chectl server:deploy --installer operator -p minikube -n eclipse-cheop

Hi @fredcsfaria !
I'm not able to reproduce your issue... I can deploy 7.30.1 normally in my local Windows 10.
I've installed minikube 1.20.0 using hyperv driver.

[fredcsfaria]

Hello @flacatus

I am using the stack Minikube, Windows 7 and Virtual Box. I had already Che running before in that configuration using early releases of Minikube/Kubectl.

[flacatus]

@fredcsfaria Can you try to run first minikube addons enable ingress and then install che, please?

[fredcsfaria]

@flacatus Sure.

[flacatus]

Do you have powershell in W7? Can u try running as administrator?

[fredcsfaria]

Sure. Power Shell as admin:

@flacatus
did you use the same v1.20.0 minikube version ?

@fredcsfaria
What does this print? Accordingly to source code it fails on parsing the following output.
minikube addons list -o json

[fredcsfaria]

@tolusha
would the issue to be due to the message "Enable colors error" in the first line of output ? I dont know this parameter.
ps:Sorry, i had closed the issue by mistake

[tolusha]

@fredcsfaria
yes, I guess that's the reason.

@flacatus
Are you aware how to configure a terminal to avoid such a message ?

[tolusha]

I close this issue since it is not related to chectl it self.
