Unable to Change Kubectl Context to my Google Kubernetes Cluster

发布于 2020-04-11 22:19:23

I've created a Google Kubernetes Engine Cluster through the Cloud Console. Now I want to connect to it using kubectl from my local machine. A few weeks ago I used

gcloud container clusters get-credentials cents-ideas --zone europe-west3-a --project cents-ideas

as provided by the Cloud Console.

The output after running this command is:

Fetching cluster endpoint and auth data.
kubeconfig entry generated for cents-ideas.

But the cluster is neither in kubectl config get-contexts nor set as kubectl config current-context. I am confused because this command used to work and did nothing different.

My kubectl version:

I had microk8s installed. Removing it and instead installing snap install kubectl fixed my issue.
