Fix a Misconfigured Ingress

The application should be reachable at http://content.prepium.local/content, but requesting that URL currently returns an error — the Ingress is misconfigured and traffic never reaches the Service.

The task

Context

A Deployment named content-app in namespace prepium is meant to be exposed through Ingress content-app-ingress. The manifests for the Deployment, Service, and Ingress are at /root/content-app/.

Task

The application should be reachable at http://content.prepium.local/content, but requesting that URL currently returns an error — the Ingress is misconfigured and traffic never reaches the Service.

Investigate the Ingress and the Service it points to, find the misconfiguration, and correct it so the route works.

What this tests

Expose workloads with services and ingress, and restrict traffic with network policies. On the CKAD exam, Services & Networking tasks are graded purely on what you build in the cluster — not multiple choice — so the only way to get faster is to do them on a real cluster against a clock.

Practice it for real

prepium.sh drops you into your own isolated Kubernetes cluster in the browser — no install, no credit card. You solve the task in a real terminal, hit validate, and a programmatic checker scores exactly what you got right and wrong (with partial credit). The canonical solution unlocks after you attempt it, so you learn the fast, exam-ready way to do it.
