OpenShift Local start error: Error: Powershell script for running the daemon does not exist

Does this help if you run crc setup from the commandline? Is it a fresh install, or were you using crc/podman desktop/... before?

@cfergeau

Does this help if you run crc setup from the commandline?

No, I keep getting this error when using the CLI after I reboot my PC.

$ crc setup

Make sure you installed crc using the Windows installer and performed required reboot

Is it a fresh install, or were you using crc/podman desktop/... before?

I just updated Podman, Podman Desktop, and OpenShift Local before running into this issue. It's been a while since I have used Podman Desktop because in previous versions I kept getting an error saying Podman disconnected from the daemon.

@anjannath reproducible?

[anjannath]

yes, i am able to reproduce this, #3839 should fix it

@schultzp2020 Hi, the original issue you were facing the error Powershell script for running the daemon..." has been fixed in the crc-extension` could give it another try and let us know if this is fixed now, thanks!

[schultzp2020]

Thank you for letting me know! I will update crc and give it a try tomorrow.

[anjannath]

the powershell script is now replaced with background-launcher
