System error: exec: "deployment": executable file not found in $PATH

Question

I following the example exactly, [http://kubernetes.io/docs/hellonode/,]

after I run [kubectl run hello-node --image=gcr.io/PROJECT_ID/hello-node:v1 --port=8080 deployment "hello-node" created] . the pod doesnot run ok, I get CrashLoopBackOff status.I have no deployment exec,

any comment is appreciated.

Answer 1

after I run [kubectl run hello-node --image=gcr.io/PROJECT_ID/hello-node:v1 --port=8080 deployment "hello-node" created]

Do you mean your run kubectl run hello-node --image=gcr.io/PROJECT_ID/hello-node:v1 --port=8080 deployment "hello-node" created?

If this is the case, then there is no surprise since deployment is not an executable in your PATH.
