did you specify the right host or port? error on Kubernetes

Question

I have followed the helloword tutorial on http://kubernetes.io/docs/hellonode/.

When I run:

kubectl run hello-node --image=gcr.io/PROJECT_ID/hello-node         


        

Answer 1

Reproduce the same error when doing a tutorial from Udacity called Scalable Microservices with Kubernetes https://classroom.udacity.com/courses/ud615, at the point of Using Kubernetes, Part 3 of Lesson.

Launch a Single Instance:

kubectl run nginx --image=nginx:1.10.0

Error:

Unable to connect to the server: dial tcp [::1]:8080: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

How I resolved the Error:

Login to Google Cloud Platform

Navigate to Container Engine Google Cloud Platform, Container Engine

Click CONNECT on Cluster

Use login Credentials to access Cluster [NAME] in your Teminal

Proceeded With Work!!!
