Can't delete flannel plugin

4/12/2018

I'm trying to switch network plug-in from flannel to something else just for educational purposes.

The flannel had been installed via:

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/flannel/master/Documentation/kube-flannel.yml

So to remowe it I'm trying to

kubectl delete -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/flannel/master/Documentation/kube-flannel.yml

As a result I've got:

k8s@k8s-master:~$ kubectl delete -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/flannel/master/Documentation/kube-flannel.yml
Error from server (NotFound): error when deleting "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/flannel/master/Documentation/kube-flannel.yml": clusterroles.rbac.authorization.k8s.io "flannel" not found
Error from server (NotFound): error when deleting "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/flannel/master/Documentation/kube-flannel.yml": clusterrolebindings.rbac.authorization.k8s.io "flannel" not found
Error from server (NotFound): error when deleting "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/flannel/master/Documentation/kube-flannel.yml": serviceaccounts "flannel" not found
Error from server (NotFound): error when deleting "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/flannel/master/Documentation/kube-flannel.yml": configmaps "kube-flannel-cfg" not found
error when stopping "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/flannel/master/Documentation/kube-flannel.yml": timed out waiting for the condition

It's strange cause several hours earlier I've made such operations with weave & worked fine.

Solution were to change the sequence of steps, first reinstall kubernetes environment after that redeploy flannel over broken one and only then delete it.

kubeadm reset

systemctl daemon-reload && systemctl restart kubelet

kubeadm init --pod-network-cidr=10.244.0.0/16

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/flannel/master/Documentation/kube-flannel.yml

kubectl delete -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/flannel/master/Documentation/kube-flannel.yml

Note: You may need also manually unload flannel driver which is the vxlan module:

rmmod vxlan
