minikube and how to debug api server error

1/9/2019

I dont get what is going on with minikube. Below are the steps I undertook to fix the problem with a stopped apiserver.
1) I dont know why the api server stopped. How do I debug? this folder is empty:

 --> EMPTY ~/.minikube/logs/

2) After stop I start again and minikube says all is well. I do a status check and I get apiserver: Error. So...no logs..how do I debug?

3) And finally what would cause and apiserver error?

Thanks

~$ minikube status

kubelet: Running
apiserver: Stopped
kubectl: Correctly Configured: pointing to minikube-vm at 192.168.99.100~$
