K8s mounting persistentVolume failed, "timed out waiting for the condition" on docker-desktop

Question

When trying to bind a pod to a NFS persistentVolume hosted on another pod, it fails to mount when using docker-desktop. It works perfectly fine elsewhere even with the exact same YAML.

The error:

      volumes:

        name: lagg-claim

As well as emptyDir I have also tried hostPath. This setup has worked before, and I'm not sure what I've changed if anything since it has stopped.

Answer 1

Updating my Docker for Windows installation from 4.0.1 to 4.1.1 has fixed this problem.
