![[SOLVED] Helm Error: no available release name found](https://scriptcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/root.png)
When I ran helm install, I got “Error: no available release name found” error. What should I do?
If you get no available release error in helm, it is likely due to the RBAC issue.
While configuring helm, you would have probably created a RBAC with a service account named tiller which binds to a clusterRoleBinding with cluster admin credentials.
Here is how the RBAC file looks like.
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 |
apiVersion: v1 kind: ServiceAccount metadata: name: tiller namespace: kube-system --- apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1 kind: ClusterRoleBinding metadata: name: tiller roleRef: apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io kind: ClusterRole name: cluster-admin subjects: - kind: ServiceAccount name: tiller namespace: kube-system |
However, when you initialize helm, you would have missed to pass the service account with the init command.
Error: no available release name found Resolution
The resolution is pretty simple. You just need to pass the created service account with the init command..
Before you do this delete the existing tiller deployment using the following command.
|
1 |
kubectl delete deployment tiller-deploy -n kube-system |
Make sure the tiller-deploy deployment is deleted using the following command.
|
1 |
kubectl get deployment tiller-deploy -n kube-system |
Now, re-initialize helm with service account.
|
1 |
helm init --service-account=tiller |
Now if you try deploying using helm, you should not be seeing “Error: no available release name found” error.
