I installed minikube successfully on my windows machine and was using it. All of a sudden minikube start command failed to work one day, so I force-deleted .minikube directory and also removed minikube from Hyper-V Manager on Windows.
After this, I am unable to create/start minikube on my windows machine. I can see that a VM is created in Hyper-V manager but minikube is not starting with below error.
minikube start --vm-driver=hyperv
* minikube v1.5.2 on Microsoft Windows 10 Enterprise 10.0.17763 Build 17763
* Tip: Use 'minikube start -p <name>' to create a new cluster, or 'minikube delete' to delete this one.
* Using the running hyperv "minikube" VM ...
* Waiting for the host to be provisioned ...
X minikube is unable to connect to the VM: dial tcp: address fe80::215:5dff:fe01:90b:22: too many colons in address
I came across this link which seems to be fixed long ago. https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/issues/576
Can any one suggest other way to fix this ?
It's trying to append the port to the ip address, but is formatting incorrectly when the IP Address is IPv6 Github Issue. Looks like there have been similar issues in the past and the solution has been to try again on a later version.
If you can force the VM to have an ipv4 address, that may work around this issue (hyper-V settings?)
