I'm trying to connect to a socket that is inside a container and deployed on Kubernetes. Locally everything works fine but when deployed it throws an error on connect. I tried with different options but with no success.
Client code
const ENDPOINT = "https://traveling.dev/api/chat"; // this will go to the endpoint of service where socket is running
const chatSocket = io(ENDPOINT, {
rejectUnauthorized: false,
forceNew: true,
secure: false,
});
chatSocket.on("connect_error", (err) => {
console.log(err);
console.log(`connect_error due to ${err.message}`);
});
console.log("CS", chatSocket);
Server code
const app = express();
app.set("trust proxy", true);
app.use(cors());
const server = http.createServer(app);
const io = new Server(server, {
cors: {
origin: "*",
methods: ["*"],
allowedHeaders: ["*"],
},
});
io.on("connection", (socket) => {
console.log("Socket succesfully connected with id: " + socket.id);
});
const start = async () => {
server.listen(3000, () => {
console.log("Started");
});
};
start();
The thing is code is irrelevant here cause locally it all works fine but I posted it anyways. What can cause this while containerizing it and putting it on Kubernetes?
And the console log just says server error
Error: server error

Does anyone have any suggestions on what may cause this and how to fix it? Also, any idea on how to get more information about the error would be appreciated.
This is the YAML file that creates the Service and a Pod.

I'm using a loadbalancer on GKE with nginx which IP address is mapped to traveling.dev
This is how my ingress routing service config looks like:

Thanks!
