Reporting Bugs

Oh no! You found a bug? We’d love to hear about it.

Product bugs

Search our issue database to see if we already know about your problem and learn about when we think we can fix it. If you don’t find your problem in the database, please open a new issue and let us know what’s going on.

If you think a bug is in fact a security vulnerability, please visit Reporting Security Vulnerabilities to learn what to do.

Kubernetes cluster state archives

If you’re running on Kubernetes, consider including a cluster state archive with your bug report. For convenience, you can run the istioctl bug-report command to produce an archive containing all of the relevant state from your Kubernetes cluster:

``` $ istioctl bug-report ```

Then attach the produced bug-report.tgz with your reported problem.

The istioctl bug-report command is only available with istioctl version 1.8.0 and higher but it can be used to also collect the information from an older Istio version installed in your cluster.

If you are unable to use the bug-report command, please attach your own archive containing:

• Pods, services, deployments, and endpoints across all namespaces:

  $ kubectl get pods,services,deployments,endpoints --all-namespaces -o yaml > k8s_resources.yaml

• Secret names in istio-system:

  $ kubectl --namespace istio-system get secrets

• configmaps in the istio-system namespace:

  $ kubectl --namespace istio-system get cm -o yaml

• Current and previous logs from all Istio components and sidecar

• Istiod logs:

  $ kubectl logs -n istio-system -l app=istiod

• All Istio configuration artifacts:

  $ kubectl get $(kubectl get crd --no-headers | awk '{printf "%s,",$1}END{printf "attributemanifests.config.istio.io\n"}') --all-namespaces

Documentation bugs

Search our documentation issue database to see if we already know about your problem and learn about when we think we can fix it. If you don’t find your problem in the database, please report the issue there. If you want to submit a proposed edit to a page, you will find an “Edit this Page on GitHub” link at the bottom right of every page.
