<p>I have installed Minikube on my laptop. I am trying to run the Istio. I have followed the instructions given here.
<a href="https://istio.io/docs/setup/getting-started/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://istio.io/docs/setup/getting-started/</a></p>

<p>My setup is as below.</p>

<ul>
<li>Microsoft Windows 10 Pro </li>
<li>Minikube version 1.5.2</li>
<li>Kubernetes version 1.16.2</li>
<li>Istio version 1.4</li>
</ul>

<p>When I run the command as given in the documentation</p>

<pre><code>  istioctl manifest apply --set profile=demo
</code></pre>

<p>It fails immediately giving below error.</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>Could not configure logs: couldn't open sink "/dev/null": open
  /dev/null: The system cannot find the path specified.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>Anybody has faced the issue? Thanks in advance for any pointers.</p>

<p>Try adding flag --logtostderr.</p>

<pre><code>istioctl manifest apply --set profile=demo --logtostderr
</code></pre>
