• [ ] Is this problem already documented at https://docs.ubuntu.com/conjure-up/en/troubleshoot#common-spell-problems - No
• [ ] Is conjure-up running inside a virtual machine? No
• [ ] Is this problem reproducible with sudo snap refresh conjure-up --edge? No When using --edge its even more useless. In this case the result is that it hangs with:

Juju Controller is initializing. Please wait.

Additional Information

Im very interested to hear from anyone who has successfully installed kubernetes using conjure-up. Does this actually work?

Alternative solution? Is it possible to install Kubernetes on Ubuntu without using conjure-up? I understand that conjure-up is supposed to make the process easy. I have now wasted 2 days trying to get this to work. Are there any ansible roles, or other more stable methods to install kubernetes?

Ever wanted to get started with Kubernetes, Deep Learning, Big Data but didn't want to go through pages and pages of "Getting Started" documentation?

The getting started / install documentation for Kubernetes only gives the option (?) of using conjure-up to install on ubuntu. Is this really the only way? Surely there is a simpler way?

Verbose? Is it possible to run conjure-up and get some kind of output? It typically hangs - and there is no errors, or any useful output. Why is it on the screen that says the following, I am not able to see what is going on? What exactly initializing?

Juju Controller is initializing. Please wait.                                            

                       Waiting... 

Is it correct that you've made a cli application that has no verbose output, and no way to get an understanding of why it hangs?

positional arguments:
  spell                 The name ('openstack-nclxd') or location

                        one may be created
  controller            Name of a juju controller to target. If not provided,
                        a new one is created.
  model                 Name of a juju model to target. If not provided, a new

optional arguments:

                        further customize your deployment.

  --bootstrap-to <host>.maas
                        The MAAS node hostname to deploy to. Useful for using
                        lower end hardware as the Juju admin controller.
  --version             show program's version number and exit
  --notrack             Opt out of sending anonymous usage information to
                        Canonical.

                        Path to a bundle fragment file which will be
                        subtracted from the spell's bundle
  --channel {stable,candidate,beta,edge}
                        conjure-up spell from a release channel

I tried running with --debug flag, but didnt notice any difference.
I'm completely at a lost as to what is going wrong - there is no feedback, no errors, no output in the terminal - which kind of defeats the benefit of a terminal application.

Which versions of Ubuntu are supported? I am trying to install kubernetes on a fresh install of 17.10.1 server. However its clearly not working. Am I supposed to use another version?

No timeout? I've been waiting for a few hours now, and still Juju Controller is initializing. Please wait. Perhaps an indication of how long I should have to wait, or a timeout.

Can you attach the tarball of ~/.cache/conjure-up?

Exactly the same problem here. My tarball is attached.

Also, exactly the same problem here. Clean install of Kubuntu 18.04

I was able to resolve the issue with a new lxd init and deactivate ipv6 networking in the lxd init wizzard.
At the time of this writing, you also have to switch the storage backend from "zfs" - which is the default - to "dir".

[adam-stokes]

Which is all stated here: https://docs.conjure-up.io/stable/en/user-manual#users-of-lxd and https://docs.conjure-up.io/stable/en/spellbooks/kubernetes#limitations
