Got error: unknown flag: --command in Lesson 12 : Basic Troubleshooting Step Error:

weijenlu

In Lession 12 Basic Troubleshooting Step Error,
I ran the example "kubectl create deploy busybox --image=busybox --command sleep 3600".

But I got error message:

Error: unknown flag: --command
See 'kubectl create deployment --help' for usage.

Check kubectl create --help, I can not find --comand flag. Maybe it has been deprecated.

I run this command in my local minikube.

Thank you.

This wasn't fixed in the current revision of LFS258. See Lesson 13, "Basic Troubleshooting Steps."

If anyone is still having this issue, you can pass sleep command to busybox (or any other container) like this:

kubectl create deploy busybox --image=busybox -- sleep 3600

January of 2025 and still no fix in the course. [Content removed by admins as it does not adhere to forum etiquette] This is negligent at this point.
