No response for kind create cluster --name wslkind

[ItsDevMonk]

I was trying to setup the cluster in my WSL (Ubuntu - 20.04). But it is not showing any output.

That line means it's pulling the image, did docker fail to pull it?
Does it behave the same with just kind create cluster?

What versions? The bug report template has questions like what docker version what OS what kind version, etc.

Yes. It is behaving the same for this kind create cluster .

krish@DESKTOP-705RRMT:~$ kind version
kind v0.10.0 go1.15.7 linux/amd64
krish@DESKTOP-705RRMT:~$ docker -v
Docker version 20.10.5, build 55c4c88

It is running with WSL2. Ubuntu 20.04

re: WSL2 see also #1740 (comment)

I and the other maintainers don't use WSL2 so I'm not sure how much we can help here.

Image pulling hanging is not a kind bug, something is wrong with docker. Perhaps out of disk space?

so basically this will run docker pull kindest/node this command in the background, right? I tested this, this also not working in WSL

[BenTheElder]

for v0.10.0 it runs docker pull kindest/node:v1.20.2@sha256:8f7ea6e7642c0da54f04a7ee10431549c0257315b3a634f6ef2fecaaedb19bab (see release notes for the default)

if that can't work, kind can't work. docker has to pull the image.

docker pull kindest/node This is not working. But docker pull kindest/node:v1.20.2@sha256:8f7ea6e7642c0da54f04a7ee10431549c0257315b3a634f6ef2fecaaedb19bab this actually working for me. I can pull the node image. Then i ran this kind create cluster again. Now the cluster got created

[BenTheElder]

There is no :latest tag as arbitrary images should not be used.

I think all you saw was pulling this image is slow as it's a large image. Which is why it will hang at ensuring the image for some time.

[BenTheElder]

We've done what we can to make it smaller but kubernetes + dependencies is large.

Thanks for the update.
