I recently installed kubernetes on VMware and also configured few pods , while configuring those pods , it automatically used IP of the VMware and configured. I was able to access the application during that time but then recently i rebooted VM and machine which hosts the VM, during this - IP of the VM got changed i guess and now - I am getting below error when using command :
kubectl get pod -n
userX@ubuntu:~$ kubectl get pod -n NameSpaceX
Unable to connect to the server: dial tcp 192.168.214.136:6443: connect: no route to host```
userX@ubuntu:~$ kubectl version

kubectl cluster-info as well as other related commands gives same output. in VMware workstation settings, we are using network adapter which is sharing host IP address setting. We are not sure if it has any impact.
We also tried to add below entry in /etc/hosts , it is not working.
127.0.0.1 localhost \n 192.168.214.136 localhost \n 127.0.1.1 ubuntu
I expect to run the pods back again to access the application.Instead of reinstalling all pods which is time consuming - we are looking for quick workaround so that pods will get back to running state.
Last night I had the exact same error installing Kubernetes using this puppet module: https://forge.puppet.com/puppetlabs/kubernetes
Turns out that it is an incorrect iptables setting in the master that blocks all non-local requests towards the api.
The way I solved it (bruteforce solution) is by
This is what solved the problem in my case.
There is probably a much nicer and cleaner way to do this (i.e. simply change the iptables rules to allow access).
You need to export the admin.conf file as kubeconfig before running the kubectl commands. You may put this as your env variable
export kubeconfig=<path>/admin.conf
after this you should be able to run the kubectl command. I am hoping that your setup of K8S cluster is proper.
The common practice is to copy config file to the home directory
sudo cp /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf ~/.kube/config && sudo chown $(id -u):$(id -g) $HOME/.kube/config
Also, make sure that api-server address is valid.
server: https://<master-node-ip>:6443
If not, you can manually edit it using any text editor.
