Issues while trying to install Tidb in minikube

This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.

Hi, Seems like this is an outdated doc about minikube, could you refer to the latest one: Get Started With TiDB Operator on Kubernetes | PingCAP Docs

Looks like your kubernetes “cluster” (minikube) isn’t reachable. Are you sure it is running?

ok i will check the new link out, thanks

my minikube is running fine
here is the output
[ec2-user@ip-10-148-41-114 msubramanyam]$ /usr/local/bin/minikube kubectl get pod
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE

actually i got past that issue and i was able to get minikube, helm etc installed and followed the doc to get the tidb opeerator and components installed but i am not able to see all the services /pods under the tidb name space

[ec2-user@ip-10-148-41-114 bin]$ kubectl get pod -n tidb-cluster
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
basic-discovery-58fc76b4bb-frs4w 1/1 Running 0 11m
basic-monitor-0 4/4 Running 0 11m
basic-pd-0 1/1 Running 1 (4m5s ago) 11m
basic-tidb-dashboard-0 1/1 Running 0 11m
[ec2-user@ip-10-148-41-114 bin]$

any help is appreaciated

What OS are you using?
Are you using x86_64/am64 hardware or ARM64/Graviton?
What minikube version are you using?
What helm version are you using?

This is how things look for me:

i did all the process as per this doc

but at the end i only see these pods running
[ec2-user@ip-10-148-40-27 bin]$ ./kubectl get po -n tidb-cluster
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
basic-discovery-58fc76b4bb-5k2wg 1/1 Running 0 43h

basic-pd-0 1/1 Running 296 (7m11s ago) 43h
basic-tidb-dashboard-0 1/1 Running 0 43h

i dont see expected output as the doc
the basic-tidb and basic-tikv

Could you try these steps?
