The Ingress Controller is not created when running the "minikube addons enable ingress"

Question

I have minikube installed on Windows10, and I'm trying to work with Ingress Controller

I'm doing:

$ minikube addons enable ingress

* After the addon is enabled, please run "minikube tunnel" and your ingress resources would be available at "127.0.0.1"
  - Using image docker.io/jettech/kube-webhook-certgen:v1.5.1
  - Using image k8s.gcr.io/ingress-nginx/controller:v0.44.0
  - Using image docker.io/jettech/kube-webhook-certgen:v1.5.1
* Verifying ingress addon...
* The 'ingress' addon is enabled

Note: I ran minikube tunnel after the addon was enabled

But can't see the nginx controller anywhere:

$ kubectl get pods -n kube-system

$ kubectl get pods

No resources found in default namespace.

Answer 1

As already discussed in the comments the Ingress Controller will be created in the ingress-nginx namespace instead of the kube-system namespace. Other than that the rest of the tutorial should work as expected.
