Minikube doesn't start on Mac with VPN

1/3/2020

I am trying to start a Minikube cluster locally on Mac0S with Cisco AnyConnectVPN

minikube start --vm-driver=virtualbox

I keep getting the following error:

enter image description here

Strangely

minikube ssh

is working :o

Is there a way I could turn this ssh verification off for minikube start?

Minikube needs to connect to the minikube vm to be able to start and stop it correctly and do most of the minikube <cmd> commands, e.g. minikube addons list. So you are not able to start the vm correctly if minikube can't connect.

So you can:

  • use hyperkit as a vm driver
  • try to change the network configuration of the vm in virtualbox.
