This could be caused by the image used failed to include the coreutils package.
We need to use a different image if so.

Yes we should use the image where printenv command is used like busybox instead of gcr.io/google-samples/hello-app:2.0

@amitgitz can you provide the yaml file you created?

pod.yaml

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: envar-demo
  labels:
    purpose: demonstrate-envars
spec:
  containers:
  - name: envar-demo-container
    image: gcr.io/google-samples/hello-app:2.0
    env:
    - name: DEMO_GREETING
      value: "Hello from the environment"
    - name: DEMO_FAREWELL
      value: "Such a sweet sorrow"

@amitgitz yes the image is not correctly used.
Here we can use different image like nginx:1.21.6 putting rest yaml as it is will work perfectly.
