Helm installation instructions don't work #12

Closed kscarlett closed 3 years ago

kscarlett commented 3 years ago

I'm not sure if this is something common, as I don't have a lot of experience using Helm, but upon trying to install following the given instructions, I get the following:

Error: INSTALLATION FAILED: file '/Users/kscarlett/Library/Caches/helm/repository/hcloud-pricing-exporter' does not appear to be a gzipped archive; got 'text/html; charset=utf-8'

This might be related to how the chart it is deployed? I have been able to install Traefik and a couple of other applications through Helm.

Hey,

sorry to hear that you are experiencing troubles installing the Helm chart. Could you maybe elaborate what steps you performed that lead to the error?

With kind regards, Jan

I followed the instructions in the readme, as below:

helm repo add hcloud-pricing-exporter https://jangraefen.github.io/hcloud-pricing-exporter
helm repo update
helm upgrade --install hcloud-pricing-exporter hcloud-pricing-exporter/hcloud-pricing-exporter

I also did a regular helm install and tried with and without a couple of additional settings (for the API key), but none of those should or did have an impact.

When I curl the repo URL (or do helm pull), it returns the following:

<html>
<head>
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=https://jangraefen.github.io/hcloud-pricing-exporter/index.yaml">
</head>
<p><a href="https://jangraefen.github.io/hcloud-pricing-exporter/index.yaml">Redirect to repo index.yaml</a></p>
</html>

I think this redirect is not correctly being followed.

For added context, I'm running helm v3.7.0.

Thanks for the clarifications. I am away for the weekend, but will have a look next week. Alternatively, if you feel like looking into it yourself, a PR or further analysis is more then welcome.

Sorry for the inconveniences.

Hello @kscarlett,

I just noticed that the documentation is actuall missing the --version parameter for the install command. If I add that parameter, everything works for me. I adapted the README accourdingly. Could you try this command again:

helm upgrade --install hcloud-pricing-exporter hcloud-pricing-exporter/hcloud-pricing-exporter --version v0.4.0-r1

The redirect inside the index.html is in there for quit some time and did not caused a problem until now. It also seems to fine for my helm installation (Windows) as well as Argo CD. If the problem persists, could you execute the failing command with the --debug flag added?
