bufio.Scanner: token too long - When installing platform in a namespace

[frankscholten]

I have a k8s cluster on GKE and trying to install the platform as described in https://funktion.fabric8.io/docs/#install-platform and I get this error:

funktion install platform --namespace cheese
kubectl apply --namespace cheese -f https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/io/fabric8/platform/packages/funktion-platform/2.4.24/funktion-platform-2.4.24-kubernetes.yml

bufio.Scanner: token too long
Failed: exit status 1

What version of kubectl are you running? You could try making sure you have the latest.

I upgraded to 1.5.3 and running on minikube. When I run the above command I now get:

$ funktion install platform --namespace cheese
Failed: Cannot get version to deploy from url https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/io/fabric8/platform/packages/funktion-platform/maven-metadata.xml due to: Get https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/io/fabric8/platform/packages/funktion-platform/maven-metadata.xml: dial tcp: lookup repo1.maven.org on 127.0.0.1:53: no such host

@frankscholten are you behind a HTTP proxy or something? It looks like the shell you are in can't access the internet to resolve repo1.maven.org.

I'm not behind a proxy. I did an strace and then it started uploadin configmaps but it stopped with this error:

deployment "configmapcontroller" created
deployment "exposecontroller" created
deployment "fabric8" created
deployment "funktion-operator" created
The ConfigMap "catalog-letschat" is invalid: metadata.annotations: Too long: must have at most 262144 characters

I now tried this on my desktop and run into another error:

This is a known issue (see #33). You should be able to safely ignore the error - funktion should still work fine.

this finally got fixed now for good - the installation is now lean and mean and has been tested on the latest minishift and openshift online too
