Kubernetes 1.20.2 requires conntrack

Hello, I got this problem during installing minikube and found the same issue here, but it's closed and @manusa wrote that he's gonna fix it. Maybe my case is new:)

$ minikube start --vm-driver=none

Hi @Khuzha.

This is not the Minikube repository, but a repository for a GitHub Action that deploy Minikube in your pipeline.

From you comment I guess you're not using this action but trying to start Minikube in your local environment. If that's the case, the solution described in this comment should work for you.

If that's not the case, please provide a link to the repo where you're running the GH action (if it's public). Or at least some more information like the version of manusa/actions-setup-minikube you are using.

hi @Khuzha Use command : sudo apt-get install -y conntrack then following by: sudo -E minikube start --driver=none it worked for me :)

[juanluiscb]

arch linux install:

pacman -S conntrack-tools

and run:

sudo minikube start --vm-driver=none

all ok!

[forging2012]

apt install conntrack

[mfaraz669]

I have tried all ways but same error

[bunny568]

sudo minikube start --vm-driver=none --force

it will work

[viswa2]

After installing the contrack sudo apt-get install -y conntrack sudo minikube start --vm-driver=none --force 😄 minikube v1.30.1 on Ubuntu 22.04 (amd64) ❗ minikube skips various validations when --force is supplied; this may lead to unexpected behavior ✨ Using the none driver based on user configuration

Tried to install crictl as below command, but unfortunately getting as below. sudo apt-get install crictl Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package crictl

Can any one suggest what exactly do i need to install here. I'm using WSL Ubuntu 22.04 (amd64)

[mfaraz669]

Install docker first and then try to install minikube

[viswa2]

Yes, i have installed docker and trying to installing the minikube getting as per the above. docker -v Docker version 20.10.21, build 20.10.21-0ubuntu1~22.04.3

[Jaideep1702]

use sudo minikube start --force

it worked for me

[abhijeet1680]

thanks it works

[viswa2]

Hello @Jaideep1702 Thanks it's works, but whenever WSL ubuntu closes, again it's need to run sudo minikube start --force command. Is it normal behavior or how it is?

🐳 Exiting due to NOT_FOUND_CRI_DOCKERD:

💡 Suggestion:

The none driver with Kubernetes v1.24+ and the docker container-runtime requires cri-dockerd.

Please install cri-dockerd using these instructions:

https://github.com/Mirantis/cri-dockerd

Action : wget https://github.com/Mirantis/cri-dockerd/releases/download/v0.3.9/cri-dockerd_0.3.9.3-0.ubuntu-focal_amd64.deb dpkg -i cri-dockerd_0.3.9.3-0.ubuntu-focal_amd64.deb

🔗 Exiting due to NOT_FOUND_CNI_PLUGINS:

💡 Suggestion:

Please install containernetworking-plugins using these instructions:

https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/faq/#how-do-i-install-containernetworking-plugins-for-none-driver

Action: create a file and run it to install cni-plugin e.g cat plugin.sh CNI_PLUGIN_VERSION="v1.4.0" CNI_PLUGIN_TAR="cni-plugins-linux-amd64-$CNI_PLUGIN_VERSION.tgz" # change arch if not on amd64 CNI_PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR="/opt/cni/bin"
