Kubernetes cluster

GKE cluster tried with jx create gke --skip-install and manual creation

Operating system / Environment

Windows 10/Powershell

You need install sh into Windows.

[nodece]

Assume installed bash or sh into Windows.

The following is working in Windows 10/Powershell:

bash
jx create gke --skip-install 

I submitted a PR to fix it in https://github.com/jenkins-x/jx/pull/7096.

[ACB1337]

if you execute bash in Powershell you are starting WSL. So no it is not working on Windows it is working on Linux.

[nodece]

Sorry @ACB1337 , I provide a wrong message.

We cannot run /bin/sh in Windows. Need to consider the Windows platform.

I will to fix it.

[nodece]

What do you think that run sh in Windows?

[mdcme]

im also getting this issue.

[nodece]

I would submit a PR.

[nodece]

I submitted a PR to fix it in #7096.

Hi @ACB1337, were you able to try this fix?

[vbottu]

I am also getting the same issue in windows 10 with jenkins bootconfig version 1.0.85

[nodece]

@vbottu Is using the latest jx? You need run it in sh/bash.

[Woland2k]

still getting the same error running jx 2.1.24, which should just call sh command and not /bin/sh

error: failed to interpret pipeline file jenkins-x.yml: failed to run '/bin/sh -c jx step git validate' command in directory 'workspace\source\workspace\source\env', output: ''

[nodece]

@Woland2k Could you create a new issue for the question?

[Woland2k]

@nodece it is exactly the same error as described, but ok, I can create a new issue
