Thank you for sharing your experience! If you don't mind, could you please provide:

• The exact command-lines used, so that we may replicate the issue
• The version of minikube.
• The driver you are using.
• The Operation system you are using.
• The output of the "minikube logs"

This will help us isolate the problem further. Thank you!

I too am getting the same issue.
`stderr:
Template parsing error: template: :1:4: executing "" at : error calling index: index of untyped nil

• Restarting existing docker container for "minikube" ...
• Failed to start docker container. "minikube start" may fix it: provision: get ssh host-port: get port 22 for "minikube": docker inspect -f "'{{(index (index .NetworkSettings.Ports "22/tcp") 0).HostPort}}'" minikube: exit status 1

So, it works now! What did I do? The only thing is I remember (after several docker rm and trying again minikube start) is minikube delete then performing again minikube start!

Was facing the same issue after a fresh minikube install. Only a minikube delete did not solve for me as @j75, I did a docker system prune, minikube delete and then minikube start --driver=docker and it worked fine.

I performed a cleanup using "minikube delete" and then started using
"minikube start --driver=docker"
it worked

If anyone runs into this, could they please provide the output of:

• docker inspect minikube
• docker logs minikube

Still trying to reproduce this issue. I tried seeing if https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/issues/8203 was related by forcing docker to start in systemd without waiting for containerd, but still wasn't able to repro the error

[priyawadhwa]

I have a feeling this might be related to https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/issues/8179, since the logs from the failed container provided in this comment https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/issues/8163#issuecomment-635563507 are the same

[medyagh]

this is an issue that cloud code team has faced too, we should provide better solution message before exiting, or provide better logs

[medyagh]

I beleive this happens when minikube tried to create a container, but then docker failed but on a second start there is stuck container, that minikube can not create on top of it.

currently if users specify "--delete-on-failure" as this PR https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/pull/8628 it will fix the problem.

however we could detect that this is not a recover-able state and we should just delete it for them. even if they don't specify this flag.
this would require some extra care or maybe a prompt from the user. to confirm the delete (if they dont have a any interesting data inside the dead container)

The current work-around:

restart docker and ensure it is running
minikube delete
minikube start

this was the solution for me!! thx alot

[priyawadhwa]

Hey @dadav glad it's working for you now -- could you please provide the output of minikube version ?
