An error occurred ResourceNotFoundException when calling the DescribeCluster operation No cluster found for name fargate-cluster

Question

Hi Guys,

I am new to AWS EKS. I have created one Fargate profile. But I am not able to update its credentials to the Kubernetes config file. It is showing me the below error.

$ aws eks update-kubeconfig --name fargate-cluster
An error occurred (ResourceNotFoundException) when calling the DescribeCluster operation: No cluster found for name: fargate-cluster.

How can I solve this error?

Hi@akhtar,

I think you need to tell your region name where you created your Fargate Profile. In my case, it is working fine. 

C:\Users\NADIM AKTHAR\Openstack>aws eks --region ap-southeast-1 update-kubeconfig --name fargate-cluster
Added new context arn:aws:eks:ap-southeast-1:142213003344:cluster/fargate-cluster to C:\Users\NADIM AKTHAR\.kube\config

I hope this will help you.

Hi @MD,

I updated the region as well. But, I still the same error. Any other idea to resolve this DescribeCluster error issue. ? The cluster's name is right, no changes in mine. But still it says that my cluster's name is unrecognizable.

My issue below:

An error occurred (InvalidParameterException) when calling the DescribeCluster operation: The name parameter contains invalid characters. It should begin with letter or digit and can have any of the following characters: the set of Unicode letters, digits, hyphens and underscores.
