    Description

      By default the plugin is logs into the cluster as `inClusterUser` which may not have permission to manage projects.

      In this case, an error may be thrown:

      Failed to create Project with error 'Error: Command failed: "/tmp/vscode-unpacked/redhat.vscode-openshift-connector.latest.qvkozqtkba.openshift-connector-0.1.4-523.vsix/extension/out/tools/linux/odo" project create test-project ✗ projectrequests.project.openshift.io is forbidden: User "system:serviceaccount:admin-codeready:che-workspace" cannot create resource "projectrequests" in API group "project.openshift.io" at the cluster scope '

      To work around this, the user simply needs to log out from the local cluster, and log in as the correct openshift user / cluster details.

          causes

          Bug - A problem that impairs or prevents the functions of the product. CRW-1158 Openshift Connector plugin - inClusterUser does not have appropriate rights

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
