We test Deis Workflow against kubernetes v1.6, so it's possible this feature flag was introduced at that time. There's no guarantee that the documentation is 100% compatible with an older kubernetes release. You'll likely have to scour the kubectl documentation for an equivalent workaround if you want to deploy workflow on k8s 1.5. Sorry about that!

Maybe you dont' have RBAC authorization mode enabled because is a default since kubernetes 1.6.0. So you should try something like this to get the 'stateless deploy':

helm init --client-only
helm repo add deis https://charts.deis.com/workflow
helm install deis/workflow --namespace deis --set globals.use_rbac=false

The third line may change according to your requirements.
