Get files from chiseled image running in K8s as container

[McMlok]

Hello,

I'm using .NET 8 jammy-chiseled image as a base image for my application which runs in company K8s. When I want to check how I mount volumes to pod container I use kubectl debug but when I run ls /proc/PID/root/ I get access denied because PID runs under user 1654.

Does anybody know how to get to file system of running chiseled container in K8S?

Thank you

[Triage] You will need to access /proc/PID/root while running as a user with the same PID as your Chiseled container. It looks like kubectl debug has the option --as-uid (source). You could try and use that in combination with using one of our runtime-deps images (like mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/runtime-deps:8.0-jammy) as the ephemeral container since it already contains the user app with the UID 1654 (you can also access this from outside the image by checking the environment variable APP_UID).

Thank you, add user with same UID to busybox image was the magic.
