Hi and Good Day,

Im now trying to bind a domain to my Rasa X deployment ( Helm Chart - mirok8s ) Googling here and there it seems I need to use Ingress as I would go for ssl.

However as for my current deployment the external IP I’ve pointed to Nginx service, which I’m currently accessing my rasa-x through http://:8000

my yml values for nginx as below

```

while the ingress as below

yml values for my ingress

```
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1

              number: 8000
        path: /
        pathType: ImplementationSpecific

```

By pointing [myrasa.com](http://myrasa.com) to my machine /etc/hosts file Im hoping able to access my rasa-x via [http://myrasa.com](http://myrasa.com) instead of http://:8000

Anyone can advice how to get this working. My rasa x request later will be served by a load balancer which provide proxy ssl, which I planned to get the ingress working as point of communication to the load balancer.

Thank YouPreformatted text

hey @hiorie, can you try turning off nginx and only use Ingress with your actual host name? you need to have only one of ingress or nginx turned on.

Hi Desmarchris,

Thank you for the reply. How can I do that ? I planned to use ingress as I would like to setup https using ingress later. So I want to off the nginx.

And now I getting more confuse as my ingress is in another namespace and my rasa x is in another namespace. The ingress is default enable when I issue mickrok8s ingress enable.

Thank you for your kind assistant

turn off nginx in your values override file setting this to false: [rasa-x-helm/values.yaml at main · RasaHQ/rasa-x-helm · GitHub](https://github.com/RasaHQ/rasa-x-helm/blob/main/charts/rasa-x/values.yaml#L510)

so you’ll have:

```auto
nginx:
  enabled: false

```

the ingress resource you see in the other namespace should be fine. That’s just the controller enabling you to create the ingress routes. once you turn off nginx and redeploy, you should see 4 routes show up when you run `kubectl get ingress` in your rasa namespace

hovewer I only have 3 routes in ingress

and when I accessed [rasa-x.example.com](http://rasa-x.example.com) ( which I pointed to my my pc localhost ) I got nginx error

 ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/rasa/original/3X/a/5/a56aeca77fece7346ce2211f9236f08f2f1fe09d.png)

Hi All,

I’ve enable metallb and traefik, what should I do next to expose my rasa x to outside world.

Below is my cluster service and ingress. Any help and guide is much appreciated.
