I identified another reason that caused headlamp to exit. In my kubeconfig I had cluster entries with relative path in certificate-authority. The path was relative from my ~/.kube directory. For kubectl that seems to work, but the headlamp backend exits with this error:

*** Headlamp Server ***
  API Routers:
2021/01/19 17:15:57 Failed to add certificate:open certs/gs-gollum/k8s-ca.crt: no such file or directory

After I change this to an absolute path, the backend seems to come up.

We will be releasing a new version hopefully today that fixes a bug in the server start up. Hopefully this will fix your issues, but if not, I will ask you to please provide more information afterwards. Stay tuned!
