The narayana-spring-boot quickstart aligns to the community version of openshift client instead of the fuse version built as part of the kubernetes-client version.
The following extracts from the pom are relevent:
<properties> <openshift-client.version>3.1.8</openshift-client.version> </properties> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>io.fabric8</groupId> <artifactId>openshift-client</artifactId> <version>${openshift-client.version}</version> </dependency> </dependencies>
