While trying to reproduce tutorial i've faced an obsolete config line (i guess) and finally i stuck on the error which is the name of the topic.

Changes i made to the vault.yaml:
lines

             - name: vault-init
                image: gcr.io/hightowerlabs/vault-init
 were changed to 
             - name: vault-init
                image: sethvargo/vault-init

After the modification of the config vault-init builds up and starts succesfully, however second image (vault itself) cannot start due to "certificate signed by unknown authority" issue, i've seen a thread with same issue (hashicorp/vault#7400), but in current version of config (vault.yaml) no similar definitions present. I'm newbie into writing kubernetes configs so i kinda stuck, would be much appreciated for the tip where to make a correction.

As a test i've run check of the certificate:
openssl verify -verbose -CAfile ca.pem vault.pem vault-combined.pem
which return OK.
