kubectl create secret not working, but same with yaml works

[gireeshp]

This is the same issue raised here in the kubernetes website repo.

I'm following this documentation. Secret gets created when tried using yaml, but not using "kubectl create secret" command.

Thought this is the right forum to raise this issue.

/assign
It's because when using kubectl create secret tls nginxsecret --key /tmp/nginx.key --cert /tmp/nginx.crt, it creats Data with :

Data
====
tls.crt:  1143 bytes
tls.key:  1704 bytes

But when using yaml we defines the data:

Data
====
nginx.crt:  1143 bytes
nginx.key:  1704 bytes

Which would lead no such file or directory error.
