@ruoru it appears to me there is a file permission problem !
when you tried to remove the folder

➜  ~ rm -rf ~/.minikube/
rm: /Users/chenshijie342/.minikube//machines/minikube/b2d-image/.autodiskmounted: Permission denied

rm: /Users/chenshijie342/.minikube//machines: Directory not empty
rm: /Users/chenshijie342/.minikube/: Directory not empty

it seems like it didnt have permission to delete it, maybe you could try the delete with sudo ?

[tstromberg]

@ruoru - I can't quite tell how minikube got into this state, but please let us know if sudo rm -Rf ~/.minikube/machines solves your issue.

Hey @ruoru -- I noticed this line in your logs:

📌  You may need to manually remove the "minikube" VM from your hypervisor

I'm wondering if you may need to manually delete the minikube VM in hyperkit. You could try running

ps -Af | grep minikube

to see if any unexpected processes are running.

@priyawadhwa i am run the shell and i do not know what the process is

[tstromberg]

@ruora - I noticed the version of hyperkit you have is quite old. Do you mind upgrading it, as well as minikube to the latest version? I suspect that doing so will allow things to work again.

You may need to re-run rm -Rf ~/.minikube though first.

[priyawadhwa]

Hey @ruoru -- hopefully it's OK if I close this - there wasn't enough information to make it actionable, and some time has already passed. If you are able to provide additional details, you may reopen it at any point by adding /reopen to your comment.

I'd recommend:

• upgrading to the latest version of minikube
• upgrading to the latest version of hyperkit

and then running:

minikube delete
sudo rm -rf ~/.minikube
minikube start --alsologtostderr -v 8

if any of these commands fail, please include the output when you reopen the issue. Thank you!

As a note, I also received this error, and it was due to a ~/.netrc file created a few years ago by Heroku Toolbelt. Removing the ~/.netrc file resolved the issue.
