Error configuring microk8s

edreir

Hello,

I am on mac ventura 13.2.1 and I installed and now configuring microk8s, when running:

microk8s install

I got the error message:

An error occurred when trying to execute 'sudo ping -c 1 snapcraft.io' with 'multipass': returned exit code 1.

Any help on how to fix will be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi @edreir,

Does your host meet the physical requirements noted on the official installation page?

Note: Installing MicroK8s with Multipass requires macOS Yosemite, version 10.10.3 or later installed on hardware from 2010 onwards. It will also require at least 4GB of available RAM and 40GB of storage.

Yes it does

Hi @edreir,

Can you run the same ping command to snapcraft.io from your host, outside of the microk8s install? Is it successful?

interesting I pinged and it reached the server then I was able to install, not sure if the ping execution was the fix, but unfortunately it returned a different error:

An error occurred with the instance when trying to launch with 'multipass': returned exit code 2.
Ensure that 'multipass' is setup correctly and try again.

should I open a new thread for this error?

Thank you

Hi @edreir,

Have you tried maybe re-installing multipass? If something got misconfigured the first time around, it may get fixed.
