@NileshGule I am still getting the same error
Readiness probe failed: HTTP probe failed with statuscode: 500

Use this link to resolve https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71843068/metrics-server-is-currently-unable-to-handle-the-request
kubectl edit deployments.apps -n kube-system metrics-server
Resolved by editing the deployment yaml files and adding the hostNetwork: true after the dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
save the file and wait for a min and then check the kubectl top no

you made it .

everything worked perfectly but when I proceeded with kubectl top nodes it showed the error: Metrics API not available
Normal Created 3m28s kubelet Created container metrics-server
Normal Started 3m28s kubelet Started container metrics-server
