try changing the provider in jx-requirements.yaml to kubernetes? It defaults to GKE

@garethjevans thanks for your help. One more question, I am following the guide. git clone https://github.com/jenkins-x/jenkins-x-boot-config.git my-jx-config

but i can't find the values.yaml. Any suggestion would be very helpful

Changing provider in jx-requirements.yaml to kubernetes did resolve the error

[jstrachan]

sounds like the workaround is to use provider: kubernetes in the jx-requirements.yml

[cannibal-kush]

I get this from a clean install. Not very friendly to get this at

jx boot

What if I'm using Azure, do I put provider: azure in there?

[curx]

@cannibal-kush
try: aks => Jenkins X Boot configuration for Azure Container Engine
jx install --provider=aks ... or at the set jx-requirements.yml provider to aks"

list providers:

jx install --help
...
--provider='': Cloud service providing the Kubernetes cluster.  Supported providers: aks, alibaba, aws, eks, gke, icp, iks, jx-infra, kubernetes, minikube, minishift, oke, openshift, pks
...

[sureshpalemoni]

jx boot has only been validated on GKE and EKS, we'd love feedback and contributions for other Kubernetes providers ??

[bitsofinfo]

well it definitely doesn't work w/ aks! i get the same error.

[sbussard]

It doesn't work with DigitalOcean ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
