I deployed my first container, I got info:

deployment.apps/frontarena-ads-deployment created

but then I saw my container creation is stuck in Waiting status. Then I saw the logs using kubectl describe pod frontarena-ads-deployment-5b475667dd-gzmlp and saw MountVolume error which I cannot figure out why it is thrown:

Warning FailedMount 9m24s kubelet MountVolume.SetUp failed for volume "ads-filesharevolume" : mount failed: exit status 32 Mounting command: systemd-run Mounting arguments: --description=Kubernetes transient mount for /var/lib/kubelet/pods/85aa3bfa-341a-4da1-b3de-fb1979420028/volumes/kubernetes.io~azure-file/ads-filesharevolume --scope -- mount -t cifs -o username=frontarenastorage,password=mypassword,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,vers=3.0 //frontarenastorage.file.core.windows.net/azurecontainershare /var/lib/kubelet/pods/85aa3bfa-341a-4da1-b3de-fb1979420028/volumes/kubernetes.io~azure-file/ads-filesharevolume Output: Running scope as unit run-rf54d5b5f84854777956ae0e25810bb94.scope. mount error(115): Operation now in progress Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

Before I run the deployment I created a secret in Azure, using the already created azure file share, which I referenced within the YAML.

$AKS_PERS_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME="frontarenastorage"
$STORAGE_KEY="mypassword"
kubectl create secret generic fa-fileshare-secret --from-literal=azurestorageaccountname=$AKS_PERS_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME --from-literal=azurestorageaccountkey=$STORAGE_KEY

In that file share I have folders and files which I need to mount and I reference azurecontainershare in YAML:

My YAML looks like this:
