I installed telepresence by using the curl command on a Kubernetes cluster running on GKE. I can correctly interact with other services deployed in the cluster and I can intercept services (like the one in this post) running on the default namespace but when the same service is deployed on the kube-system namespace I can't intercept it. I don't get any useful errors, just a timeout when Telepresence tries to install the agent.

I am already aware of a similar issue happening on GKE when some firewall ports are not correctly opened. I followed already the docs and I have already opened those ports. That's how I managed to run the same service on the default namespace correctly.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. I started an Nginx service with the following manifest. I have created a docker image gsantoro/my-nginx:latest which is a modified version of Nginx just to expose port 3000 instead of 80
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name:  nginx
  labels:
    app:  nginx
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: nginx
  replicas: 1
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app:  nginx
    spec:
      containers:
      - name:  nginx
        image: gsantoro/my-nginx:latest
        imagePullPolicy: Always
        ports:
        - containerPort: 3000
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: nginx
  namespace: default
spec:
  selector:
    app: nginx
  type: ClusterIP
  ports:
  - protocol: TCP
    port: 3000
  1. When I run 'telepresence intercept nginx --namespace kube-system --port 49729:3000`, I see 'telepresence intercept: error: request timed out while waiting for agent my-nginx.kube-system to arrive'
