Kubernetes (Minikube) external ip does not work

Tags:

I am new to Kubernetes and i have been browsing looking and reading why my external ip is not resolving.

I am running minikube on a ubuntu 16.04 distro.

In the services overview of the dashboard i have this

    my-nginx | run: my-nginx | 10.0.0.11 | my-nginx:80 TCP my-nginx:32431 | TCP 192.168.42.71:80 

When i do an http get at http://192.168.42.165:32431/ i get the nginx page.

The configuration of the service is as follows

    # Please edit the object below. Lines beginning with a '#' will be ignored,
    # and an empty file will abort the edit. If an error occurs         while saving this file will be
    # reopened with the relevant failures.

How do you get external IP address in minikube?

minikube tunnel runs as a process, creating a network route on the host to the service CIDR of the cluster using the cluster's IP address as a gateway. The tunnel command exposes the external IP directly to any program running on the host operating system. Password: Status: machine: minikube pid: 39087 route: 10.96.

Can I access cluster IP Kubernetes from outside?

You have several options for connecting to nodes, pods and services from outside the cluster: Access services through public IPs. Use a service with type NodePort or LoadBalancer to make the service reachable outside the cluster. See the services and kubectl expose documentation.

Does minikube change IP?

There are times that minikube IP changes. kubectl: Misconfigured: pointing to stale minikube-vm.

Minikube doesn't support LoadBalancer services, so the service will never get an external IP.

But you can access the service anyway with its external port.

You can get the IP and PORT by running:

minikube service <service_name>
