod gives the same error all times.
I noticed that the NFS share is working when I mount it manually with sudo but I cannot mount it without as a regular user (error: mount.nfs: not installed setuid - "user" NFS mounts not supported.). My guess was that mounting NFS in Kubernetes is done without root access but when I tried with privileged: true in the Helm chart, nothing changes again.
So, I don't know if it's a NixOS related issue or a nfs-subdir-external-provisioner one. I'll probably open the same issue on nixpkgs repo but I wanted some advice before to be sure.
Useful informations:
- Kubernetes 1.33 (latest now)
- Helm 3.17.1
- 3 nodes cluster on NixOS 25.05
Don't hesitate to ask me more information on my setup.
Please help me. Thanks! (French speaker, please correct me if I'm wrong)
