Etcd member has no leader

Question

I am new to Kubernetes and currently setting up Kubernetes cluster with 1 master and 2 minions on CentOS 7. I am following Kubernetes' official setup guide located here.

I configured etcd as per the documentation and after I run

etcdctl mkdir /kube-centos/network

I get the following error

Error: client: etcd member http://0.0.0.0:2379 has no leader

Can anyone help me with this? I spent my whole day in it but I have no clue yet.

Providing below is the etcd.conf and flanneld config file for reference:

** etcd.conf **

#[member]

ETCD_NAME=default
ETCD_DATA_DIR="/var/lib/etcd/default.etcd"
#ETCD_WAL_DIR=""
#ETCD_SNAPSHOT_COUNT="10000"

# if you use different ETCD_NAME (e.g. test), set ETCD_INITIAL_CLUSTER value for this name, i.e. "test=http://..."

#ETCD_PEER_KEY_FILE=""
#ETCD_PEER_CLIENT_CERT_AUTH="false"
#ETCD_PEER_TRUSTED_CA_FILE=""
#ETCD_PEER_AUTO_TLS="false"

And below is the flannel configuration on the minions

# Flanneld configuration options

# etcd url location.  Point this to the server where etcd runs
FLANNEL_ETCD_ENDPOINTS="http://node1:2379"

# etcd config key.  This is the configuration key that flannel queries
# For address range assignment
FLANNEL_ETCD_PREFIX="/atomic.io/network"

# Any additional options that you want to pass
#FLANNEL_OPTIONS=""

Thank you very much in advance for any help!

The first line of the guide states:

Warning

This guide has been deprecated. It was originally written for Kubernetes 1.1.0. Please check the latest guide.

I strongly suggest you give that a go. That one actually works with CentOS 7. No sweat.
