Actual Behavior

When starting v1.0.0-beta, get the following error:

There was an unknown error starting Kubernetes: FetchError: request to https://update.k3s.io/v1-release/channels failed, reason: certificate signature failure

This only appears to occur when connecting from inside the corporate network, which uses a self-signed cert for the internal proxy. When disconnected from the internal network, everything starts up as expected.

Steps to Reproduce

Start 1.0.0-beta.1 for the first time after installation, while behind a firewall with a self-signed cert.
Receive the error shown above (and in the screenshot, below) prior to downloading Kubernetes.

Result

Expected Behavior

Kubernetes should start.

Regarding the logs, all logs lies in this path ~/Library/Logs/rancher-desktop.

Ya - that’s where I found what I posted. There was nothing in there specifically from the installation, and what I posted was from the first startup after I installed, which is when it tried to pull everything down.
