<p>Kindly help. </p>

<p>Looks like your <code>kube-dns</code> pods can't talk to your kube-apiserver. Port <code>443</code> on the kube-apiserver has been deprecated for a while. Your ConfigMap or config file is making it point to <code>&lt;kube-master:443&gt;</code>. </p>

<p>You can try overriding it on your kube-dns deployment with the <code>--kube-master-url</code> option. Something like this:</p>

<pre><code>apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: kube-dns
  namespace: kube-system
  labels:
    k8s-app: kube-dns
    kubernetes.io/cluster-service: "true"
    addonmanager.kubernetes.io/mode: Reconcile
spec:
  strategy:
    rollingUpdate:
      maxSurge: 10%
      maxUnavailable: 0
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      k8s-app: kube-dns
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        k8s-app: kube-dns
      annotations:
        scheduler.alpha.kubernetes.io/critical-pod: ''
    spec:
      tolerations:
      - key: "CriticalAddonsOnly"
        operator: "Exists"
      volumes:
      - name: kube-dns-config
        configMap:
          name: kube-dns
          optional: true
      containers:
      - name: kubedns
        image: gcr.io/google_containers/k8s-dns-kube-dns-amd64:1.14.7
        ...
        args:
        - --kube-master-url=https://&lt;master-ip&gt;:6443
        - --domain=cluster.local.
        - --dns-port=10053
        - --config-dir=/kube-dns-config
        - --v=2
</code></pre>

<p>You can get the  from the output of:</p>

<pre><code>$ kubectl cluster-info
</code></pre>
