I'm using a Chromebook Pixel 2, and it's easier to get Rocket working than Docker. I recently installed Rocket 1.1 into /usr/local/bin, and have a clone of the Kubernetes GitHub repo.
When I try to use ./hack/local-up-cluster.sh to start a cluster, it eventually fails with this message:
Failed to successfully run 'docker ps', please verify that docker is installed and $DOCKER_HOST is set correctly.
According to the docs, k8s supports Rocket. Can someone please guide me about how to start a local cluster without a working Docker installation?
Thanks in advance.
You need to set three environment variables before running ./hack/local-up-cluster.h:
$ export CONTAINER_RUNTIME=rkt
$ export RKT_PATH=$PATH_TO_RKT_BINARY
$ export RKT_STAGE1_IMAGE=PATH=$PATH_TO_STAGE1_IMAGE
This is described in the docs for getting started with a local rkt cluster.
Try running export CONTAINER_RUNTIME="rocket" and then re-running the script.

I have a rancher installation on cloud (integrated with harvester) and a couple of VM's in a local node (with K3os), created with harvester.
Now I would like to connect the K3S cluster running on a VM with rancher, but when I try to run in the VM the script of agent given to me by rancher, it goes into an error:
systemctl: command not found
Am I doing something wrong?
I found the problem.
When you run a VM with k3os, a k3s cluster within it is also started in the VM as mentioned before. So I was wrong choosing "Create a cluster", i should have chosen instead "import a cluster". In this way, the script you run into the VM works perfectly.
Dear StackOverflow community!
I am trying to run the https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/microservices-demo locally on minikube, so I am following their development guide: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/microservices-demo/blob/master/docs/development-guide.md
After I successfully set up minikube (using virtualbox driver, but I tried also hyperkit, however the results were the same) and execute skaffold run, after some time it will end up with following error:
Building [shippingservice]...

The error message suggest that DNS does not work. I tried to add 8.8.8.8 to /etc/resolv.conf on a minikube VM, but it did not help. I've noticed that after I re-run skaffold run and it fails again, the content /etc/resolv.conf returns to its original state containing 10.0.2.3 as the only DNS entry. Reaching the outside internet and pinging 8.8.8.8 form within the minikube VM works.
Could you point me to a direction how can possible I fix the problem and learn on how the DNS inside minikube/kubernetes works? I've heard that problems with DNS inside Kubernetes cluster are frequent problems you run into.
Thanks for your answers!
Best regards,
Richard
Tried it with docker driver, i.e. minikube start --driver=docker, and it works. Thanks Brian!
Sounds like issue was resolved for OP but if one is using docker inside minikube then below suggestion worked for me.
Ref: https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/issues/10830
minikube ssh
$>sudo vi /etc/docker/daemon.json
# Add "dns": ["8.8.8.8"]
# save and exit
$>sudo systemctl restart docker
from this example. DockerOperator has the docker_url parameter which is "URL of the host running the docker daemon.".
But when i run in Kubernetes engine on Google Cloud Platform, how can i find this docker_url on Kubernetes?
You can run the following command to find out the docker url:
$docker-machine url [docker_machine_name]
Docker machine is not installed on the container images by default. You will have to install docker-machine manually by following these steps.
You will also have to use the Ubuntu image if you would like this functionality. I tried to install docker machine using a cos image, and it does not work since the image does not have the necessary dependencies.
I'm wondering how can install a package inside the minikube VM. I need some tools.
I have tried the /bin/toolbox container, but It does not have internet conexion.
[root#docker-fedora-24 ~]# dnf update --verbose
cachedir: /var/cache/dnf
DNF version: 1.1.9
Cannot download 'https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f24&arch=x86_64': Cannot prepare internal mirrorlist: Curl error (6): Couldn't resolve host name for https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f24&arch=x86_64 [Could not resolve host: mirrors.fedoraproject.org].
Error: Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'updates'
I have tried the same toolbox script in my computer and it is properly working.
What configuration parameters I'm missing in minikube or systemd-nspaw?
Or how can I cook a customized minikube VM?
Thanks a lot
You can run minicube without VM on your local docker (if you use linux):
minikube start --vm-driver=none
A alternative, run toolbox with docker run --net=host ... to make network for container more transparent. Troubleshoot your internet connection with nslookup, traceroute/tracepath, curl -v, ifconfig.

Minikube is not meant to be tweaked. The advised method is to prepare a helm chart for your application. As part of the helm chart you can add whatever tool you need in your docker file... Including make... Then you can install or upgrade your package in kubernetes/minikube using helm.
I had a similar problem when I wanted to use tcpdump in the minikube VM.
I ended up using minikube mount SRC-dir:DST-dir to mount the host folder inside the VM and copying the tcpdump binary along with dependent libs (libcrypto and libpcap) to the mount point.
Then I executed tcpdump from the minikube VM and it worked.
Note: My host arch and the minikube VM arch (x86_64) was the same.
Note also: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:DST-dir has to be done.
I am trying to install Kubernetes locally on my CentOS. I am following this blog http://containertutorials.com/get_started_kubernetes/index.html, with appropriate changes to match CentOS and latest Kubernetes version.
./kube-up.sh script runs and exists with no errors and I don't see the server started on port 8080. Is there a way to know what was the error and if there is any other procedure to follow on CentOS 6.3
The easiest way to install the kubernetes cluster is using kubeadm. The initial post which details the steps of setup is here. And the detailed documentation for the kubeadm can be found here. With this you will get the latest released kubernetes.
If you really want to use the script to bring up the cluster, I did following:
Install the required packages
yum install -y git docker etcd
Start docker process
systemctl enable --now docker
Install golang
Latest go version because default centos golang is old and for kubernetes to compile we need at least go1.7
curl -O https://storage.googleapis.com/golang/go1.8.1.linux-amd64.tar.gz
tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.8.1.linux-amd64.tar.gz
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
Setup GOPATH
export GOPATH=~/go
export GOBIN=$GOPATH/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$GOBIN
Download k8s source and other golang dependencies
Note: this might take sometime depending on your internet speed
go get -d k8s.io/kubernetes
go get -u github.com/cloudflare/cfssl/cmd/...
Start cluster
cd $GOPATH/src/k8s.io/kubernetes
./hack/local-up-cluster.sh
In new terminal
alias kubectl=$GOPATH/src/k8s.io/kubernetes/cluster/kubectl.sh
kubectl get nodes
