Regression: v1.27.1 does not work with k8s version v1.25.2

[mbana]

What Happened?

$ curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/v1.26.1/minikube-linux-amd64
sudo install minikube-linux-amd64 /usr/local/bin/minikube
rm minikube-linux-amd64
$ minikube start

works fine but:

$ curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/latest/minikube-linux-amd64
sudo install minikube-linux-amd64 /usr/local/bin/minikube
rm minikube-linux-amd64
$ minikube version                                                    
minikube version: v1.27.1
commit: fe869b5d4da11ba318eb84a3ac00f336411de7ba

With version v1.27.1 the only way I can get it to start is by using:

$ minikube start --kubernetes-version=v1.24.3

[kevinevans1]

Adding my error too!

@mbana thanks for sharing the temporary fix!

Hello from Docker!
This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.

To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:

1. The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.
2. The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.
   (amd64)
3. The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the
   executable that produces the output you are currently reading.
4. The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it
   to your terminal.

To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with:
$ docker run -it ubuntu bash

Share images, automate workflows, and more with a free Docker ID:
https://hub.docker.com/

Unfortunately, an error has occurred:
timed out waiting for the condition

This error is likely caused by:
- The kubelet is not running
- The kubelet is unhealthy due to a misconfiguration of the node in some way (required cgroups disabled)

If you are on a systemd-powered system, you can try to troubleshoot the error with the following commands:
- 'systemctl status kubelet'
- 'journalctl -xeu kubelet'

Additionally, a control plane component may have crashed or exited when started by the container runtime.
To troubleshoot, list all containers using your preferred container runtimes CLI.
Here is one example how you may list all running Kubernetes containers by using crictl:
- 'crictl --runtime-endpoint unix:///var/run/cri-dockerd.sock ps -a | grep kube | grep -v pause'
Once you have found the failing container, you can inspect its logs with:
- 'crictl --runtime-endpoint unix:///var/run/cri-dockerd.sock logs CONTAINERID'

❌ Exiting due to GUEST_MISSING_CONNTRACK: Sorry, Kubernetes 1.25.2 requires conntrack to be installed in root's path

[afbjorklund]

Seems to be related to the use of LocalStorageCapacityIsolation, which has been removed in later versions.

[afbjorklund]

@kevinevans1 :

Adding my error too!

Please open a new issue.

Seems to be Docker Desktop VM related ?

[mbana]

Another possible workaround, where your root-fs is btrfs is:

$ cat /etc/docker/daemon.json
{
  "storage-driver": "overlay2"
}

Then restart docker, I think, the command is as follows:

$ sudo systemctl restart --now docker && sudo systemctl restart --now docker.socket && sudo systemctl restart --now docker.service

Alternatively just reboot the system.

I also so something similar:

Full Log: https://gist.github.com/mbana/382f94fb4c666c12d56b86837f9b27ed

Anyway, what I wrote here, #15099 (comment), seems to have fixed it for me. It's not ideal.

[medyagh]

this seems to be a kubernetes regression for that version rthat doesnot support setting the storage flag
