Error in installation of Orion broker helm chart
KeshavSoni2511 opened this issue · comments
I am trying to deploy orion broker through helm and I am facing this issue :-
Error: INSTALLATION FAILED: template: orion/templates/test/orion-test.yaml:1:14: executing "orion/templates/test/orion-test.yaml" at <.Values.test.enabled>: nil pointer evaluating interface {}.enabled
The command which I am using to install it is :-
sudo helm repo add fiware https://fiware.github.io/helm-charts
sudo helm install fiware/orion --generate-name
I wasn't facing this issue earlier.
Can you please help me to resolve it?
Thanks & Regards,
Keshav
Hi Keshav,
I just faced the same issue as you. This occurs because the .Values tree is populated based on the input provided through values.yaml, --values, --set, etc. It is not populated based on how the templates consume the input. If a value is not set, .Values has no knowledge of this sub-tree, and therefore it is evaluated as a nil object when rendered through text/template.
As you can see if you look into orion/templates/test/orion-test.yaml
, there is a value which is not found on orion/values.yaml
, the one triggering your error: <.Values.test.enabled>
. To solve this the maintainer should add the value into the chart, until that happens the workaround is to deploy orion broker with the helm sources locally, adding the value manually.
- Clone this repository, edit the file
orion/values.yaml
and add this at the end of the file (you can change it tofalse
):
test:
enabled: true
- Install the helm chart (from
helm-charts/charts
):
helm install orion-chart orion/ --values orion/values.yaml
- After this the orion broker should be deployed and running:

Hello,
sorry, I forgot to set the default-value. Its fixed in the new 1.0.10 chart. Thanks @lopdan for pointing out a solution.
