    Fix Rancher terminating namespace problem

Requirements


jq
kubectl

Config your terminal for access rancher cluster


Download kubeconfig file


Config your terminal, export your new kubeconfig

KUBECONFIG=<kubeconfig-downloaded>.yaml

Enable proxy, when you do it, you will get an out similar to this: Your kube context contains a server path /k8s/clusters/<cluster-code> save that code from the path for later

kubectl proxy
Delete terminating namespace


Config some env variables in another terminal

NAMESPACE=<namespace-for-eliminating>
CLUSTER=<cluster-code>
KUBECONFIG=<kubeconfig-downloaded>.yaml

Update namespace config in a file

kubectl get namespace $NAMESPACE -o json | jq '.spec = {"finalizers":[]}' > temp.json

Apply new config

curl -k -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X PUT --data-binary @temp.json 127.0.0.1:8001/k8s/clusters/$CLUSTER/api/v1/namespaces/$NAMESPACE/finalize
After these commands, the terminating namespace will disappear
