title: Kubernetes Dashboard is not available
body: <p>This is my first time what I'm installing Kubernetes and trying to understand how it works. First problem that I can't solve is opening Dashboard via HTTP protocol using <code>proxy</code> by visting the URL from documentation:</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://localhost:8001/api/v1/namespaces/kubernetes-dashboard/services/https:kubernetes-dashboard:/proxy/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://localhost:8001/api/v1/namespaces/kubernetes-dashboard/services/https:kubernetes-dashboard:/proxy/</a></p>
  
  <p>Browser's respond is: <em>This site can’t be reached. Localhost refused to connect.</em></p>

  <h2>Little bit about my environment!</h2>
  
  <p><strong>I've started with virtual machines equipped with:</strong></p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Master: 2 VCPU, 4GB RAM,  Ubuntu 18.04</li>
  <li>Worker1: 1 VCPU, 2GB RAM,  Ubuntu 18.04</li>
  <li>Worker1: 1 VCPU, 2GB RAM,  Ubuntu 18.04</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>All running and connected to a private network.</p>
  
  <p>So far I followed the instructions to setup production environment by <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/production-environment/tools/kubeadm/install-kubeadm/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">installing kubeadm</a>. Than <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/production-environment/tools/kubeadm/create-cluster-kubeadm/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">created a single control-plane cluster with kubeadm</a> without joining any nodes yet.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Environment that I created is:</strong></p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Kubernetes version 1.15 (run as <em>root</em> user)</li>
  <li>Docker version 18.09.9 (run as <em>root</em> user)</li>
  <li>Calico version 3.8 (run as <em>non-root</em> user)</li>
  <li>Dashboard version 2.0.0-beta4 (run as <em>non-root</em> user)</li>
  </ul>

  <p>All seems to be running.</p>

  <p>What I can is to see some respond when I load</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://master-IP:6443/api/v1/namespaces/kubernetes-dashboard/services/https:kubernetes-dashboard:/proxy/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://master-IP:6443/api/v1/namespaces/kubernetes-dashboard/services/https:kubernetes-dashboard:/proxy/</a></p>

  <p>So what I can't is to open/load Kubernetes Dashboard UI using proxy over HTTP protocol by <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/access-application-cluster/web-ui-dashboard/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">official Kubernetes Dashboard documentation</a>.</p>

  <p>P.S. One thing is unclear to me when setting up a new user to log in to Dashboard using bearer token tied to this user. Shouldn't the value of <code>namespace</code> be changed from <code>kube-system</code> to <code>kubernetes-dashboard</code> according to the <a href="https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard/releases/tag/v2.0.0-beta1" rel="nofollow noreferrer">changelog of v2.0.0-beta1</a>?</p>
