error doing tutorial "certificate apiserver-kubelet-client not signed by CA certificate"

[1dropaflame]

error execution phase certs/apiserver-kubelet-client: [certs] certificate apiserver-kubelet-client not signed by CA certificate ca: crypto/rsa: verification error
To see the stack trace of this error execute with --v=5 or higher

On Windows 11,

1. ran Docker Desktop in Admin mode
2. opened a windows terminal in administrator mode.
3. ran wsl
4. installed minikube for windows
5. in wsl terminal
   minikube start --memory=2200mb --cpus=3 --kubernetes-version=v1.18.6 --vm-driver=docker -p devnation

I get the above error. Logs attached.

minikube starts only if I do

/mnt/c/kubernetes-tutorial$ minikube start driver=docker

I see one error of "Your cgroup does not allow setting memory." It could be that on WSL that memory is equal to that of the Docker Daemon and that is how it is set. See if "-p" for profile will work. -p is optional. --kubernetes-version is not required to run the tutorial, the lastest version should normally work aside from the occasional aging out of a specific version string in a .yaml (I upgraded the ingress yaml recently).

Thanks. I tried again with -p devnation

😿 Failed to start docker container. Running "minikube delete -p devnation" may fix it: provision: Temporary Error: NewSession: new client: new client: ssh: handshake failed: ssh: unable to authenticate, attempted methods [none publickey], no supported methods remain

Trying to create an ingress (following the tutorial since external ip address was in pending state), I get a certificate error.
following https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/access-application-cluster/ingress-minikube/

error execution phase certs/apiserver-kubelet-client: [certs] certificate apiserver-kubelet-client not signed by CA certificate ca: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority (possibly because of "crypto/rsa: verification error" while trying to verify candidate authority certificate "minikubeCA")

logs are attached.

When I do a minikube delete and then minikube start without specifying -p devnation or driver=docker, then it works. I don't understand it.

One tricky thing is that we are able to test these materials on Mac and Linux fairly often but we have very few Windows machines to test with.

I can volunteer to run tests on my machine :)
It is likely that most people running your tutorials to learn Kubernetes, are on Windows machines.
