Deploying to Minikube cluster is missing a namespace to pick after cluster restart (or some other manipulation with its state)

[odockal]

Bug description

After some time with playing with minikube cluster and its kubecontext, it seems that once I try to deploy to Kubernetes (with minikube context set) it is missing a namespace field in the form and it throws and error: ECONRESET and I cannot deploy the container to the cluster.

Operating system

macOS 14 M2

Installation Method

Installer from website/GitHub releases

Version

next (development version)

Steps to reproduce

1. Create and start minikube cluster
2. Switch to minikube kube context
3. Create a container
4. Deploy Container to Kubernetes
5. Assert: Kube context set is minikube
6. Assert: Namespace field offers default namespace to deploy pod/container to
7. Restart minikube
8. Assert 5 and 6 again and deploy app
   Actual result: namespace is missing in the deploy to kubernetes page, deploying leads to error: ECONRESET

Relevant log output

No response

Additional context

@cbr7 If you could please also add some specification of your findings.

@odockal I've had the same experience with the only exception being that after I created a kind cluster on the machine also and switched to the kind context, upon switching back to minikube context the cluster was operational at that point. So I suspect that changing the context fixes/updates the namespace correctly.
