Helm：问题对应：k3s下使用helm 3提示Kubernetes cluster unreachable

在k3s 1.0.0版本安装之后使用helm 3时提示Kubernetes cluster unreachable，手动指定KUBECONFIG即可解决此问题。

现象

在使用helm install安装时提示Kubernetes cluster unreachable的错误信息

[root@liumiaocn ~]# helm install excited-squid stable/mysql
Error: Kubernetes cluster unreachable
[root@liumiaocn ~]#

环境准备

• k3s环境准备

• helm 3安装

问题再现

[root@liumiaocn ~]# helm list

[root@liumiaocn ~]# helm repo list

对应方法

因为使用的是k3s的集群，只需执行如下命令手动指定KUBECONFIG的位置即可。

执行命令：export KUBECONFIG=/etc/rancher/k3s/k3s.yaml

结果确认

[root@liumiaocn ~]# export KUBECONFIG=/etc/rancher/k3s/k3s.yaml
[root@liumiaocn ~]# helm install excited-squid stable/mysql
NAME: excited-squid
LAST DEPLOYED: Wed Dec  4 05:29:35 2019
NAMESPACE: default
STATUS: deployed
REVISION: 1
NOTES:
MySQL can be accessed via port 3306 on the following DNS name from within your cluster:
excited-squid-mysql.default.svc.cluster.local

To get your root password run:

    MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=$(kubectl get secret --namespace default excited-squid-mysql -o jsonpath="{.data.mysql-root-password}" | base64 --decode; echo)

To connect to your database:

1. Run an Ubuntu pod that you can use as a client:

    kubectl run -i --tty ubuntu --image=ubuntu:16.04 --restart=Never -- bash -il

2. Install the mysql client:

    $ apt-get update && apt-get install mysql-client -y

3. Connect using the mysql cli, then provide your password:
    $ mysql -h excited-squid-mysql -p

To connect to your database directly from outside the K8s cluster:
    MYSQL_HOST=127.0.0.1
    MYSQL_PORT=3306

    # Execute the following command to route the connection:
    kubectl port-forward svc/excited-squid-mysql 3306

    mysql -h ${MYSQL_HOST} -P${MYSQL_PORT} -u root -p${MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD}
[root@liumiaocn ~]#

稍等之后确认结果如下所示

[root@liumiaocn ~]# kubectl get pods
NAME                                   READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
excited-squid-mysql-649c99cbcf-2n6xs   1/1     Running   0          14m
[root@liumiaocn ~]#
