Troubleshooting Application Failure practice test broken

Kubernetes
#1

The first question on this practice test in the CKA course has you attempt to fix the webapp-mysql application that is failing to connect to the database pod. I edited the db hostname environment variable in the webapp spec of the deployment to match the name of the mysql-service, and the app page now displays as green, but when I check my results it says I have not completed the task.

Edit: It looks like the only solution the test accepts is to change the name of the service, rather than changing the hostname the webapp uses to lookup the service.

Hello bkonicek,

You have to follow the given architecture and use the same names as given in the architecture diagram, so you have to change the name of mysql service from “mysql” to “mysql-service”.
