kubectl running problem in master node while creating Kubernetes cluster using kubespray

Question

I am trying to create Kubernetes cluster using kubespray with single master and 3 working node. I cloned the github kubespray repository and running the ansible playbook from my control node for forming cluster.

I am trying the following command:

ansible-playbook \
  -i inventory/sample/hosts.ini \
  cluster.yml \
  --become \
  --ask-become-pass

When I am running the command, 2 worker node getting final status ok. But for the master node it showing failed and getting error like the following:

fatal: [mildevkub020]: FAILED! => {
  "changed": false, 
  "msg": "error running kubectl (/usr/local/bin/kubectl apply 
  --force --filename=/etc/kubernetes/k8s-cluster-critical-pc.yml) 
  command (rc=1), out='', err='error: unable to recognize 
  \"/etc/kubernetes/k8s-cluster-critical-pc.yml\": Get 
  http://localhost:8080/api?timeout=32s: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:8080: 
  connect: connection refused\n'"
}

I am adding the screenshot for the error below:

Modification

I removed my older kubespray repo and cloned the fresh one from the following link,

https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kubespray.git

And updated my inventory. But still getting the same error. When I run "journalctl" command for logs, I am getting like the following:

Error ,

Make sure that you have followed all requirements before cluster installation. Especially copying ssh key to all the servers part of your inventory.

Reset environment after previous installation:

$ sudo ansible-playbook -i inventory/mycluster/hosts.yml reset.yml -b -v \
  --private-key=~/.ssh/private_key

Remember to change cluster configuration file and personalize it. You can change network plugin - default is Calico.

Then run ansible playbook again using this command:

$ sudo ansible-playbook -i inventory/sample/hosts.ini cluster.yml -b -v \ 
  --private-key=~/.ssh/private_key

Try to copy /sample folder and rename it and then change k8s-cluster and hosts file.

Check hosts file: Remember to not modify the children of k8s-cluster, like putting the etcd group into the k8s-cluster, unless you are certain to do that.

k8s-cluster ⊂ etcd => kube-node ∩ etcd = etcd

Example inventory file you can find here: inventory.

If problem still exists please execute command journalctl and check what logs show.

EDIT:

As you provided more information. From your logs it looks like you have to set the VM hardware version to the highest available in your VMware setup, and install all available updates on this system.

Thank you for your response. I tried these. But not working , still the same error.How I need to continue here ? — Mr.DevEng, Oct 15 '19 at 15:33
Yes. Thank you for your response. I removed my old kubespray repo and cloned the fresh kubespray git repo. And added my inventory. But getting the error ""msg": "error running kubectl (/usr/local/bin/kubectl apply --force --filename=/etc/kubernetes/node-crb.yml) command (rc=1),". And runned the journalctl command . The logs I am editing in question. Can you please look on that ? — Mr.DevEng, Oct 16 '19 at 08:53
