I am trying to deploy the automated hyperledger fabric using Kafka brokers environment from the github page https://github.com/xmhubj/fabric-kafka on minikube. When executing the create channel job, I get following error message:

UTC [grpc] Printf -> DEBU 004 grpc: addrConn.resetTransport failed to create client transport: connection error: desc = "transport: Error while dialing dial tcp 10.106.33.24:7050: getsockopt: connection refused"; Reconnecting to {orderer0.ordererorg1:7050 <nil>}
Error: failed to create deliver client: orderer client failed to connect to orderer0.ordererorg1:7050: failed to create new connection: context deadline exceeded

The orderer is running as a service

ordererorg1   orderer0               NodePort    10.106.33.24     <none>        7050:32000/TCP.

If I do:

curl 10.106.33.24:7050

From within the cluster, I get:

curl: (7) Failed to connect to 10.106.33.24 port 7050: Connection refused

Although it is a NodePort connection. Does anybody understand the problem and know how to fix it?

Edit:

$ kubectl get pods
