Not able to deploy to Kubernetes cluster using Kompose - docker

Question

I'm currently deploying a project on a kubernetes cluster by using Kompose (http://www.kompose.io) to convert the docker-compose configuration to kubernetes configuration files.
This is a project for a master class at my university and they took care of the kubernetes cluster, so I'm almost certain that the configuration for it is done properly. FYI, this is the version of that kubernetes cluster;
$ kubectl version
Client Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"16", GitVersion:"v1.16.3", GitCommit:"b3cbbae08ec52a7fc73d334838e18d17e8512749", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2019-11-13T11:23:11Z", GoVersion:"go1.12.12", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"linux/amd64"}
Server Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"16", GitVersion:"v1.16.3", GitCommit:"b3cbbae08ec52a7fc73d334838e18d17e8512749", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2019-11-13T11:13:49Z", GoVersion:"go1.12.12", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"linux/amd64"}
This is the version of Kompose;
$ kompose version
1.20.0 (f3d54d784)
The problem that I have is as follows. I use the command kompose convert and this works without any problem, but when I try deploying it by using the command kompose up, it fails with the following error message.
FATA Error while deploying application: Get http://localhost:8080/api: dial tcp [::1]:8080: connect: connection refused
This is my first time using kubernetes and kompose. I've looked for others who also have this problem but nothing really helped for what I've found.
This is my docker-compose file at the moment:
(I'm aware I shouldn't put passwords in my docker-compose file but it's not part of the problem)

Anyone has any tips on how to troubleshoot this issue or how to fix it?
UPDATE:
These are the files generated by the kompose convert command

Answer 1

I've solved it by replacing all apiversions in the deployment files from v1beta2 to apps/v1 and by adding a selector to each deployment.
selector:
matchLabels:
app: ...
I then didn't use the command Kompose up to deploy since this gives me an error, but I used the command kubectl create -f <file(s)> to deploy and this succeeded without the connection error. There are still some pods crashing but I don't think it has anything to do with this original problem.
