I have setup kubernetes in ubuntu 16.04. I am using kube version 1.13.1 and using weave for networking. I have initialized the cluster using :

sudo kubeadm init --token-ttl=0 --apiserver-advertise-address=192.168.88.142

and weave:

kubectl apply -f "https://cloud.weave.works/k8s/net?k8s-version=$(kubectl version | base64 | tr -d '\n')"

All the pods seems to be running fine but coredns always remains in CrashLoopBackOff status. I have read mostly all the solution available for this.

weave-net-npgnc                     2/2     Running            0          13m

I initially started by editing the cordens file and deleting the loop. It resolves the issue but then later I realized that I wasn't able to ping www.google.com from within the container but I was able to ping the ip address of google.com. Thus deleting the loop is not a perfect solution.

Next I tried looking at the /etc/resolv.conf and found below contents:

# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 127.0.1.1
search APSDC.local

Here is the workaround provided on kubernetes page which says that any type IP address like 127.0.0.1 should be avoided. I am not able to understand this line as this file is automatically generated. How can make changes to the file so that coredns can work fine. Belo is the logs of coredns:

$ kubectl logs coredns-86c58d9df4-h5plc -n kube-system

Can anyone please point me to right direction in order to resolve this issue. Please help. Thanks
