Kubernetes cannot list nodes and is stuck in starting mode

[mmisztal1980]

• I have tried with the latest version of my channel (Stable or Edge)
• I have uploaded Diagnostics
• Diagnostics ID:
  • C27BC670-6246-4693-8216-8719C39097BF/20190729184718
  • C27BC670-6246-4693-8216-8719C39097BF/20190729185757

Expected behavior

Kubernetes should start successfully.

Actual behavior

Since a few days , kubernetes appears to be stuck in "starting" mode. Resets and factory resets have not helped.

Please advise, how can this be fixed?

[mmisztal1980]

I've attempted to start Kubernetes again, this time I've checked:

• Show system containers (advanced)

I don't see any k8s containers running which might be an explanation for the above log message(s)

[mmisztal1980]

Situation continues with the latest version 2.1.0.0 (36874) as of Aug 1st 2019

[mmisztal1980]

removing the %ProgramData%/DockerForDesktop/pki as described in #3799 seems to have fixed the issue for me.

[Aaronontheweb]

Ran into this issue as well. Going to try the fix.

[mmisztal1980]

@Aaronontheweb any success? I've also noticed that the name of the cluster context seems to have changed, previously it used to be docker-for-desktop, now I'm seeing docker-desktop - possibly related.

[Aaronontheweb]

Worked for me - resolved my issue

[I333750]

[ayushbathrey]
