Helm installation failure

This topic provides solutions for installation problems related to Helm.

Ingress-controller port already allocated

This error occurs when there is an attempt to deploy multiple helm-charts in the same cluster or when the ingress-controller service is already mapped to port 32500. For example:

# helm install harness-release ./ -n harness -f override.yaml
Error: INSTALLATION FAILED: Service "harness-ingress-controller" is invalid: spec.ports[0].nodePort: Invalid value: 32500: provided port is already allocated

The fix for this issue is included in helm-charts and is as follows:

  • Set .Values.global.ingress.nginx.httpNodePort to 32501, or to any unused port.

  • Set .Values.global.ingress.nginx.httpsNodePort to 32506, or to any unused port.

Example

global:
nginx:
controller:
annotations: {}
create: true
httpNodePort: 32501
httpsNodePort: 32506
