<p>I'm taking a Kubernetes course and part of the course is trying out minikube. I have minikube and kubectl installed on an Ubuntu 20.04 WSL on Windows 11. When I run <code>minikube dashboard</code> in the Ubuntu terminal the process hangs on <code>Verifying proxy health...</code>. I tried running <code>kubectl proxy</code> in another terminal window then running <code>minikube dashboard</code>.
I go to the dashboard URL and use the proxy port number that the kubectl proxy command indicates but I only get this:</p>
<pre><code>{
  &quot;kind&quot;: &quot;Status&quot;,
  &quot;apiVersion&quot;: &quot;v1&quot;,
  &quot;metadata&quot;: {},
  &quot;status&quot;: &quot;Failure&quot;,
  &quot;message&quot;: &quot;no endpoints available for service \&quot;kubernetes-dashboard\&quot;&quot;,
  &quot;reason&quot;: &quot;ServiceUnavailable&quot;,
  &quot;code&quot;: 503
}
</code></pre>
<p>I've also tried running minikube by using <code>minikube start --vm-driver=docker</code> as mentioned in this <a href="https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/issues/9473#issuecomment-1001145166" rel="noreferrer">GitHub issue</a> but it still hangs. How do get the dashboard to run? I'm completely new to Kubernetes in general.</p>

<p>For me the same issue was resolved after a restart of the minikube.</p>
<pre><code>minikube stop
&lt;close previously opened dashboard process&gt; - for me ctrl+c in separate terminal, but maybe you'd have to kill it
minikube start
minikube dashboard
</code></pre>
