NamespaceNotInjected

Message NameNamespaceNotInjected
Message CodeIST0102
DescriptionA namespace is not enabled for Istio injection.
LevelInfo

This message occurs when a namespace is missing either the istio-injection label, which enables/disables sidecar injection, or the istio.io/rev label, which specifies the Istio control plane revision for the sidecar, or when .values.sidecarInjectorWebhook.enableNamespacesByDefault is not enabled.

For example, you receive this error:

  1. Warn [IST0102] (Namespace default) The namespace is not enabled for Istio
  2. injection. Run 'kubectl label namespace default istio-injection=enabled' to
  3. enable it, or 'kubectl label namespace default istio-injection=disabled' to
  4. explicitly mark it as not needing injection Error: Analyzer found issues.

To resolve this problem, use a label to explicitly declare whether or not you want the namespace to be auto-injected. For example:

  1. $ kubectl label namespace <namespace-name> istio-injection=enabled

It is strongly recommended to explicitly define the desired injection behavior. Forgetting to add labels to a namespace is a common cause of errors.
