Failed to list namespaces: Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:6443

Does this occur consistently? Yes
Repro steps:

1. Create a dummy project and use Draft to create the Dockerfile
2. Use the command "AKS create deployment and service
3. Specify the output folder, the name of the deployment and the exposed pod
4. Boom error

from source code, it seems it wants to connect to some cluster. What if I can't access it from my dev machine ? What if I don't want to specify a namespace right now and just want to generate manifests ?

Thanks for reporting this @lgmorand. At the moment, the extension tries to list the namespaces on your active cluster from your kubeconfig so that it includes that in the generated manifests. However, it shouldn't be strictly necessary. As an alternative, the extension can try to list and if it fails, it should prompt you to enter your desired namespace manually.

Hello Ahmed :)

Exactly what I thought, especially because the command is already there (new PromptNewNamespace()) and the algorythm is almost ready but it does not take into account the case when the cluster is unreachable

Reopening. PR closed it but this isn't closed until we make a release.
