nginx-ingress-controller forever on "Scheduled for sync"

I have an ingress for my application:

apiVersion: kind: Ingress metadata: name: myapi-ingress annotations: "true" spec: ingressClassName: nginx rules: - host: mysite.com http: paths: - path: "/posts" pathType: Prefix backend: service: name: myservice port: number: 80 

When I run kubectl describe ing myapi-ingress, I can see that the ingress is stuck in sync state:

Events: Type Reason Age From Message ---- ------ ---- ---- ------- Normal Sync 26m (x2 over 27m) nginx-ingress-controller Scheduled for sync 

PS. Before this happens, I tried to install another ingress for internal usage under another namespace and ingressclassname.

I'm getting 404 when I try to hit this endpoint. Nothing in the logs.

What is the problem?

The problem was the host name set on the Ingress

I had this issue when I created a new ingress with a secretName: of another existing ingress (which caused a conflict)

Once I changed the secretName:, of the new ingress to a unique name, and re-deployed the ingress, the cert was created.
