I'm new in kubernetes world, so forgive me if i'm writing mistake. I'm trying to deploy kubernetes dashboard

My cluster is containing three masters and 3 workers drained and not schedulable in order to install dashboard to masters nodes :

[root@pp-tmp-test20 ~]# kubectl get nodes

NAME            STATUS                     ROLES    AGE    VERSION
pp-tmp-test20   Ready                      master   2d2h   v1.15.2

pp-tmp-test25   Ready,SchedulingDisabled   worker   36h    v1.15.2

I'm trying to deploy kubernetes dashboard via this url : 

[root@pp-tmp-test20 ~]# kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/dashboard/v1.10.1/src/deploy/recommended/kubernetes-dashboard.yaml

  • After this, a pod kubernetes-dashboard-5698d5bc9-ql6q8 is scheduled on my master node pp-tmp-test20/172.31.68.220

1/ On my master I start the proxy

[root@pp-tmp-test20 ~]# kubectl proxy
Starting to serve on 127.0.0.1:8001

2/ I launch firefox with x11 redirect from my master and hit this url

http://localhost:8001/api/v1/namespaces/kube-system/services/https:kubernetes-dashboard:/proxy/#!/login

this is the error message I get in the browser

Error: 'dial tcp 10.244.0.7:8443: connect: no route to host'
Trying to reach: 'https://10.244.0.7:8443/'

In the same time i got these errors from the console where I launched the proxy

I0814 16:10:05.836114   20240 log.go:172] http: proxy error: context canceled

but after refresh n times (randomly) the browser I'm able to reach the login interface to enter the token (created before)

Dashboard_login

But... the same error occur again

Dashboard_login_error

After hit n times the 'sign in' button I'm able to get the dashboard.. for few seconds.

dashboard_interface_1

dashboard_interface_2

after that the dashboard start to produce the same errors when I'm am exploring the interface:

dashboard_interface_error_1

dashboard_interface_error_2

I looked the pod logs, we can see some trafic :

What I'm doing wrong ? Could you please tell me some investigating way ?

EDIT :

my service account that I used 

# cat dashboard-adminuser.yaml

apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: admin-user
  namespace: kube-system

It seams heapster is deprecated with kubernetes in favor of metrics-server: Support metrics API #2986 & Heapster Deprecation Timeline .

I have deployed a dashboard that use heapster. This dashboard version is not compatible with my kubernetes version (1.15). So possible way to resolve the issue: install dashboard v2.0.0-beta3

# kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/dashboard/v2.0.0-beta3/aio/deploy/recommended.yaml
