<!-- overview -->
|
|
|
|
Sometimes things go wrong. This guide is aimed at making them right. It has
|
|
two sections:
|
|
|
|
* [Debugging your application](/docs/tasks/debug/debug-application/) - Useful
|
|
for users who are deploying code into Kubernetes and wondering why it is not working.
|
|
* [Debugging your cluster](/docs/tasks/debug/debug-cluster/) - Useful
|
|
for cluster administrators and people whose Kubernetes cluster is unhappy.
|
|
|
|
You should also check the known issues for the [release](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/releases)
|
|
you're using.

## Getting help
|
|
|
|
If your problem isn't answered by any of the guides above, there are variety of
|
|
ways for you to get help from the Kubernetes community.
|
|
|
|
### Questions
|
|
|
|
The documentation on this site has been structured to provide answers to a wide
|
|
range of questions. [Concepts](/docs/concepts/) explain the Kubernetes
|
|
architecture and how each component works, while [Setup](/docs/setup/) provides
|
|
practical instructions for getting started. [Tasks](/docs/tasks/) show how to
|
|
accomplish commonly used tasks, and [Tutorials](/docs/tutorials/) are more
|
|
comprehensive walkthroughs of real-world, industry-specific, or end-to-end
|
|
development scenarios. The [Reference](/docs/reference/) section provides
|
|
detailed documentation on the [Kubernetes API](/docs/reference/generated/kubernetes-api/{{< param "version" >}}/)
|
|
and command-line interfaces (CLIs), such as [`kubectl`](/docs/reference/kubectl/).

|
### Stack Exchange, Stack Overflow, or Server Fault {#stack-exchange}
|
|
|
|
If you have questions related to *software development* for your containerized app,
|
|
you can ask those on [Stack Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/kubernetes).
|
|
|
|
If you have Kubernetes questions related to *cluster management* or *configuration*,
|
|
you can ask those on
|
|
[Server Fault](https://serverfault.com/questions/tagged/kubernetes).
|
|
|
|
There are also several more specific Stack Exchange network sites which might
|
|
be the right place to ask Kubernetes questions in areas such as
|
|
[DevOps](https://devops.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/kubernetes),
|
|
[Software Engineering](https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/kubernetes),
|
|
or [InfoSec](https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/kubernetes).
|
|
|
|
Someone else from the community may have already asked a similar question or
|
|
may be able to help with your problem.
|
|
|
|
The Kubernetes team will also monitor
|
|
[posts tagged Kubernetes](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/kubernetes).
|
|
If there aren't any existing questions that help, **please ensure that your question
|
|
is [on-topic on Stack Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/help/on-topic),
|
|
[Server Fault](https://serverfault.com/help/on-topic), or the Stack Exchange
|
|
Network site you're asking on**, and read through the guidance on
|
|
[how to ask a new question](https://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask),
|
|
before asking a new one!
|
|
|
|
### Slack
|
|
|
|
Many people from the Kubernetes community hang out on Kubernetes Slack in the `#kubernetes-users` channel.
|
|
Slack requires registration; you can [request an invitation](https://slack.kubernetes.io),
|
|
and registration is open to everyone). Feel free to come and ask any and all questions.
|
|
Once registered, access the [Kubernetes organisation in Slack](https://kubernetes.slack.com)
|
|
via your web browser or via Slack's own dedicated app.
|
|
|
|
Once you are registered, browse the growing list of channels for various subjects of
|
|
interest. For example, people new to Kubernetes may also want to join the
|
|
[`#kubernetes-novice`](https://kubernetes.slack.com/messages/kubernetes-novice) channel. As another example, developers should join the
|
|
[`#kubernetes-contributors`](https://kubernetes.slack.com/messages/kubernetes-contributors) channel.
|
|
|
|
There are also many country specific / local language channels. Feel free to join
|
|
these channels for localized support and info:
