Manual Install for WSL
JHBalaji opened this issue · comments
I did manual install for the krew and it seemed to work but again when installing this plugin I hit the same issue with path and permission denied.
How can I compile/install this bin in my WSL?
Updated the local copy of plugin index.

I copied the binary to the /home/user_name/.krew/store/tree/v0.4.0 and ran an upgrade. I was able to access the plugin as kubectl-tree for now.
It seems you were using Krew. Are you sure this path is writable?
Can you please try this:
mkdir -p /home/user_name/.krew/store/tree/0.4.0
and see if it works?

Krew has path issues in WSL so most mount to root in C or use KREW_ROOT. Path is writable. @159 helped me.
Please open an issue in Krew repo if any. I've tested it before with WSL and it has worked fine.
