How to Diagnose a Kubernetes Service With Endpoints but No Successful Requests

11/10/2026

Service endpoints show that pods are selected, but requests can still fail because of application readiness, port mismatch, network policy, or protocol configuration.

What to check

Compare service and container ports, endpoint readiness, probe results, network policy, ingress path, and application logs. Test from inside and outside the cluster.

Recommended next step

Trace the request path and correct the first failing layer, then verify representative traffic. Informatix Systems can troubleshoot Kubernetes networking and workloads.
