CKA Lab 3.1 failed to initialize the control plane
Background information:
VM host environment: ESXi 6.5
VM OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
The lab guided to install containerd in step 13.
I followed the steps in the lab until step 24 to initialize the control plane with the following command:
kubeadm init --config=kubeadm-config.yaml --upload-certs | tee kubeadm-init.out
With the output below:
[init] Using Kubernetes version: v1.23.1 [preflight] Running pre-flight checks [preflight] WARNING: Couldn't create the interface used for talking to the container runtime: docker is required for container runtime: exec: "docker": executable file not found in $PATH error execution phase preflight: docker is required for container runtime: exec: "docker": executable file not found in $PATH To see the stack trace of this error execute with --v=5 or higher [preflight] Pulling images required for setting up a Kubernetes cluster [preflight] This might take a minute or two, depending on the speed of your internet connection [preflight] You can also perform this action in beforehand using 'kubeadm config images pull'
And then I tried to include "--skip-phases=preflight" in my command and execute again:kubeadm init --skip-phases=preflight --config=kubeadm-config.yaml --upload-certs | tee kubeadm-init.out
The output is as follows:

Unfortunately, an error has occurred: error execution phase wait-control-plane: couldn't initialize a Kubernetes cluster To see the stack trace of this error execute with --v=5 or higher timed out waiting for the condition This error is likely caused by: - The kubelet is not running - The kubelet is unhealthy due to a misconfiguration of the node in some way (required cgroups disabled) If you are on a systemd-powered system, you can try to troubleshoot the error with the following commands: - 'systemctl status kubelet' - 'journalctl -xeu kubelet' Additionally, a control plane component may have crashed or exited when started by the container runtime. To troubleshoot, list all containers using your preferred container runtimes CLI. Here is one example how you may list all Kubernetes containers running in docker: - 'docker ps -a | grep kube | grep -v pause' Once you have found the failing container, you can inspect its logs with: - 'docker logs CONTAINERID'
I have no idea on what the problem is. Hope I can get help from others here. Thanks a lot.

Hi @johnyip,
Please remember to run a
kubeadm reset
after each failedkubeadm init
orjoin
attempt.How many network interfaces are attached on each VM instance, and what are their respective network types?
What are the private IP addresses of the two VMs, and what IP address was added to
/etc/hosts
in step 21?Did you disable all hypervisor firewalls to allow all traffic to your VMs? - all traffic meaning all protocols, to all ports, from all sources.
Is the guest OS/Ubuntu firewall disabled?
In order to ensure the correct container runtime endpoint is selected, as in containerd instead of docker, you can use the
--cri-socket /run/containerd/containerd.sock
option with thekubeadm init
command.Regards,
-Chris0
