None driver error on minikube 1.11.0 #8361

staticdev · 2020-06-02T20:24:34Z

Since first versions of minikube I had a bad experience with driver none, and a would really like to get it working without VMs. Even using KVM2 I think it wastes resources and have poor performance.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

minikube start --vm-drive=none

Full output of failed command:

Sorry you got bitten by the systemd vs the world (and juju) bug #6391, as triggered by sudo...

Have you tried the "docker" driver ? There is no VM involved with that one, if that is your concern

staticdev · 2020-06-02T20:30:13Z

@afbjorklund I saw that in the issue but it is closed. Should it be a Won't fix?

I just tried docker driver:

$ sudo minikube start --driver=docker
😄  minikube v1.11.0 on Ubuntu 20.04
✨  Using the docker driver based on user configuration
🛑  The "docker" driver should not be used with root privileges.
💡  If you are running minikube within a VM, consider using --driver=none:
📘    https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/reference/drivers/none/

The user experience here (regarding the messages) is not so good since I just tried driver=none.

It also did not work out-of-the-box without root:

$ minikube start --driver=docker
😄  minikube v1.11.0 on Ubuntu 20.04

afbjorklund · 2020-06-02T20:49:04Z

The issue was closed because there is a workaround and upstream ticket for the library (juju/mutex)
Supposedly it could also be fixed by switching the library used, but that's a bigger change.

There was some discussion about the default minikube permissions and root recently: #8257
Basically minikube assumes a regular laptop installation where user is part of docker group

staticdev · 2020-06-02T20:51:02Z

I also tried juju instalation of kubeadm in the past. My experience was also a bit frustrated. I will take a look on #8257. I really don't think requiring root for minikube is a big deal, since any node of kubeadm would require that.

afbjorklund · 2020-06-02T20:53:15Z

I'm not sure if juju-the-installer is related to the mutex library, by more than name association.

Basically systemd introduced a breaking change, and this particular library failed to adapt to it.

staticdev · 2020-06-02T20:54:54Z

@afbjorklund do you have a link for this juju-mutex issue?

afbjorklund · 2020-06-02T20:56:32Z

@afbjorklund do you have a link for this juju-mutex issue?

juju/mutex#7

But the last commit is from Jun 2018, whereas the systemd breakage is from Feb 2019

Since first versions of minikube I had a bad experience with driver none, and a would really like to get it working without VMs. Even using KVM2 I think it wastes resources and have poor performance.

There also seems to be a mismatch of expectations, about what minikube is actually doing...
It is creating a Kubernetes cluster, and configuring your console (or desktop) to talk to it.

So if all you want to do is to run locally on the master node as root, maybe minikube is overkill ?
You could just run kubeadm directly (this is what "none" does), and remove the node taint.

staticdev · 2020-06-02T21:04:55Z

@afbjorklund last commit of this dependency on June 2018. I saw that a Juju member responded the issue but is waiting for response. Maybe that is why they did not fix it yet.

I always liked minikube and what it does. And I tried to make my teams use it for running locally applications that would run on kubernetes without having to know interns of how to install kubeadm. minikube improved a lot but this none driver was always a stone in my shoe.

afbjorklund · 2020-06-02T21:10:08Z

minikube improved a lot but this none driver was always a stone in my shoe.

The none driver is intended for running it on an existing VM of your choice, like in CI.

It's always been a bit flawed. Requiring root and binding publically are just two issues.

#3760

#4313

staticdev · 2020-06-02T21:26:38Z

@afbjorklund indeed this new docker option is more appropriate for my intent. Should it work without this sudo usermod -aG docker $USER && newgrp docker?

medyagh · 2020-06-02T23:06:30Z

@staticdev I also recommend the docker driver. As long as you have docker installed by your distro you should be good to go.
More info:
https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/drivers/docker/

None driver is not our recommended driver and there is warning in minikube to not use it unless it inside a ci VM, docker driver can be replaced with none driver for all use cases and it supports more features such as multi node and loadbalancer

And yes we don't allow running as root for security reasons.

I believe the distro's package manager will take care of the user groups ( Ubuntu takes care of it ) but if your distro doesn't do that you might need to add the user to the group

I recommend checkout docker docs how to install docker in your distro

staticdev · 2020-06-03T01:23:41Z

@medyagh Nice. I am using Ubuntu 20.04 and installed it with Docker repository following their documentation. And yet, I am having the error when running the driver:

❗  'docker' driver reported an issue: "docker version --format {{.Server.Os}}-{{.Server.Version}}" exit status 1: Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Get http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.40/version: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied
💡  Suggestion: Add your user to the 'docker' group: 'sudo usermod -aG docker $USER && newgrp docker'

afbjorklund · 2020-06-03T05:09:50Z

@afbjorklund indeed this new docker option is more appropriate for my intent. Should it work without this sudo usermod -aG docker $USER && newgrp docker?

No, that is currently required. It is related to #7963

We default to running docker through their root group (rather than using sudo docker) and running podman through passwordless sudo (rather than newgrp podman) according to upstream wishes...

When using KVM2, it uses a similar libvirt group...

As discussed in that other issue, the goal here is to run minikube as the user but the driver as root. We don't want root-owned files under $HOME, but we don't support rootless kubernetes either.

staticdev · 2020-06-08T16:14:37Z

Thanks for the enlightenment @afbjorklund and @medyagh. I am happy with docker option, we can close this one.

minikube v1.26.0 on Ubuntu 22.04 (xen/amd64)

Using the docker driver based on user configuration
The "docker" driver should not be used with root privileges. If you wish to continue as root, use --force.
If you are running minikube within a VM, consider using --driver=none:
