Frequently Asked Questions
I ran into an issue, what should I do?
If an error occurs, try to run the command again as there is a ~/.kubefirst
file on your localhost that keeps track of your execution state. If it still doesn't work, each command create a log file in the logs
folder, which is added at the root of the current location: the full path is displayed at the beginning of command outputs. This log file will often describe the details of what happened at the point of failure, and can help indicate the right steps for resolution.
If it's still not working, you can join our Slack community and ask for help in the #helping-hands
channel. You can also open an issue describing the problems you are having. We'll gladly work through it with you.

Where can I have the services passwords?
The passwords are stored in the ~/.kubefirst
file. You can find the password for each service in the services
section. The handoff screen (the purple screen at the end of the installation) also displays the passwords.
