Thanks a lot venkat for uploading this video. Always watch your video immediately when you upload it and like it even before completely watching the complete video.

[@justmeandopensource]

Ahh.. Thanks. Much appreciated.

Awesome guide bro. Stuck with minikube "docker" driver and couldn't connect to kubernetes. It gave me only local ip 127.0... for minikube. Didn't find a solution. Had do re-install minikub using virtualbox driver. Now it works like a charm. Thank you!

Hi Alex, thanks for watching. Cheers.

10:32: The 'funny' percent sign (%) comes from zsh, it adds it to identify an output not ending with a newline. Your "; echo" trick works for that as it adds a newline.

[@justmeandopensource]

Yeah, I know. Thanks for watching.

Awesome, many thanks for sharing this solution.

Note, on MacOS + Docker desktop, I had to update the kube config file's 'server' setting to point to the IP address (port 8443) of the Minikube container. Once the secret was updated in Jenkins, I switched it back to default. To get the Minikube ip: `echo "$(docker inspect -f '{{range.NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' minikube):8443"` Also, restarting Minikube wiped out my kube config so I made a backup.

[@sureshkaviraj9206]

Thanks Keith. this helped me

[@allkickstarted6793]

Thanks mate, this saved me.. as I am too working on Mac.. this saved me..

[@mehdibr1215]

hello mate great tutorial I was wondering how i can get jenkins to connect in the same network as minikube when my jenkins is connected locally and thanks!

[@Rakesh-fc1wr]

Hi Venkat . Can help me out to take backup of etcd with a cronjob object ?

[@sadiksha_dahal7261]

I am unable to select the kube config file through jenkins gui. The .kube directory and config file exists as I have accessed them via terminal.

[@yamateknowledge]

Great!!! Very nice tutorial, I'm getting error: Error reading service account token from: ... Can you help me?

[@kavinkumaran]

Hi, Thanks for the video I have an issue in Jenkins if I triggered the pipeline the pods are creating and terminating continuously.

[@justmeandopensource]

Most probably you got the pod template wrong in the cloud configuration. Please re-check it. Its easy to make mistake or miss something there.

[@EdwardPike]

Instead of restarting, could you have connected jenkins to the minikube network using something like "docker network connect minikube 23c1ca1d1bcf"? I tried but the test connection still failed but I'm not sure why.

[@EdwardPike]

I also tried to figure out how assign minikube api server with my local machines ip address instead of 127... I already had jenkins talking to a local KIND cluster and I was able to assign local host IP to its api server. I did not want to rebuild Jenkins just to join minikube's Docker network. Nothing is working yet.

[@stevesteel1466]

Is there any ci and CD video with Jenkins in kubernetes which is done by you.

[@justmeandopensource]

Anything to do with Jenkins and Kubernetes will be in this playlist kzbin.info/aero/PL34sAs7_26wOuDEArkiGHjWtitsLsxGCL Pipeline related videos are these two Kube 49 & Kube 49.1 Cheers

Hi Venkat, following your video can you please make a video regarding kubernetes authentication and authorization using keycloak and how to configure kubeconfig file

Bro post changing crt on config file i am not able to access minikube i am getting below error ...plz suggest me kubectl cluster-info error: error loading config file "/Users/cecily/.kube/config": yaml: line 5: mapping values are not allowed in this context

[@justmeandopensource]

Hi, thanks for watching. It must be an indentation error or something. Do you have a backup of previous kubeconfig? Try "minikube update-context" and that will regenerate the kubeconfig file and then you can start editing again.

[@stevesteel1466]

I think it is indentation error. Did you try to revert the file and recheck whether config is working. If it is working then there error in process of conversion.

[@justmeandopensource]

[@MrCiccioTv]

you could have avoided deleting jenkins container and just use docker network connect minikube jenkins rather than deleting jenkins and reinstalling it to resolve the timeout and connectivity between containers!!!
