"Failed to connect to database" : Keycloak Operator external database Config not working

Question

I checked this How to use for Keycloak operator custom resource using external database connection. I am using CloudSQL from Google platform as the external database source.

My configurations are

• keycloak-idm

apiVersion: keycloak.org/v1alpha1
kind: Keycloak
metadata:
  name: kiwigrid-keycloak-idm
spec:
  instances: 3
  externalAccess:
    enabled: false
  externalDatabase:
    enabled: true

• external db storage secret

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
    name: keycloak-db-secret
    namespace: kiwios-application
type: Opaque
stringData:
    POSTGRES_DATABASE: keycloak-storage
    POSTGRES_EXTERNAL_ADDRESS: pgsqlproxy.infra
    POSTGRES_EXTERNAL_PORT: "5432"
    POSTGRES_HOST: keycloak-postgresql
    POSTGRES_USERNAME: keycloak-user
    POSTGRES_PASSWORD: S1ly3AValJYBNR-fsptLYdT74
    POSTGRES_SUPERUSER: "true"

• storage database

apiVersion: sql.cnrm.cloud.google.com/v1beta1
kind: SQLDatabase
metadata:
  name: keycloak-storage
  namespace: kiwios-application
  annotations:
    cnrm.cloud.google.com/deletion-policy: "abandon"
spec:
  charset: UTF8
  collation: en_US.UTF8
  instanceRef:
    name: keycloak-storage-instance-pg
    namespace: infra

• storage users

apiVersion: sql.cnrm.cloud.google.com/v1beta1
kind: SQLUser
metadata:
  name: keycloak-user
  namespace: kiwios-application
  annotations:
    cnrm.cloud.google.com/deletion-policy: "abandon"
spec:
  instanceRef:
    name: keycloak-storage-instance-pg
    namespace: infra
  password:
    valueFrom:
      secretKeyRef:
        name: keycloak-db-secret
        key: POSTGRES_PASSWORD

And the error shown in Kubernetes console

It is not working. Anyone please help me to figure out what I am doing wrong.

Update: I deep dived with k9s console. As per keycloak-operator functionality it creates a external name for the database connection. which is here keycloak-postgresql

check image below

There is no error showing in keycloak-operator console. Only the keycloak-idm is not able to make a connection using this external name. It shows the below error.

Have you tried this way..!

apiVersion: v1

    POSTGRES_DATABASE: "keycloak-storage"
    POSTGRES_EXTERNAL_ADDRESS: "pgsqlproxy.infra"
    POSTGRES_EXTERNAL_PORT: "5432"
    POSTGRES_HOST: "keycloak-postgresql"
    POSTGRES_USERNAME: "keycloak-user"
    POSTGRES_PASSWORD: "S1ly3AValJYBNR-fsptLYdT74"
    POSTGRES_SUPERUSER: "true"

You can try changing the ENV variables into the secret you are using.
