So, I'm running rancher 1.5.0 (it isn't offering an update to 1.5.1 atm) and i'm seeing problems w/ running amd64 images on arm64 (m1) where the first argument to a program is mostly ignored (seems to be treated as the program name). @proud-jewelry-46860, is this https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/commit/5f13d904ad23edc0641ef10baa2eae562ddd2aa3 ?

Ultimately I have two goals: 1. I’d like to align my local dev environment as much as possible with my cloud environment (i.e. cloud Kubernetes will be using containerd runtime with no shim) 2. Various tools my team is looking at using only seem to work with Docker and not with nerdctl What is the best way to accomplish this? Can I use “containerd” runtime setting in Rancher Desktop to get matching Kubernetes environment… and then install Docker Engine(?) outside of Rancher Desktop in order to use it rather than nerdctl?

So if you happen to be running a custom SSH agent -- and have a .ssh/config enabling it with like

Host *

-- beware that Rancher Desktop will get eternally stuck starting up -- it sucks Especially considering I really like this Agent https://github.com/maxgoedjen/secretive

brew install secretive

Hi there... How can I enable feature gates in the Rancher Desktop (MacOs M1) https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/command-line-tools-reference/feature-gates/#using-a-feature?

According to  <https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/issues/578#issuecomment-996557436>, I could add an overrides at `~/Library/Application\ Support/rancher-desktop/lima/_config/override.yaml` as follows, but it hasn't applied...

I'm running into an issue where I keep getting timeouts while running basic kubectl commands. IE

kubectl get node

If I wait a couple minutes and retry it, it'll work, but shortly there after it'll fail again. Has anyone seen this?

I had time to do some additional troubleshooting, and here are my findings: • The Lima Alpine ISO boots properly when run in VirtualBox, whether that's on the host itself, or in VirtualBox VM within a VirtualBox VM. • The Lima Alpine ISO does NOT boot properly when run in QEMU/KVM within a VirtualBox VM. I wasn't able to capture the error information entirely since I only had a VGA console, but the last 20 lines or so matched up with the boot error I originally posted, so I assume it ran into the same problem. • The upstream Alpine ISOs ("standard" and "virt") similarly fails to boot when run in QEMU/KVM within a VirtualBox VM. • The Ubuntu 22.04 server ISO runs properly and boots to the installer menu when run in QEMU/KVM within a VirtualBox VM So it looks like this is an issue with Alpine running in QEMU/KVM within VirtualBox specifically. I'll take it up with them. 🙂

Another question: How can I backup the etcd db? Thanks in advance!

@dazzling-stone-4104 Hi that would be nodes

kubectl get nodes

kubectl get nodes -o wide

are you a member of https://community.suse.com there are some articles and some training sessions on etcd backups.

It's due to architecture of Lima, you are setting actually an upper limit for memory. It doesn't allocate it immediately unless you don't need it

Hello, just upgraded my RD to 1.5.1 (MacOS 12.5, containerd, x86) and facing the same nerdctl issue mentioned in https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/issues/2689 ie

~$ nerdctl pull mongo
FATA[0000] expected ac.ServerAddress ("") to be "<https://index.docker.io/v1/>"

Is that something that will be fixed soon? I see that the issue #2745 mentions a workaround, but I don’t use RD with moby (I still have Docker Desktop) and this is pretty much a show-stopper for me.

Trying to deploy

kube-vip

to Rancher Desktop. There are instructions for a vanilla

k3s

installation using auto-loaded manifests, but it's not clear where to put those; and the install calls for some flags to be set at k3s launch time which doesn't appear to be exposed in the UI. Full question noted at https://github.com/kube-vip/kube-vip/issues/436

Hey everyone. I need to set up my corporate proxy for rancher desktop. I can't seem to find an article online explaining how. I want rd to be able to pull images down from hub.docker.com in my k3s rd cluster and I also want to be able to do the following behind a corporate proxy:

nerdctl run --name mysql -p 3306:3306 mysql

Thanks for any help in advance!

If I had to guess, for some reason git is not installed in the VM Rancher is running, although that seems like a weird oversight

Hey! I do have rancher-desktop 1.5 installed with configured containerd as runtime. When I do start docker containers within default container namespace (non k8s) with local port fowarding, this works one. I can see that an ssh connection is created to forward traffic to lima vm. However if I stop/kill the container this ssh connection gets removed after some time. On initial start and exposure of the same port the ssh connection (and process) does not get recreated. It only works again if I expose it over a new port. Any ideas what that’s about?

From the path you wrote, I take it you are running on Linux? There is this issue that may be helpful: https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/issues/578. I think (I haven't tried this) the path should be

~/.local/share/rancher-desktop/lima/_config/override.yaml

. I'm curious to hear how it goes
