Create kubernetes EC2 cluster on aws using kops

4/18/2020

I am trying to setup a kubernetes cluster on AWS with EC2 instances; it is supposed to be pretty straight forward.

Initially started with kubeadm and I ran into problems Setup Kubernetes (version 1.18) cluster on AWS EC2

There was a suggestion to use kops and I started with kops; I am running into problems again

I need to create kops create secret with the ssh public key The key has been generated and available in /home/ubuntu/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

however I get the following error

ubuntu@ip-10-0-1-8:~$ kops create secret --name newk8.shivag.io sshpublickey ubuntu -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub --state s3://shivag.kube-kops-state --v=3

error reading SSH public key /home/ubuntu/.ssh/id_rsa.pub: open /home/ubuntu/.ssh/id_rsa.pub: permission denied

Any help will be appreciated

I used snap to install kops and this installed the 1.17 beta version

I removed this and installed 1.16.0 and everything was smooth

I have the Full instructions to install Kubernetes Cluster
