Minikube: Unauthorized to kubernetes-dashboard?

[ahmetb]

• OS: Mac OS X
• minikube v0.8.0
• brew install kubernetes-cli (v1.3.5).

$ minikube start --> worked
$ minikube ip
192.168.99.100

$ kubectl cluster-info

Kubernetes master is running at https://192.168.99.100:8443
kubernetes-dashboard is running at https://192.168.99.100:8443/api/v1/proxy/namespaces/kube-system/services/kubernetes-dashboard

To further debug and diagnose cluster problems, use 'kubectl cluster-info dump'.

So I click https://192.168.99.100:8443/api/v1/proxy/namespaces/kube-system/services/kubernetes-dashboard

After passing invalid TLS cert error I just get Unauthorized message on the response body for the dashboard. How does the dashboard work with minikube?

The minikube dashboard command will open up the dashboard

@r2d4 ah thanks! Though it would be nice UX-wise if kubectl was aware of this somehow.

In case your server has no x11 display, use minikube dashboard --url to learn the url to open:

   [root@localhost ~]# minikube dashboard --url
   http://192.168.99.100:30000

if you use virtualbox, open a port forward with:

    vboxmanage  controlvm minikube natpf1 rule2,tcp,,30000,,30000

if you use centos open the local firewall:

     firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=30000/tcp --permanent
     firewall-cmd --reload

Now you should be able to open from a remote browser with the public ip of your host (server)

    http://<public-ip>:30000/
