Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST?: Bug

Please provide the following details:

Environment:

Minikube version: 0.22.0

OS: macOS 10.12.6
VM Driver: hyperkit
ISO version: minikube-v0.23.3.iso
Install tools:
Others:

What happened:

[... snip a ton of these errors...]

What you expected to happen:
The cluster starts normally.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):
See above command

Output of minikube logs (if applicable):

Anything else do we need to know:
I built docker-machine-driver-hyperkit myself, but got the minikube binary from the latest official release here on Github. If there's a more official place to get docker-machine-driver-hyperkit, I'll try using that one.

r2d4 · 2017-09-07T20:09:23Z

Can you see if there are any entries in the "/var/db/dhcpd_leases file?

zhaytee · 2017-09-08T06:02:28Z

@r2d4 Yep, looks like there are two entries. I've since gone back to running minikube using virtualbox, which may be relevant to its contents:

$ cat /var/db/dhcpd_leases

Hey folks. I rebuilt docker-machine-driver-hyperkit from the git repo at tag v0.22.0, deleted ~/.minikube, deleted /var/db/dhcpd_leases, and tried to create a fresh cluster using minikube 0.22.0: minikube start --vm-driver hyperkit -v 10

First attempt, I get this curious error (curious because my laptop has over 50GB free; I suspect the error is referring to something else):

So I try the same command again, and it gets past that point. But now I get a different error, a permissions issue with getting ssh going (it can't read id_rsa because it's owned by root?):

I had installed docker-machine-driver-hyperkit using the Makefile entry install-hyperkit-driver, which sets the owner to root:wheel and sets the setuid bit via chmod u+s.

Is there an obvious path to victory here? Wondering what I'm missing.

Thank you!

antoineco · 2017-11-14T22:16:10Z

edit: can't reproduce anymore after wiping ~/.minikubeand /var/db/dhcpd_leases.

I have the same error message as the OP as soon as I try to restart a stopped minikube VM after a macOS reboot (and only in that case):

Temporary Error: Could not find an IP address for <mac_addr>.

It should be mentioned that <mac_addr> is different after every invocation of minikube start.

antoineco · 2017-11-21T10:42:35Z

Did you forget to set the setuid flag on the docker-machine-driver-hyperkit binary cher Monsieur Nerden? (sudo chmod u+s out/docker-machine-driver-hyperkit)

kenden · 2017-11-21T11:07:09Z

@antoineco Indeed, merci gamin. When replacing my steps:

$ make out/docker-machine-driver-hyperkit  # build docker-machine-driver-hyperkit
$ export PATH=$PATH:/Users/myuser/dev/go/src/k8s.io/minikube/out/

by:

$ make install-hyperkit-driver

then it works fine, and without sudo.

It also works fine using the official version v0.23.0.

dlorenc · 2017-11-21T16:17:01Z

Thanks for the update! We should add an error that helps track down when you forget to set setuid.

dlorenc · 2017-12-01T05:08:38Z

This should be fixed with #2215

antoineco · 2017-12-01T06:43:09Z

@dlorenc the original issue was not about permissions, rather about this error:

Temporary Error: Could not find an IP address for <mac_addr>

Can we please reopen?

lightsofapollo · 2017-12-04T18:03:26Z

Experiencing this as well... Only occurred after starting an initially working cluster then restarting my computer.

lightsofapollo · 2017-12-04T18:05:10Z

After running minikube delete then minikube start --vm-driver hyperkit I am back into a working state.

joshuarubin · 2017-12-11T19:33:24Z

FWIW, I tried making a new machine (which starts up fine), stopping it, copying the old machine's minikube.rawdisk, id_rsa and id_rsa.pub files to the new one. After doing this, the new machine reports the same Error starting host: Error starting stopped host: IP address never found in dhcp leases file Temporary Error: Could not find an IP address for <mac_address> when started.

Also, of note, I don't see any docker-machine being started, just docker-machine-driver-hyperkit with no arguments.

ntfrnzn · 2017-12-21T18:13:46Z

I've just run into this issue, also (to quote above)

Only occurred after starting an initially working cluster then restarting my computer.

I observe (a) stopping and restarting a hyperkit-based minikube machine regenerates the mac address (b) after restarting the osx host, the hyperkit-based minikube machine will not update /var/db/dhcpd_leases at all.

It seems that a hyperkit-base minikube will not survive a host reboot, and that if you reboot, you must minikube delete and rebuild. At least with v0.24.1

antoineco · 2017-12-21T18:16:37Z

I observed minikube survives OS restarts if it is shut down with minikube stop. Have you tried that?

dfang · 2017-12-25T03:28:55Z

same issue,

minikube start alwasy failed with error message:

minikube start only works after minikube delete ....

any updates ?

danielcoman · 2018-01-04T10:41:21Z

I am experiencing the same issue after an unexpected shutdown.
Error starting host: Error starting stopped host: IP address never found in dhcp leases file Temporary Error: Could not find an IP address for 36:20:2:4d:48:32
Cleared /var/db/dhcpd_leases an reinstalled Hyperkit as stated here: https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/blob/master/docs/drivers.md

alanbrent · 2018-01-09T18:52:14Z

~~The problem is~~ In my experience, this problem has been that the hyperkit.pid file (e.g. ~/.minikube/machines/minikube/hyperkit.pid) is taken as gospel, and the PID recorded in the file is not validated as a running hyperkit process. This is why the problem shows up when you e.g. reboot without first stopping minikube. When I get a little bit of time, I'm planning to take a deeper dive into the source. My first superficial search seems to indicate that the bug is actually in upstream Moby, but I don't have much confidence in that guess.

UPDATE: This means that the manual fix/workaround would be to simply delete the hyperkit.pid file and try starting again.

jwandrews · 2018-01-11T18:59:33Z

@dlorenc do you think this issue is related to #2416 ? if so, #2417 should resolve this issue.

It seems like on every stop/start cycle, the hyperkit driver generates a new mac address for the vm. in which case, i believe the issues are related.

huguesalary · 2018-01-11T19:16:33Z

@jwandrews seems to me that if #2417 did fix this issue, it only would as a side effect of re-assigning the same ip address. If, for example, /var/db/dhcpd_leases gets deleted, this bug (#1926) will happen again.

jwandrews · 2018-01-11T19:18:39Z

@huguesalary ahhh good to know. thanks

alanbrent · 2018-01-31T23:42:55Z

BTW, it appears that the specific failure case I mentioned in #1926 (comment) is still a problem in the latest release.

xorange · 2018-10-04T07:18:13Z

I'm also experiencing the same problem and came from #2430

OS: MacOS 10.13.6 High Sierra
ISO: minikube-v0.29.0
Using Docker for Mac, which has hyperkit -h but minicube complained about lacking hyperkit.
I then installed hyperkit with curl.
Run minikube start --vm-driver=hyperkit for the first time and had this same error:

Error starting host: Error creating host: Error creating machine: Error in driver during machine creation: IP address never found in dhcp leases file Temporary Error: Could not find an IP address for 4a:43:3c:a8:6a:a6

I found ~/.minicube/machine/minicube/hyperkit.pid and rm it, still cannot start.
I'm using VPN from China and shut it, still cannot start.

now I'm having this error message:

Error starting host: Temporary Error: Error configuring auth on host: OS type not recognized.

content of my /var/db/dhcpd_release:

$ cat /var/db/dhcpd_leases

...

I removed this section, still cannot start

I believe this is fixed with the latest hyperkit driver, released with v0.34.0. If you are running into this, please try running:

curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/latest/docker-machine-driver-hyperkit && sudo install -o root -g wheel -m 4755 docker-machine-driver-hyperkit /usr/local/bin/

Then run minikube delete && minikube start --vm-driver=hyperkit to recreate your VM.

If this is still broken, please re-open the bug, and include the output of:

ls -la $(which docker-machine-driver-hyperkit)

Thanks!

I still have the same issue

$ ls -la $(which docker-machine-driver-hyperkit)
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root wheel 27779836 Mar 12 17:51 /usr/local/bin/docker-machine-driver-hyperkit

As I found out the issue is related to Cisco AnyConnect client. When I turn off corporate VPN the error goes away.

Anecdotal, but these errors seem to occur when resources (memory, disk) are underallocated/unavailable. The defaults (CPUs=2, Memory=2048MB, Disk=20000MB) work though.

I read all the above comments. Tried below steps,

ls -la $(which docker-machine-driver-hyperkit) -rwsr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11314532 Nov 21 10:41 /usr/local/bin/docker-machine-driver-hyperkit

Also ran,
minikube delete && minikube start --vm-driver=hyperkit
minikube start --disk-size 35g --memory 8192 --vm-driver hyperkit

I still get the same error and I am not connected to VPN too.
