Hi! I’m new on kubernetes and I’m having a problem with the minikube service [service] --url , when I run it, the terminal shows me this message:

PS C:\Users\Me kubectl create deployment hello-minikube --image=<http://k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:latest|k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:latest>
deployment.apps/hello-minikube created

PS C:\Users\Me kubectl expose deployment hello-minikube --type=NodePort --port=8080
service/hello-minikube exposed

PS C:\Users\Me minikube service hello-minikube --url
<http://127.0.0.1:64635>
❗  Because you are using the Docker driver on windows, the terminal needs to be open to run it.

When I paste the url to my web browser, I get an ERR_CONNECTION_RESET error.

Here is the output of command minikube service list :

|-------------|----------------|--------------|---------------------------|
|  NAMESPACE  |      NAME      | TARGET PORT  |            URL            |
|-------------|----------------|--------------|---------------------------|
| default     | hello-minikube |         8080 | <http://192.168.49.2:30781> |
| default     | kubernetes     | No node port |
| kube-system | kube-dns       | No node port |
|-------------|----------------|--------------|---------------------------|

I ran ps | grep docker in order to list the Docker’s processes that I have running now (if may it helps). This is the output:

    109      10    22096      11232       0,17  10392   1 docker

I’m running minikube on Windows 10 Pro.

Thanks for your help!

PD: After research about this on Google, I saw several people that were having this problem, so I tried to do what they did to solve it, but it didn’t worked. Here are things I did and didn’t worked:

  1. Run Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V -All, reset my computer, and minikube config set driver hyperv. After that run minikube delete and minikube start . It didn’t worked because it seems to be that minikube can’t use that hyper-visor (I don’t know why). I ran minikube config set driver docker in order to restore the default value of the driver.
  2. Run kubectl port-forward service/hello-minikube 7080:8080. The terminal shouts me this error: error: unable to forward port because pod is not running. Current status=Pending.
  3. Run minikube config set memory 6273 (the max value of my docker installation), and minikube config cpus 4. But the containers were not created, so I set minikube config set memory 2048 and minikube set cpus 2 in order to set the default values and it worked again (but I still having my problem).

Solved: My problem was that I having the ERR_CONNECTION_RESET error. The reason was in the first script

kubectl create deployment hello-minikube --image=<http://k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:latest|k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:latest> [FAIL]

kubectl create deployment hello-minikube --image=<http://k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:1.4|k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:1.4> [OK]

With this change, all works.

BUT, I still have that message when I run +minikube service hello-minikube --url. It’s not a big problem for now, but I would like to solve it.

Thank y’all for your time :sweat_smile:
