Here is a workaround that seems to work that allows us to proceed further.

It looks like the cluster is fine. So instead of spending more time trying to 
find out what is going with the rancher server, we decided to directly talk to 
the kubernetes API server.

During the initial few minutes when rancher server is still available.

Get the node VM IP addresses if you don’t know them already.

kubectl get nodes -o=wide

Find out which VM has api server running.

ssh ubuntu@<VM-IP> docker ps | grep kubernetes-kubernetes

confirm that it is indeed running apiserver:

docker exec <container ID> ps -aux

Use that VM for running kubectl commands after copying the .kube/config file 
and kubectl file to that VM. Modify the .kube/config server line with the 
container’s IP address.

Subject: RE: [onap-discuss] Issues with Tiller (Cannot Connect to Tiller)

Hi All,

We haven’t been able to solve this problem. The problem seems to be with the 
rancher server which crashes and is only fixed by restarting dockerd. The thing 
is after restarting, it comes back up and then it dies again very shortly after 
and then I can’t connect to tiller. I have seen this problem on multiple ONAP 
installs. I am running v1.6.18 of the rancher server, does anyone know how to 
fix this and is anyone else facing this issue?

Thanks,
Itohan

It looked like dockerd was messed up. I was not able to restart the rancher 
server. In fact it said that no such container existed.

I had no choice but to restart docker itself. Everything seems to be working 
now.

I tried the following commands:

kubectl version
helm ls
kubectl -n onap get pods

and they all are working fine.

Thanks,

Thanks Steve. Is it possible to run these commands without doing a new install 
or does this have to be integrated into the ONAP install. I ask because when I 
try to run the first command, I see the same kubectl error (The connection to 
the server 10.12.5.195:8080 was refused - did you specify the right host or 
port?) I have seen with other kubectl commands.

Thanks,
Itohan

Hi Itohan,

I have also faced this issue when installing ONAP recently.

The problem comes from the fact that there is no service account for the Tiller 
service.

To solve this issue, you just need to create a Kubernetes service account for 
Tiller and init helm. See the command bellow
$kubectl --namespace kube-system create serviceaccount tiller
$kubectl create clusterrolebinding tiller --clusterrole cluster-admin 
--serviceaccount=kube-system:tiller
$helm init --service-account tiller --upgrade

Regards,
Steve
