ConfigMaps volume not creating file in container

0 votes

So I've deployed a local single-node cluster. For some reason the config maps doesn't create file in conatiner. I followed the example in the configmaps guide and /etc/config/special.how should be created below but there is no such file there. Is there something that I'm doing wrong:

[root@nonipo brs-kubernetes]# kubectl create -f example.yaml 
configmap "special-config" created
pod "dapi-test-pod" created
[root@nonipo brs-kubernetes]# kubectl exec -it dapi-test-pod -- sh
/ # cd /etc/config/
/etc/config # ls
/etc/config # ls -alh
total 4
drwxrwxrwt    2 root     root          40 Mar 23 18:47 .
drwxr-xr-x    7 root     root        4.0K Mar 23 18:47 ..
/etc/config # 

example.yaml

apiVersion: v1

  name: special-config
  namespace: default

  special.how: very
  special.type: charm

        mountPath: /etc/config
  volumes:
    - name: config-volume
      configMap:
        name: special-config
        items:
        - key: special.how
          path: how.file

Did a little research and found the problem. My mount propagation mode of /var/lib/kubelet was private. Changed the mount flag for the kubelet dir to -v /var/lib/kubelet:/var/lib/kubelet:rw,shared. I also changed the MountFlags=slave to MountFlags=shared in my docker systemd file.
