Istio Gateway resource created but not listed in any kubernetes namespace

Question

I'm installing the following Gateway resouce in my GKE cluster:

apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: Gateway
metadata:
  name: default-gateway
  namespace: istio-system
spec:
  selector:
    istio: istio-ingressgateway
  servers:
  - port:
      name: http-web
      number: 80
      protocol: HTTP2
    hosts:
    - "*"

With command kubectl apply -f gateway.yaml (have also tried with kubectl create)

Output: gateway.networking.istio.io/default-gateway created

But when I try to list it in k9s no gateway is visible:

Same result if I try to list all resources in all namespaces no gateway created:

kubectl get all --all-namespaces

Have tried searching also in same namespace istio-system but no results.

tried also istioctl but all seems in order:

istioctl analyze -n istio-system                

✔ No validation issues found when analyzing namespace: istio-system.

Answer 1

What you're seeing in k9s is a different Gateway crd, probably gateways.gateway.networking.k8s.io.

Running kubectl get gateways.networking.istio.io should show you the created resource.
