I recently updated minishift on mac:
minishift update:
...
Starting OpenShift using openshift/origin:v3.6.1 ...
..
-- Finding server IP ...
...
FAIL
Error: could not start OpenShift container "origin"
Details:
No log available from "origin" container
Error during 'cluster up' execution: Error starting the cluster.
$ minishift version
minishift v1.12.0+daa0943
There is an issue with v3.6.1.
If I revert back to v3.6.0 with:
brew cask reinstall minishift
OR
minishift start --openshift-version=v3.6.0
With version v3.6.0, it works it and does not do Finding server IP ...
Please advise how to fix v3.6.1 issue with:
No log available from "origin" container
It seems you already had a Minishift instance which was in stopped state when you ran the update command. Because the newer version has v3.6.1 as the default OpenShift version you are seeing this issue. Minsihift recommends [1] deleting the current instance and then starting will fix the issue.
