bug: if local machine has a kind installation already, porter fails

[kurktchiev]

If you have a kind cluster up locally, porter install --param cluster-type=kind fails to proceed. I did not have a chance to debug thoroughly, but the fix locally was to delete my existing kind cluster, which allowed the installation to proceed. We need to figure out where/why the clash was happening.

Strange, the Porter install should be aware that the kind cluster already exists and avoid conflicts. Can you post the error you run into?

No it wasn’t that a backstack cluster already existed, it was having issues with the fact that there were other kind instances running locally. I will rerun and try to grab the issue again next week

i cannot reproduce this anymore locally, but in that time kind got updated so maybe it was red herring.

Found the problem. in our kind.config we bind 80/443 which in turn means we cannot stand up more instances

apiVersion: kind.x-k8s.io/v1alpha4
kind: Cluster
nodes:
- role: control-plane
  kubeadmConfigPatches:
  - |
    kind: InitConfiguration
    nodeRegistration:
      kubeletExtraArgs:
        node-labels: "ingress-ready=true"        
  extraPortMappings:
  - containerPort: 80
    hostPort: 80
    protocol: TCP
  - containerPort: 443
    hostPort: 443
    protocol: TCP

So if I want to stand up another instance of the HUB on my local host, it will fail. This is isolated to KinD
