I am getting the same error while trying to setup meshery on minikube using mesheryctl,looking for potential solutions.

turns out this a common problem faced by many starting with meshery, you need move minikube certificate

cp ~/minikube/ca.crt  /usr/share/pki/anchor

then

sudo update-ca-certificates

Thanks for your reply, but i installed the meshery on Mac not linux. I will try the same idea to reproduce this solution.

Are you using a docker driver to start up minikube

Are you referring to using minikube start --driver=docker to start the Minikube cluster? If so, then yes, that’s correct. However, I’m now only running Meshery CLI with Docker, and it’s working. i’m still confused how to run mesherycli with minikube.

Hi @JianMin.Tang
Did you checked this section of Meshery docs? Minikube | Meshery

Generally, minifying kubeconfig fixes x509 issues.

kubectl config view --minify --flatten > config_minikube.yaml
