title: Kubernetes service showing External Ip '<pending>'. How can I enable it?
body: <p>Having trouble getting a wordpress Kubertenes service to listen on my machine so that I can access it with my web browser.  It just says "External IP" is pending.   <strong>I'm using the Kubertenes configuration from Docker Edge v18.06 on Mac, with advanced Kube config enabled (not swarm).</strong></p>
  
  <p>Following this tutorial FROM: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=65&amp;v=jWupQjdjLN0" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=65&amp;v=jWupQjdjLN0</a></p>
  
  <p>And using .yaml config files from <a href="https://github.com/kubernetes/examples/tree/master/mysql-wordpress-pd" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/kubernetes/examples/tree/master/mysql-wordpress-pd</a></p>
  
  <pre><code>MACPRO:mysql-wordpress-pd me$ kubectl get services
  NAME              TYPE           CLUSTER-IP      EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)        AGE
  kubernetes        ClusterIP      10.96.0.1       &lt;none&gt;        443/TCP        48m
  wordpress         LoadBalancer   10.99.205.222   &lt;pending&gt;     80:30875/TCP   19m
  wordpress-mysql   ClusterIP      None            &lt;none&gt;        3306/TCP       19m
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The commands to get things running, to see for yourself:</p>
  
  <pre><code>kubectl create -f local-volumes.yaml
  kubectl create secret generic mysql-pass --from-literal=password=DockerCon
  kubectl create -f mysql-deployment.yaml
  kubectl create -f wordpress-deployment.yaml 
  kubectl get pods
  kubectl get services
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Start admin console to see more detailed config in your web browser:</p>
  
  <pre><code>kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/dashboard/master/src/deploy/recommended/kubernetes-dashboard.yaml
  kubectl proxy
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm hoping someone can clarify things for me here.  Thank you.</p>
