Hello all. I just stood up a brand new K3s cluster running version

v1.24.3+k3s1

. I already have an independent Rancher 2.6.5 cluster running. I went to import my new K3s cluster into Rancher (generic, using local VMware) and I am getting failures during the initial cattle-system setup. The cattle-system-agent is failing to start. The pod logs show

evel=fatal msg="looking up cattle-system/cattle ca/token: no secret exists for service account cattle-system/cattle"

. I found here https://github.com/rancher/rancher/issues/37027 that Rancher 2.6.5 AND 2.6.6 for that matter do not support K8s distros of 1.24. Is my only solution to install a prior version of K3s? Looks like

v1.23.9+k3s1

is the previous 1.23 version available on GitHub.

yes, currently rancher is only tested against 1.23.x as the latest version. But 1.24 should be supported in the next release which should be out soon if you'd be able to wait (I don't have a solid timeline for the release sorry 😕)

Ok. Thank you for the feedback/confirmation.
