Creating node pool error

[vinyan]

When I try to create a node pool in GKE it returns the following: Failed precondition: failed to check status for "4252*****-compute@developer.gserviceaccount.com"; Verify if principal exists and is valid. I already checked the existence of this svc account, and it does existe, and I also gave it owner permission, but the error persists, why?

Hi @vinyan,

Welcome to the Google Cloud Community!

Please verify if the service account is disabled, if it is, please enable it. You can do so by following this documentation - Disable and enable service accounts.

Also, what method are you using when creating a node pool? Is it through gcloud or the console?

Thank you.
