"kubeadm init" fails on setting up Highly Available clusters

11/20/2019

I try to setup a haproxy'd multi-master node setup for Kubernetes, as described in [1]. My network configurations are:

haproxy = 192.168.1.213
master0|1|2 = 192.168.1.210|211|212
worker0|1|2 = 192.168.1.220|221|222 (not interesting at this point)

all hosts are able to connect to each other (DNS is resolved for each node). Each node is running Ubuntu 18.04.3 (LTS). Docker is installed as

docker.io/bionic-updates,bionic-security,now 18.09.7-0ubuntu1~18.04.4 amd64 [installed]

Kubernetes packages currently installed are

kubeadm/kubernetes-xenial,now 1.16.3-00 amd64 [installed]
kubectl/kubernetes-xenial,now 1.16.3-00 amd64 [installed]
kubelet/kubernetes-xenial,now 1.16.3-00 amd64 [installed,automatic]
kubernetes-cni/kubernetes-xenial,now 0.7.5-00 amd64 [installed,automatic]

using an additional repository as described in [2] (i'm aware that i've installed bionic on my VMs, but the "newest" repo available is still xenial).

My haproxy is installed as haproxy/bionic,now 2.0.9-1ppa1~bionic amd64 [installed] from [3] repository.

    server  master2 192.168.1.212:6443 check fall 3 rise 2

While trying to setup my first control plane, running kubeadm init --control-plane-endpoint "haproxy.my.lan:6443" --upload-certs -v=6 as described in [4] results in this error:

Error writing Crisocket information for the control-plane node

full log in [5]. I'm pretty lost, if there's a mistake in my haproxy configuration or if there might be some fault in docker or kubernetes itself.

My /etc/docker/daemon.json looks like this:

{
  "exec-opts": ["native.cgroupdriver=systemd"],
  "log-driver": "json-file",
  "log-opts": {
    "max-size": "100m"
  },
  "storage-driver": "overlay2"
}

While not being able to find a decent solution and created an issue in the original "kubeadm" project at github, see here: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubeadm/issues/1930 .

Since the "triage" suggested in the issue was not feasable (Ubuntu is pretty much "set") for me, I ended in setting up another Docker distribution, as described here: https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/ubuntu/ , purging installed distribution before starting the new setup.

While running Docker (Community) v19.03.5 through kubeadm v1.16.3 throws the following warning:

[WARNING SystemVerification]: this Docker version is not on the list of validated versions: 19.03.5. Latest validated version: 18.09

the results are pretty fine, I managed to setup my ha cluster, as described in the original documentation.

So, this can be considered as a workaround, NOT as a solution to my original issue!
