2.2 CP Setup Script Error

johannespn

Hi there and thanks for helping.

I'm using the following virtual machine setup on Mac M1 chip.

$ multipass info --all                   
Name:           cp
State:          Running
IPv4:           192.168.64.6
                172.17.0.1
Release:        Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS
Image hash:     6de60c14be0f (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS)
CPU(s):         2
Load:           0.24 0.16 0.10
Disk usage:     2.3GiB out of 20.3GiB
Memory usage:   273.4MiB out of 7.8GiB
Mounts:         --

With this, I'm getting some errors on the LFD259/SOLUTIONS/s_02/k8scp.sh script. I've been executing the script line by line and the first errors come up here.

# Install the containerd software
$ curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
$ sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install containerd.io -y

E: Unable to locate package containerd.io
E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'containerd.io'
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'containerd.io'

I got around this by running

$ sudo apt-get install containerd -y

but then...

ubuntu@cp:~$ sudo crictl config --set runtime-endpoint=unix:///run/containerd/containerd.sock --set image-endpoint=unix:///run/containerd/containerd.sock
/usr/local/bin/crictl: 1: Syntax error: end of file unexpected (expecting ")")
ubuntu@cp:~$ sudo kubeadm init --pod-network-cidr=192.168.0.0/16 | sudo tee /var/log/kubeinit.log
 
[init] Using Kubernetes version: v1.27.3
[preflight] Running pre-flight checks
error execution phase preflight: [preflight] Some fatal errors occurred:
    [ERROR CRI]: container runtime is not running: output: , error: executable file not found in $PATH
[preflight] If you know what you are doing, you can make a check non-fatal with `--ignore-preflight-errors=...`
To see the stack trace of this error execute with --v=5 or higher

Can somebody please help me troubleshoot this?

Hi @johannespn,

I remember some strange behaviors reported a while back on environments provisioned with multipass. You may find some tips in those earlier posts.
One thing I'd recommend however, to not assign 192.168.x.y IP addresses to your VMs, because that very same private network will be used for the application pods network layer, and such overlaps will cause routing conflicts in your cluster.

I just ran the installation steps, and it seems that the recommended containerd.io package from Docker repo installs just fine. It is the most up to date package, as opposed to the containerd package downloaded from Ubuntu repo, that may be older. On M1 you may run into issues with some container images not supporting the chipset, so you'd need to find alternate images built specifically for the ARM architecture.

Regards,
-Chris

Hi and thanks a lot, I solved by running my cluster on AWS instead. The costs are quite cheap

Hi,
I was having the same issue with installation today. I've modified the script slightly so now it runs on arm64 architecture without any errors.
