helm chart v0.1.1 fails to install with default values.yaml

[hollanbm]

What's wrong?

https://github.com/grafana/alloy/blob/main/operations/helm/charts/alloy/charts/crds/crds/monitoring.grafana.com_podlogs.yaml

The CustomResourceDefinition "podlogs.monitoring.grafana.com" is invalid: status.storedVersions[0]: Invalid value: "v1alpha1": must appear in spec.versions

Steps to reproduce

https://grafana.com/docs/alloy/latest/get-started/install/kubernetes/

I am working on standing up the grafana stack on my cluster.

I installed these charts first. grafana/loki -- chart v6.4.2 grafana/promtail -- chart v6.15.5

I have not (yet) installed prometheus, or any other grafana helm charts.

upon installing grafana/alloy chart v0.1.1 (with default values) I get the following error when the CRD's are installed.

The CustomResourceDefinition "podlogs.monitoring.grafana.com" is invalid: status.storedVersions[0]: Invalid value: "v1alpha1": must appear in spec.versions

In order to troubleshoot, I deleted the helm chart, and attempted to manually install the crds.yaml

Thats when I received the same error, and realized what was happening.

Facing the exact same problem while trying to install Alloy Helm chart 0.1.1.

[hainenber]

It seems the similar CRD created in Loki chart is the culprit for the conflict here. We probably have to switch Loki's self-monitoring from Agent to Alloy in the long run.

I managed to dig out this workaround in another thread. Hope this helps out!

[behdadkh]

Thanks @hainenber this indeed helped me towards the right direction.

I could successfully install Alloy Helm 0.1.1 along Loki Helm 5.47.2, I had to also set the test.enabled to false for Loki as well. Also, manually delete the:

kubectl delete crds grafanaagents.monitoring.grafana.com podlogs.monitoring.grafana.com

Then re-syncing the Alloy (via Argocd) went through successfully.
