Disable pki error

Vault
1

We have an ‘old’ (1.0.1) vault server running atop on kubernetes clusters.
This clusters uses GCS as backend.

Today we try to disable an pki, vault cli shows up error an timeout but when we try to delete it again, an error on vault is displayed

2020-06-09T13:39:28.952Z [ERROR] core: failed to clear view for path being unmounted: error="failed to delete key "logical/abd9afcd-5a88-b4b0-f83d-eb603499ad8f/certs/4d-17-b0-32-76-73-5d-94-85-be-2b-5e-6f-92-47-a3-f4-19-b7-6b": context canceled" path=pki/k8s.southamerica-east1.gcp.tks.sh/tc64871/kubernetes/

Others pki, we are abble to disable, but this not.
Another thing I have noted, this path does not exists on GCS. Seems it was deleted and a kind of “metadata” keeps on vault.

Hey there, just wondering if you managed to find a solution to this? I have the exact same problem :frowning:
Appreciate if you can help out if you managed to find a solution!

Thanks

Hi Suzana,

I take a look on vault an this pki still exists, and now, I deleted it with success. I have no idea what happen and how it solved “byself”.
