[abctl] failed to verify certificate: x509

[atlasrule]

What happened?

Hello,

When I start abctl.exe on windows host using wsl docker, I get the following unkown authority certificate error:
 
INFO Using Kubernetes provider:
Provider: kind
Kubeconfig: C:\Users\atlasrule.airbyte\abctl\abctl.kubeconfig
Context: kind-airbyte-abctl
SUCCESS Found Docker installation: version 27.0.3
SUCCESS Port 8000 appears to be available

INFO An error occurred while communicating with the Kubernetes cluster.
If this error persists, you may need to run the uninstall command before attempting to run
the install command again.

What did you expect to happen?

Couldn't find any bypass or ignore certificate flag in abctl, and also couldn't edit the dockerfile for installing any certificate, can you help me about the convention for this error?

Can you check the discussion on Docker forum. This looks your env is missing the certificates.

Thank you very much, solved the issue by installing on some different system and network.

[marcosmarxm]

@atlasrule can you provide more information about what system/network you tried and the one it worked?

How come the OP marked this as an answer, when he actually had to reinstall airbyte on a different system to make it work. I'm experiencing exactly the same issue.

I was able to resolve the issue, at least temporarily so far. The issue was certificates expiring

From inside the airbyte-abctl-control-plane docker container:

kubeadm certs check-expiration

All had expired.

# Backup existing certificates
cp -r /etc/kubernetes/pki /etc/kubernetes/pki.backup

# Renew all certificates
kubeadm certs renew all

# Restart kubelet to pick up new certificates
systemctl restart kubelet

# Restart the container
exit
docker restart airbyte-abctl-control-plane

I was unable to update airbyte for potentially other reasons, but this was able to get the existing installation back up. I uninstalled and reinstalled (which keeps the data) and it came up fine.
