Error restarting cluster: restarting kube-proxy: waiting for kube-proxy to be up for configmap update: timed out waiting for the condition

Question

I am trying to start a local Kubernetes cluster using minikube start and getting the following error.

Starting local Kubernetes v1.10.0 cluster.         


        

Answer 1

Below steps works for me :

Note : Do not work with root user

$ sudo minikube stop

$ sudo minikube delete

$ sudo rm -rf ~/.minikube

$ sudo minikube start --kubernetes-version=v1.12.4

you can specify any existing kubernetes version of your choice with prefix v compulsory

make sure .minikube directory created in users home directory but not in /root

Answer 2

following are the points to be remembered while starting minikube for such errors.

1) close the VirtualBox if opened.
2) delete the previous temp files generated.
3) if you are behind the proxy set the proxy.
4) then do the following...

    $ minikube stop
    $ minikube delete  
    $ minikube start
