How do I fix missing Skaffold installation errors?
Skaffold is a tool required by the Cloud Code. The plugin attempts to find the
Skaffold binary on the system PATH
. If you don't have Skaffold installed, or
the plugin simply can't detect the installation (possibly due to PATH
issues),
you may encounter an error in the Run Configuration.
To fix this, either
- Install Skaffold and ensure that it is added to the
PATH
. - Ensure the Skaffold executable name is skaffold on Linux and Mac systems, or skaffold.exe on Windows.
- If Skaffold is installed and it's still not detected, visit
Settings > Google > Kubernetes, and manually browse
to the executable.
How do I fix 'executable not found on PATH' errors?
If, during deployment or continuous development, you are getting errors in the
form of executable file not found in $PATH
.
For example:
time="2018-11-01T12:46:38-04:00" level=fatal msg="exiting dev mode because the first build failed: building [gcr.io//my-proj]: tagging: pushing: getting auth config for gcr.io//my-proj:3c275201-dirty-50f870d: getting auth config: error getting credentials - err: exec: "docker-credential-gcr": executable file not found in $PATH, out: ``"
Then, you may be running into the problem where the IDE is not inheriting the
shell environment variables. This can happen in some Linux environments when
the PATH
variables are defined in .bash_profile
or .bash_rc
and the
IDE is launched from the GUI, causing the IDE not to see the PATH
variables.
While, unfortunately, there isn't an optimal solution, the following actions are workarounds in Linux:
Launch the IDE from the terminal
First, follow these instructions to enable a command-line launcher. Then launch the IDE from the terminal.
For example, to launch IntelliJ IDEA from the terminal, navigate to the project you wish to open, then execute:
idea .
Similarly, to launch PyCharm, execute:
charm .
Alternatively, set the
PATH
variables in a system-wide location such as /etc/environment.
How do I fix Maven wrapper errors in the hello-world example project?
If you are getting errors in the form:
time="2019-03-08T11:13:45-05:00" level=fatal msg="watching files for artifact gcr.io/gcp-dev-tools/hello-spring-boot: listing files: listing files: getting jibMaven dependencies: unable to stat file Found "C:\Users\\google-cloud-intellij\kubernetes\examples\hello-spring-boot\.mvn\wrapper\maven-wrapper.jar": CreateFile Found "C:\Users\\google-cloud-intellij\kubernetes\examples\hello-spring-boot\.mvn\wrapper\maven-wrapper.jar": The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."Then you may be running into this known issue.
As a workaround in the Spring Boot hello-world project, you can change the
Skaffold project from the default
project to the docker
profile in your
Kubernetes Run Configuration.
