```
kubectl logs web-deployment-76789f7f64-s2b4r

```

returns nothing! The console prompt returns without error. 

I have a pod which is in a CrashLoopbackOff cycle (but am unable to diagnose it) --> 

```
web-deployment-7f985968dc-rhx52       0/1       CrashLoopBackOff   6          7m

```

I am using Azure AKS with kubectl on Windows. I have been running this cluster for a few months without probs. The container runs fine on my workstation with docker-compose.

kubectl describe doesn't really help much - no useful information there.

```
kubectl describe pod web-deployment-76789f7f64-s2b4r
