Question
I am trying to check the status of a pod using kubectl wait command through this [documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/generated/kubectl/kubectl- commands#wait). Following is the command that i am trying
kubectl wait --for=condition=complete --timeout=30s -n d1 job/test-job1-oo-9j9kj
Following is the error that i am getting
Kubectl error: status.conditions accessor error: Failure is of the type string, expected map[string]interface{}
and my kubectl -o json output can be accessed via this github
[link](https://github.com/msraju2009/kubernetes-tests/blob/master/kubernetes-
json-output.json).
Can someone help me to fix the issue
Answer
This totally looks like you are running kubectl wait --for=condition=complete on a [Pod](https://github.com/msraju2009/kubernetes-
tests/blob/master/kubernetes-json-output.json) as described in your output
rather than a
[Job](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/jobs-run-to-
completion/).
A pod doesn't have the --for=condition=complete option. Exactly, what I get
when I run it on a pod:
$ kubectl wait --for=condition=complete pod/mypod-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxx
error: .status.conditions accessor error: Failure is of the type string, expected map[string]interface{}
