EKS Nodes not Registering in Target Group using ALB Ingress Controller

I have followed the below AWS document to create an ALB ingress controller;

https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/eks-alb-ingress-controller-setup/

EKS: version: 1.19

All the services are created successfully, with no errors.

But unfortunately, the nodes are not registered in the target groups of the ALB.

I also tried the alb ingress controller with a different version, but the same issue found.

used the example application;

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/aws-load-balancer-controller/v2.1.3/docs/examples/2048/2048_full.yaml

Output below;

Ingress -->

[centos@ip-10-1-68-249 alb-controller]$ kubectl get ing -n game-2048 -o wide

but the instance is not attached to the target group;

I had exactly the same issue, just newer cluster version (1.22). The problem was with security group configuration for managed nodes.

First sign of trouble made itself apparent while browsing logs for the aws-load-balancer-controller pods

I noticed an error:

{"...","error":"expect exactly one securityGroup tagged with kubernetes.io/cluster/... for eni eni-0d46id..., got: [sg-081baacc1d925f936 sg-0a11d768e92737297]"}

This made me look at security group configuration. I noticed I attach the primary cluster group right to the nodes as well as their normal node-to-node group, which is excess.

Since I used terraform for the deployment and the official aws-eks module [1], I only had to remove this parameter from node group configuration:

attach_cluster_primary_security_group = true

Once deployed, and after rebooting the ingress controller, it automatically picked up the services and created necessary resources.

I have tried with an alternative option,

describe the targetgroupbinding -->

[centos@ip-10-0-68-81 ~]$ kubectl describe targetgroupbinding -n prod-env --kubeconfig=$prod | grep Target
Kind:         TargetGroupBinding
  Target Group ARN:  arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:us-east-1:123456789098:targetgroup/k8s-prodenv-prodadmi-873264jwesa/87432kjfhkjds
  Target Type:       instance

And taken the arn of the Target Group, and used targetgroupbinding api to create the additional targetgroupbinding, which works for me;

apiVersion: elbv2.k8s.aws/v1beta1
kind: TargetGroupBinding
metadata:
  name: k8s-uat-test-1
  namespace: "uat-env"
  labels:
    k8s/environment: staging
spec:
  serviceRef:
    name: uat-test-service
    port: 3002
  targetGroupARN: arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:us-east-1:123456789098:targetgroup/k8s-prodenv-prodadmi-873264jwesa/87432kjfhkjds
