Kubernetes dashboard: Get https://10.96.0.1:443/version: dial tcp 10.96.0.1:443: i/o timeout

3/30/2019

I have a Kubernetes cluster in vagrant (1.14.0) and installed calico.

I have installed the kubernetes dashboard. When I use kubectl proxy to visit the dashboard:

Error: 'dial tcp 192.168.1.4:8443: connect: connection refused'
Trying to reach: 'https://192.168.1.4:8443/'

Here are my pods (dashboard is restarting frequently):

$ kubectl get pods -n kube-system

logs of the dasbhoard pod:

2019/03/30 14:36:21 Error while initializing connection to Kubernetes apiserver. This most likely means that the cluster is misconfigured (e.g., it has invalid apiserver certificates or service account's configuration) or the --apiserver-host param points to a server that does not exist. Reason: Get https://10.96.0.1:443/version: dial tcp 10.96.0.1:443: i/o timeout
Refer to our FAQ and wiki pages for more information: https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard/wiki/FAQ

I can telnet from both master and nodes to 10.96.0.1:443.

What is configured wrongly? The rest of the cluster seems to work fine, although I see this logs in kubelet:

failed to load Kubelet config file /var/lib/kubelet/config.yaml, error failed to read kubelet config file "/var/lib/kubelet/config.yaml"

kubelet seems to run fine on the master. The cluster was created with this command:

kubeadm init --apiserver-advertise-address="192.168.50.10" --apiserver-cert-extra-sans="192.168.50.10" --node-name k8s-master --pod-network-cidr=192.168.0.0/16

For me the issue was I needed to create a NetworkPolicy that allowed Egress traffic to the kubernetes API

Exclude -- node-name parameter from kubeadm init command

try this command

kubeadm init --apiserver-advertise-address=$(hostname -i) --apiserver-cert-extra-sans="192.168.50.10" --pod-network-cidr=192.168.0.0/16

you should define your hostname in /etc/hosts

#hostname
YOUR_HOSTNAME
#nano /etc/hosts
YOUR_IP HOSTNAME

if you set your hostname in your master but it did not work try

# systemctl stop kubelet
# systemctl stop docker
# iptables --flush
# iptables -tnat --flush
# systemctl start kubelet
# systemctl start docker

and you should install dashboard before join worker node

and disable your firewall

and you can check your free ram.
