Description Tom Dale 2021-08-10 19:09:43 UTC

Document URL: https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.8/cli_reference/helm_cli/getting-started-with-helm-on-openshift-container-platform.html#installing-a-helm-chart-on-an-openshift-cluster_getting-started-with-helm-on-openshift

Section Number and Name: "Installing a Helm chart on an OpenShift Container Platform cluster"

Describe the issue: 
Step 2 results in 
```
$ helm repo add stable https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com/
Error: repo "https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com/" is no longer available; try "https://charts.helm.sh/stable" instead
```
When I use the suggested source https://charts.helm.sh/stable instead that step works but then for step 4 I get the warning: "this chart is deprecated"
```
$ helm install example-mysql stable/mysql
WARNING: This chart is deprecated
NAME: example-mysql
LAST DEPLOYED: Tue Aug 10 14:54:32 2021
NAMESPACE: helm-test
STATUS: deployed
REVISION: 1
NOTES:
MySQL can be accessed via port 3306 on the following DNS name from within your cluster:
example-mysql.helm-test.svc.cluster.local
```


Suggestions for improvement: 
Correct helm repo source and if stable/mysql is indeed deprecated, use a different example repo.

dperaza abai Can you please take a look at this issue?   

Also Helm CLI docs have been restructured the relevant doc is located here starting with 4.9, but entry is still the same:    

https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.9/applications/working_with_helm_charts/configuring-custom-helm-chart-repositories.html

Comment 2 Tom Dale 2021-09-08 14:17:42 UTC

Let me know if I should open a separate bug for this, but I think it is the same issue with deprecated helm chart installation. 

In step 4 of https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.9/applications/working_with_helm_charts/configuring-custom-helm-chart-repositories.html#creating-a-custom-helm-chart-on-openshift_configuring-custom-helm-chart-repositories the Chart.yaml example file does not contain the required field "version: x.x.x" . When trying to follow through the docs as stated I get 
```
helm lint
==> Linting .
[ERROR] Chart.yaml: version is required
[ERROR] templates/: validation: chart.metadata.version is required
[ERROR] : unable to load chart
        validation: chart.metadata.version is required
```
After adding "version: 0.0.1" to the Chart.yaml, the helm lint command runs fine.

Comment 4 Tom Dale 2021-11-30 20:16:13 UTC

Changing tag to 4.9 since the deprecated helm source is used in latest 4.9 docs.
