Hi,  
VM Ubuntu 20.04  
Minikube 1.19  
Docker 20  
awx-operator 0.8.0  
AWX 19

minikube service awx-service --url ----\> [http://192.168.49.2:31150](http://192.168.49.2:31150)

VM have other external ip

I’ve follow these steps:  
minikube start --driver=docker --cpus=4 --memory=8g --addons=ingress --addons=ingress-dns --addons=metrics-server  
kubectl delete ValidatingWebhookCOnfiguration ingress-nginx-admission

minikube kubectl – apply -f [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ansible/awx-operator/0.8.0/deploy/awx-operator.yaml](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ansible/awx-operator/0.8.0/deploy/awx-operator.yaml)

minikube kubectl apply – -f myawx.yml

Where did I go wrong?  
Thank you

Oh, I’ve set:  
tower\_ingress\_type: Ingress

I thought it was enough  
Than I’ve to build a ingress service manually?

I am having the same issue. I can access AWX UI from the VM I have spun it on, using the 192.168 address. But I need to expose this to the AWX service to the wider team & can’t work out how to use the VM address to access the UI.

The installation instructions don’t details those steps to exposing the UI to the outside world only how to access it locally.

Any feedback to this issue would be great as I really want to start using the newer version or I will be forced to downgrade to a pre-v18 version.

Regards
