How to label default namespace in kubernetes?

Tian December 11, 2021, 7:52am 1

I deployed istio by this AWS post:

When I run this step:

# label default namespace
kubectl label default ns istio-injection=enabled --overwrite

I got this error:

error: the server doesn't have a resource type "default"

Is it a wrong usage?
