How to get to work Dashboard and Helm in DO K8s cluster?

Posted on October 3, 2018

Hello. I’ve created new k8s cluster with DigitalOcean. And there are few things I cannot figure out how to solve:

  1. kubectl shows that Dashboard pod is deployed, its service is ready to serve. With kubeclt proxy I managed to try to load dashboard via browser:
Error: 'dial tcp 10.244.5.3:8443: i/o timeout'
Trying to reach: 'https://10.244.5.3:8443/'
  1. With helm init I tried to install helm to cluster. And after that I can see that tiller-deploy pod is running. But with helm version I’ve got errror:
Client: &version.Version{SemVer:"v2.11.0", GitCommit:"2e55dbe1fdb5fdb96b75ff144a339489417b146b", GitTreeState:"clean"}
Error: forwarding ports: error upgrading connection: error dialing backend: dial tcp 10.131.80.172:10250: connect: no route to host

Same error with helm install stable/nginx-ingress

Looks like in both cases I cannot connect to cluster private network IPs. Any ideas how to solve it? Thanks in advance.

Hey there,

It looks like you (and the others reporting the issue in the comments) may have ran into an issue with the Kubernetes master node not being properly assigned to your private network.

We’re working to resolve this now.

It doesn’t work so far, in kubctl proxy I see:

and no dashboard in browser. I’ll create new cluster and try again.

We’ve resolved the issue that was impacting Kubernetes clusters in regions that weren’t NYC1 and FRA1- everything should be behaving as expected. If you’re still experiencing any issues, please feel free to open up a support ticket so that we can investigate!
