<p>I'm going through the <a href="https://linkerd.io/2/getting-started/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">getting-started</a> tutorial for <code>linkerd</code> and I've got <code>stable-2.1.0</code> installed on kube <code>v1.9.6</code> and <code>v1.12.3</code></p>

<p>I've validated that all the pods are running and the mesh is working via the dashboard.</p>

<p>When I try to run <code>linkerd -n linkerd top deploy/linkerd-web</code> in step 4, I get <code>invalid argument</code> back from the controller.</p>

<p>Here's the verbose output:</p>

<pre><code>DEBU[0000] Expecting API to be served over [https://xx.xx.xx.xx:6443/api/v1/namespaces/linkerd/services/linkerd-controller-api:http/proxy/api/v1/]

<p>Any advice on what I should try next?</p>

<p>I also created this <a href="https://github.com/linkerd/linkerd2/issues/1976" rel="nofollow noreferrer">issue on GitHub</a></p>

<p>Turns out there are some dependencies (termbox) for drawing the top table that aren't supported on Windows Subsystem for Linux. Here's the issue on GitHub: <a href="https://github.com/linkerd/linkerd2/issues/1976" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/linkerd/linkerd2/issues/1976</a></p>
