Permissions problems with openshift client on minishift


I have installed minishift with cask and openshift client with homebrew.

However, as developer user, I am not able to create a project from openshift cli, trigger a build, etc. I always have permissions errors :

Error from server (Forbidden): User "developer" cannot list all project.openshift.io.projectrequests in the cluster
Error from server (Forbidden): User "developer" cannot list authorization.openshift.io.rolebindings in project "my_awesome_project"
Error from server (Forbidden): User "developer" cannot create build.openshift.io.buildconfigs/instantiatebinary in project "my_awesome_project"

However, I am able to create projects from the UI. How can I grant developer user permissions from the command line ?

I am using MacOS High Sierra:

➜ minishift version
minishift v1.15.1+a5c47dd

➜ oc version
oc v3.9.0+191fece
kubernetes v1.9.1+a0ce1bc657
features: Basic-Auth

Server https://192.168.99.100:8443
openshift v1.5.0-rc.0+49a4a7a
kubernetes v1.5.2+43a9be4

Solution

  • The version of oc that you are using (3.9) is not compatible with the server (1.5 / 3.5). Use a newer version of Openshift or downgrade oc to 3.6.
