Any ideas

jpuris · Answer

this is what fails ```kubectl namespace default port forward $POD NAME 8080 $CONTAINER PORT``` it is trying to port forward the server running in a pod on k8s to your local machine so then you could open it in ```Visit <http 127 0 0 1 8080> to use your application``` It fails to do so because your local system s 8080 port is already in use

Was complaining over lack of password so I added one into the values yaml but now I get this error ``` with self open mode= w encoding=encoding errors=errors newline=newline as f File usr local lib python3 10 pathlib py line 1119 in open return self accessor open self mode buffering encoding errors OSError Errno 30 Read only file system opt prefect memo store toml ERROR Application startup failed Exiting Orion stopped ```
