Hello all,
I have a Bicep configuration with 'Microsoft.KubernetesConfiguration/fluxConfigurations@2023-05-01' specified. Here is my definition:
resource fluxConfig 'Microsoft.KubernetesConfiguration/fluxConfigurations@2023-05-01' = {
scope: aksCluster
name: 'flux-config'
properties: {
gitRepository: {
localAuthRef: 'git-auth-secret'
repositoryRef: {
branch: 'main'
}
syncIntervalInSeconds: 300
timeoutInSeconds: 300
url: 'https://github.com/xxx/flux-infra.git'
}
kustomizations: {
apps: {
path: './apps/staging'
prune: true
timeoutInSeconds: 300
wait: true
}
}
namespace: 'flux-system'
sourceKind: 'GitRepository'
}
}
When I attempt to deploy my configuration, the deployment runs for about an hour before timing out. No additional information is provided by the error.
I am not sure how I should proceed with this issue since no logs indicate what operation is getting stuck. What should I check to help provide insights into this issue? Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Hi Alex Rankin,
Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.
Check that your AKS cluster is healthy before deployment, see that nodes and pods are healthy and running.
Check that did you clone your git properly. Double check that your Git repository, URL all are correct and check that main branch exists in the repository.
Check the logs in the flux system.
I see that you have added Interval seconds and timeout seconds, once try increasing the timing.
If you have any further queries, please do let us know.
@anashetty , thanks for your reply! I have validated and the cluster's health is normal. I would also like to note that the timeouts specified in my Bicep code are 5 minutes, and the deployment times out after 1 hour. My expectation with this deployment is that Flux will be bootstrapped in the cluster. That being said, I cannot "check the logs in the flux system" until the deployment runs successfully. Additionally, when trying to bootstrap via CLI extension, I get this vague error:
az k8s-configuration flux create \
--name flux-config \
--cluster-name xxx \
--cluster-type managedClusters \
--namespace flux-system \
--url https://github.com/xxx/flux-infra.git \
--branch main \
--kustomization name=apps path=./apps/staging prune=true wait=true \
--local-auth-ref git-auth-secret
az:191: number expected
Please advise what my next steps should be! Thank you!
I was able to find the problem. My issue was not first registering the extension:
resource fluxExtensions 'Microsoft.KubernetesConfiguration/extensions@2023-05-01' = {
name: 'flux'
properties: {
extensionType: 'microsoft.flux'
}
scope: aksCluster
}
