title: Troubleshooting
---
<!-- overview -->
Sometimes things go wrong. This guide is aimed at making them right. It has
two sections:
* [Troubleshooting your application](/docs/tasks/debug-application-cluster/debug-application/) - Useful
for users who are deploying code into Kubernetes and wondering why it is not working.
* [Troubleshooting your cluster](/docs/tasks/debug-application-cluster/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.
<!-- body -->
## 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/overview/).
## Help! My question isn't covered! I need help now!
### Stack Overflow
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
[ask a new one](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/ask?tags=kubernetes)!
### 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-dev`](https://kubernetes.slack.com/messages/kubernetes-dev) channel.
There are also many country specific / local language channels. Feel free to join
these channels for localized support and info:
