How to upgrade minikube?

Solution 1:

Before reinstall minikube (OS X), check the following:

  • Make sure that you have brew updated:

    brew update
    
  • Make sure that you already have cask installed:

    brew cask install minikube --verbose
    

Finally, execute the following command in the same directory you've installed minikube previously (usually /usr/local/bin/):

brew cask reinstall minikube

If you see an output similar to this:

Error: It seems there is already a Binary at '/usr/local/bin/minikube'; not linking.

  • Remove the existing binary:

    rm /usr/local/bin/minikube
    

Now, you should able to reinstall (upgrade) minikube. :)
