FAQs

1. How will I know when the installation is finished?

Run the following command to check the status of the installation:

kubectl -n devtroncd get installers installer-devtron -o jsonpath='{.status.sync.status}'

The above command will print Applied once the installation process is complete. The installation process could take up to 30 minutes.

2. How do I track the progress of the installation?

Run the following command to check the logs of the Pod:

pod=$(kubectl -n devtroncd get po -l app=inception -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}')&& kubectl -n devtroncd logs -f $pod

3. How can I restart the installation if the Devtron installer logs contain an error?

First run the below command to clean up components installed by Devtron installer:

cd devtron-installation-script/
kubectl delete -n devtroncd -f yamls/
kubectl -n devtroncd patch installer installer-devtron --type json -p '[{"op": "remove", "path": "/status"}]'

Next, install Devtron

4. What's the purpose of 'Login as administrator' option on the login page?

When you install Devtron for the first time, it creates a default admin user and password (with unrestricted access to Devtron). You can use that credentials to log in as an administrator. After the initial login, we recommend you set up any SSO service like Google, GitHub, etc., and then add other users (including yourself). Subsequently, all the users can use the same SSO (let's say, GitHub) to log in to Devtron's dashboard.
