Did you deactive the license before deleting the Ignition pod and trying to redeploy? Call support. They can directly handle license issues for you, they have in the past for me.

Do you have a leased license key? (8 characters) Or a permanent license key? (6 characters)

Kubernetes and other container technologies need a leased license key. If you have the wrong kind, contact your sales agent.

There are also settings you can use with leased licenses to recover them quickly by releasing the lease on gateway shutdown (instead of waiting, ~4hrs IIRC).

There is some information on how to leverage 8-digit leased licensing with Ignition on K8s via our Helm Chart over here: Licensing Ignition | Inductive Automation Helm Charts
