CKS Challenge 2 - deployment

Kubernetes
#1

Hello,

I’m working on CKS Challenge 2 , at the deployment step, I still have a point which is not completed and I don’t know how to proceed

  1. Run as non root(instead, use correct application user)

the initial deployment configuration was:
runAsUser: 10001

I tried with
runAsUser: 1001
runAsUser: 1000
runAsNonRoot: true

My questions is: How can I find the “correct application user” in order to pass this step?

Thank you!

On some systems, the UI is a bit screwed up – you click on an icon, and you see the wrong information for the item. This may be your problem here, since the “run as user” business relates only to the Dockerfile step.

The solution from the course repo should tell you what needs to be done with each step. We’re aware of the UI issue, but it’s hard to reproduce consistently, so we’re still working on it.

Hello,

It is possible to forgot to update the user in the Dockerfile and that check to fail due to this reason, but yes, the UI is not working properly for all the Challenges, it’s a bit difficult to see what are the steps that need to be done, because the clicks are working only sometimes, after you first click on other part of the schema, but not necessarily, anyway, in the end it worked if the solution implemented is fully correct,

Thank you!
