hostpath
is not a storage class, but a volume type. Rancher Desktop provides a
local-path
storage class, that is a
local
volume.

same question remains then - why is the error thrown?
i'm not getting this error in minikube

Maybe minikube has a
hostpath
storage class? Which would be a confusing name choice...
Let me see if I can spin up minikube to double-check

no, it must be a deficiency with k3s 😞
man, you would think that local-path would be installed as hostpath so there was a graceful fallback

Well, show your volume definitions; I suspect you specify
hostpath
as a storage class name, which is not defined under
k3s

I do not
volumes:
- name: foobar
  hostPath:
    path: "/tmp/foobar"
it's a built in, so no need
like emptyDir

It is not called
hostpath
on
minikube
either; it is called
default
there:
$ kubectl get sc
NAME                 PROVISIONER                RECLAIMPOLICY   VOLUMEBINDINGMODE   ALLOWVOLUMEEXPANSION   AGE
standard (default)   <http://k8s.io/minikube-hostpath|k8s.io/minikube-hostpath>   Delete          Immediate           false                  27s

So you need to show an example config that can reproduce the error, if you want some help with finding your problem

That is not a complete example that you can pass to
kubectl apply ...

I've added a working example to your "bug" report. It is a problem with your config. If you are not willing to share it, then there is nothing else I can do to help you.

what ever you say man. if you think this is the way to increase adoption

Sorry, what do you expect me to do? I genuinely have no idea.
You show an error message with an incomplete sample snippet that doesn't reproduce the issue when added to a full pod spec.

it's fine. i was the last rancher hold out. i'm just gonna move to minikube. every one on my team can run this chart with success locally
thanks
Which would be a confusing name choice...
I believe this is the "cause". They chose to name their pvc solution the same thing you would use for an ephemeral volume. You deserve an apology. I'm sorry.

It's ok. I'm trying to help, but you seemed in a bad mood...
