Issue2 how to change the default port for selenium
I would like to change the default port for selenium in moon as my 8080 and 4444 port are already occupied.
I would like to use some other port for moon ui and /wd/hub
I assume ,this probably will be accessible from that linux machine itself(I can't check directly on that machine) as it is pointed to localhost in /etc/host. but I dont know how to make it accessible from other places (facing issues no 2 mentioned in this post) like from our laptops for people working on this project .
Please help

Can't run kubectl in docker container from a host machine installed Minikube "The connection to the server 127.0.0.1:32768 was refused"

I want to have a container that can access and run kubectl command on my host machine. Here is what I have:
I have installed Kubernetes and Minikube on my host machine.
I used this docker container: helm-kubectl link
This is the command I run my docker:
docker run -it -v ~/.kube:/root/.kube -v ~/.minikube:/Users/xxxx/.minikube dtzar/helm-kubectl
Inside the container, when I checked the cluster, I can see the context has loaded my minikube, However, I can't run another kubectl command due to the reason "The connection to the server 127.0.0.1:32768 was refused - did you specify the right host or port?".
bash-5.0# kubectl config get-contexts
CURRENT NAME CLUSTER AUTHINFO NAMESPACE
docker-desktop docker-desktop docker-desktop
docker-for-desktop docker-desktop docker-desktop
* minikube minikube minikube
bash-5.0# kubectl get all
The connection to the server 127.0.0.1:32768 was refused - did you specify the right host or port?
I have checked my Kubenetes config at ~/.kube and the port is 32768.
- cluster:
certificate-authority: /Users/xxx/.minikube/ca.crt
server: https://127.0.0.1:32768
name: minikube
I have tried port -p 32768 or --expose 32768 but no luck. So anyone can help this?
Thanks zerkms! It works with --network host

I went to all those jira specified in error log but of no use. Most of those doesn't talk about issue within Amazon EC2 ubuntu 18.04 .
Questions:
how do I enable VT-X/AMD-v in BIOS in logged in EC2 instance which is ubuntu 18.04? Is there any command I can try? note: I don't have access to go to AWS EC2 instance GUI.
is AWS EC2 Ubuntu 18 instance compatible with virtualbox 5 or 6 to start minikube ?
Questions: how do I enable VT-X/AMD-v in BIOS in logged in EC2 instance which is ubuntu 18.04? Is there any command I can try? note: I don't have access to go to AWS EC2 instance GUI.
You don't, EC2 is a virtual server and You have no access to the BIOS.
To use Minikube on EC2 you need to start it without vm driver so just execute $ minikube start --vm-driver=none. This is described here if you insist on using Minikube.
Instead of installing Minikube I would recommend using kubeadm and setting single control-plane cluster with kubeadm.

Permission denied when starting Minikube on macOS

I am trying to start minikube cluster on my macOS but i get always "Permission denied"
(base) MacBook-Pro-de-..:desktop ..$ minikube start
-bash: /usr/local/bin/minikube: Permission denied
What i should do ?
Execute following commands to add permissions to files:
$ chmod ugo+rwx ~/.kube/config
$ sudo chown -R $USER ~/.kube
$ chmod +x your-minikube-localization
Configure proxy:
export no_proxy=$no_proxy,$(minikube ip)
export NO_PROXY=$no_proxy,$(minikube ip)
Then run minikube command taking proxy under consideration (IPs set below are just example):
$ minikube start --alsologtostderr --kubernetes-version v1.13.1 --docker-env HTTP_PROXY=http://10.0.2.2:1087 --docker-env HTTPS_PROXY=http://10.0.2.2:1087 --docker-env NO_PROXY=10.0.2.2,192.168.99.100
$ minikube start --alsologtostderr --kubernetes-version v1.13.2 --docker-env HTTP_PROXY=http://10.0.2.2:3128 --docker-env HTTPS_PROXY=http://10.0.2.2:3128 --docker-env NO_PROXY=10.0.2.2,192.168.99.100
In this case proxy configuration:
HTTP_PROXY=http://127.0.0.1:3128
Please must remember to add your minikube IP to NO_PROXY.
Similar problems you can find here: file-permission, kubeconfig.
I got now this Error:

minikube/kubectl, not running locally in Win10-pro-64-bit-laptop

GitHub issue link :
https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/issues/1994
Docker on Windows installed already, docker is running fine and the containers are running fine.
Docker stopped and made running as well , for running K8s setup. Both scenarios, same status- minikube did not start.
I installed Google Cloud SDK and then started minikube/kubectl for setting K8S, FYI.
Hyper-V was running all along these setup, in my laptop.
Trying to run K8S locally on my laptop using {kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/minikube/} and observed the issues below.
Started kubectl cluster-info.
C:>kubectl cluster-info
Kubernetes master is running at https://192.168.99.100:8443
and then exited after sometime.
minikube version command was run.
Output is as follows :
C:>minikube-windows-amd64 version
minikube version: v0.21.0
minikube start command was run.
Output is as follows :
C:>minikube-windows-amd64 start

I then ran kubectl cluster-info dump. Output is as follows :

Then, I ran status of minikube. Output is as follows :
C:>minikube-windows-amd64 status
minikube: Saved
localkube:
kubectl:
Minikube on Windows uses VirtualBox per default and fails to create your virtual machine because Hyper-V disables VT-x access for other hypervisors. You need to either configure minikube to use Hyper-V or disable Hyper-V and run minikube start again.
