C:\build_agent\_work\_tool\kubectl\1.8.9\x64\kubectl.exe -n ***-unify create secret docker-registry regcred --docker-server=*** --docker-username=*** --docker-password= --docker-email=
error: flag docker-password is required
See 'kubectl create secret docker-registry -h' for help and examples.
##[error]The process 'C:\azagent\_work\_tool\kubectl\1.8.9\x64\kubectl.exe' failed with exit code 1
Finishing: KubernetesI've tried creating the secret with the --from-file=.dockerconfigjson=.docker/config.json, where it complains about missing parameters also. The credentials in this file are a base64 string. But, I'm filing this bug because I can't create a secret. Please make this make sense.
The variables are defined, and it doesn't matter if they are plaintext or variables the error occurs.
