Question

Hi Guys,

I am trying to login in my pod using exec command. But it is showing me the below error.

C:\Users\Nadeem Akhter>kubectl exec -it myprom-69684ff8c5-98rmh  -- bash
OCI runtime exec failed: exec failed: container_linux.go:349: starting container process caused "exec: \"bash\": executable file not found in $PATH": unknown
command terminated with exit code 126

How can I solve this error?

Hi@akhtar,

It seems that in your pod bash shell is not present. You can try with another shell as given below.

C:\Users\Nadeem Akhter>kubectl exec -it myprom-69684ff8c5-98rmh  -- sh

Hope this will help.
