Failed create pod sandbox: rpc error: code = Unknown desc = NetworkPlugin cni failed to set up pod network
Ensure that /etc/cni/net.d and its /opt/cni/bin friend both exist and are correctly populated with the CNI configuration files and binaries on all Nodes. For flannel specifically, one might make use of the flannel cni repo
When I used calico as CNI and I faced a similar issue.
The container remained in creating state, I checked for /etc/cni/net.d and /opt/cni/bin on master both are present but not sure if this is required on worker node as well.
