How to recover a deployment after accidentally deleting it

[wss29]

hi,

Issue: Deployment Not Recreated After Deleting PersistentVolumeClaim

When using Keycloak to create a user and log in to launch the app, Theia Cloud creates a deployment as shown below:

kubectl get deployment -n my-namespace

I created one user:

1. User "wss" → Deployment ID: session-wssyff-sunwise-ide12-311fe11a5add

Problem

Due to an accidental deletion, the PersistentVolumeClaim (PVC) used by deployment session-wssyff-sunwise-ide12-311fe11a5add was removed.

To recover, I deleted the deployment, expecting it to be recreated automatically. However, it did not recreate.

Now, when launching the app again with user "wss", I encounter this error:

Question

How can I restore the deployment and its associated PVC so that the user "wss" can successfully launch the app again?

Hi, could you please check whether there is a leftover workspace still associated with the session?

kubectl get workspaces -n my-namespace

You might need to delete it manually.

Also, are there any hints in the operator logs?

hi @jfaltermeier
Thanks! After deleting the related workspace, it can be recreated correctly
