Kubernetes dashboard (web UI) not working

6/10/2018

I have just started a new Kubernetes 1.8.0 environment using minikube (0.27) on Windows 10.

I followed this steps but it didn't work: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/access-application-cluster/web-ui-dashboard/

When I list pods this is the result:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>kubectl get pods --all-namespaces    
NAMESPACE     NAME                                    READY     STATUS             RESTARTS   AGE

As you can see, I have 2 kubernets-dashboard pods now, one of then is running and the other one is CrashLookBackOff.

When I try to run minikube dashboard this is the result:

"Waiting, endpoint for service is not ready yet..."

I have tried to remove kubernetes-dashboard-869db7f6b4-ddlmq pod:

kubectl delete pod kubernetes-dashboard-869db7f6b4-ddlmq

This is the result:

"Error from server (NotFound): pods "kubernetes-dashboard-869db7f6b4-ddlmq" not found"

"Error from server (NotFound): pods "kubernetes-dashboard-869db7f6b4-ddlmq" not found"

You failed to delete the pod due to the lack of namespace (add -n kube-system). And it should be 1 dashboard pod if no modification's applied. If it still fails to run minikube dashboard after you delete the abnormal pod, more logs should be provided.
