09/10/2024, 12:28 PMHi! I recently went through exactly this process to learn k3s and try out the new Traefik 3 implementation of Gateway API instead of classic Kubernetes Ingress. I ended up uninstalling k3s, then reinstalling it with the
--disable=traefikb

09/10/2024, 12:57 PMhi @numerous-midnight-16903, thank you! I also went the route of installing k3s without traefik as it seemed rather bothersome to try to configure traefik's upgrade from 2 to 3.

09/10/2024, 12:59 PMNo worries, let me know if you have any questions! I ended up inadvertently documenting my experience while asking for help so maybe some of these steps will help you https://community.traefik.io/t/unable-to-create-working-httproute-with-traefik-3-1-0-on-k3s/24013

09/10/2024, 7:04 PMhave you checked the docs?

09/10/2024, 8:39 PMFWIW, we went through a migration from traefik to nginx. In our dev cluster, we're running a single controller, so we just went into the SystemD service and added
--disable=traefikfuture-fountain-82544
09/10/2024, 8:40 PMIf you're running a multi-node control plane, it may not be as graceful, but it was overall pretty smooth to disable the built-in controller.

09/10/2024, 8:41 PMThat said - I think what @creamy-pencil-82913 said might actually be a better option for you -- customize the version.

09/10/2024, 8:42 PMIf you ever need to tweak k3s / k3s-agent launch parameters, you can see them in most installs via
systemctl cat k3ssystemctl cat k3s-agentc

09/10/2024, 9:14 PMputting config in a config file is a better choice though, as it doesn’t get mangled by the install script if you re-run it.

09/11/2024, 1:59 PMThis is true; Speaking of which... If I want to move options into a config file, do I just setup a config file in a well-known place, and remove the options from the systemd unit?
future-fountain-82544
09/11/2024, 2:13 PMi'm struggling to find a reference for the k3s config file options -- I see some examples, and I see server/agent reference docs for CLI flags and environment variables, but no reference for the config file

09/11/2024, 4:42 PMYeah, that's a good example, but I couldn't find "how do I disable traefik via the config file?"
future-fountain-82544
09/11/2024, 4:42 PMOr rather, all the knobs I can tune in a config file

09/11/2024, 4:53 PMthe config file maps directly to CLI args. As that page says:
CLI arguments map to their respective YAML key, with repeatable CLI arguments being represented as YAML lists. Boolean flags are represented asortruein the YAML file.false
creamy-pencil-82913
09/11/2024, 4:53 PMSo, you can look at the server and agent CLI flag pages (https://docs.k3s.io/cli/server) or just
k3s server --helpcreamy-pencil-82913
09/11/2024, 4:54 PMthere is also https://docs.k3s.io/installation/packaged-components#using-the---disable-flag that specifically covers disabling packaged components

future-fountain-82544
09/11/2024, 5:00 PMOh I see now. 🤦 I was wondering how you handled lists, but it's just specifying the option multiple times
