I have tried running just the docker image and it works fine, I've tried purging minikube as it recommends and that has not solved the issue. I've also tried setting the MINIKUBE_HOME variable. I'm pretty new to K8S on centos7 so any advice would be greatly apreciated

Answer 1

Fixed by setting MINIKUBE_HOME variable to a value outside of the home directory. This github issue helped in solving this: https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/issues/11022#issuecomment-848387322
