Error while installing kubernetes

[sandramsc]

mecheryctl uses the current Kubernetes context (on local machine)…my machine might be underpowered to handle kubernetes as indicated by errors and thus cluster doesn’t start.

I followed this installation guide to install kubernetes. The errors at step 6 persist on my end with and without the flag. I gathered, it could be that my laptop system isn’t able to host kubernetes.

Laptop:

• Intel Core™ i3-6006U CPU @ 2.00GHz

MemAvailable:

• 1.337GB

OS:

• Ubuntu 20.04

Any workaround suggestions - for a lower powered machine to get a cluster running?

Otherwise I’ll be giving it a go with

[sandramsc]

I’ll try installing using minikube, mikrok8s, K3s as a possible solution to the current available memory…

Given k3s’s hardware requirements, your thought about its potential use seems like a worthwhile investigation.

Another option is using a remote cluster either self-installed on a free tier EC2 instance or managed service; e.g. GKE, Civo, Cast or similar.

[sandramsc]

Managed to install kubernetes locally with microk8s and succefully deployed meshery.

Hi @sandramsc one quick question which may help me resolve https://discuss.layer5.io/t/cluster-unreachable-in-cluster-install-of-meshery-on-kind/4191.
Have you done an in-cluster or out-of-cluster install of meshery ?
If in-cluster,
Is the cluster you installed meshery on reachable via the Meshery UI ?

[sandramsc]

The mikrok8s tutorial I followed didn’t specifically talk about in/out cluster deployment, you could consider going through it to see if it helps resolve your specific issue?

Hi, @sandramsc I was trying to create a Kube cluster with mikrok8s as well, So I followed the official doc, and I have a few questions

1. Did you use any specific config (json/yaml) while creating the kube cluster?
2. Have you ever faced this error?

Thanks.
