unable to run ktail

[lakamsani]

~ ktail --version
ktail 1.0.1

 ktail  foo-pod -n foo
stat /Users/vamsee.lakamsani/.kube/lab.yaml:/Users/vamsee.lakamsani/.kube/config no such file or directory%

kubectl works fine in the same terminal. Context is already set with cluster and namespace using kubectl config use-context. Same issue with the --context flag as well. Somethi

That's an old version. Try installing the latest one.

That run was from the binary installed using hombrew instructions.

Jut pulled the latest from the main branch and built it. Shows the same version and has the same error.

➜  ktail git:(main) git remote -v
origin	https://github.com/atombender/ktail (fetch)
origin	https://github.com/atombender/ktail (push)
➜  ktail git:(main) go build
➜  ktail git:(main) ./ktail --version
ktail 1.0.1

Should I build from a different branch?

Another engineer on my team is seeing the same problem.

Your Homebrew must be out of date, and you must have forgotten to do a git pull.

You have to do one of the following:

• brew up && brew upgrade ktail
• git pull && go build -o ktail .
• Download one of the binaries from the releases page

I cloned this repo for the first time today. So git pull is not the issue. https://github.com/atombender/ktail/blob/v1.3.0/version.go#L7 still shows 1.0.1 although the releases directory shows 1.3.0. Anyways, neither local build nor binary download work. We will look into using stern or kubetail unless you have any other suggestions to try. Thanks.

We are using go version go1.19.1 darwin/amd64 btw.

[atombender]

I see your problem now; you have two files in your KUBECONFIG path. I've just pushed a fix tagged as 1.3.1 that should fix this. Also, the version printed on --version was out of date.

[lakamsani]

That works. Thank you very much.
