Hi everyone! I’ve been using Rancher desktop as a replacement for Docker desktop on a Mac for a few months now. Today it stopped working for me completely. Basically it gets stuck during startup in the “Waiting for services…“, “Waiting for nodes…” or “Waiting for Kubernetes API…” steps randomly. The command line tools, like

kubectl

and

helm

seem to be working from the terminal, but the

docker

command just hangs. I tried Factory Resetting, reinstalling, using a different version of k8s and deleting the .kube folder, but I can’t seem to recover it to a working state. Any ideas? It would be great if I didn’t have to reinstall my Mac.

Hi Almos, does re-install fixes it? can you include some logs to see what is happening? thanks

@calm-sugar-3169 I created PR on github. This issue effects on more new macos 😕

@salmon-london-38845 thanks, do you think it is related to this issue? https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/issues/3288

@calm-sugar-3169 He even added comment as sleppingevi below PR 😄 I hope that will be fixed, because currently Rancher desktop is useless :/

@calm-sugar-3169 @proud-yak-16525 Yes, it’s probably related. I found the issue on github after commenting here. I’ll just follow the issue on github, thanks!
