skaffold: helm deploy failed: matching build results to chart values: no build present for

I’m trying to run the helm chart example, but seems the skaffold doesn’t install the helm chart, and delete it directly.

Please reopen this issue, I’m experiencing this issue with the newest bleeding-edge release.

With a fresh kubernetes environment and Skaffold never being executed before, this fails when running dev because of the “release not found” error. For some reason Skaffold wants to delete a non-existing release and fails because it does not exist, during initial cleanup phase. ~Mentioned workarounds do not work for me~ - the do work but only if --force=false is also provided.

eddit:// I’m on skaffold 1.7.0 and helm v3.1.2

@petr-buchyn I am experiencing this issue as well. Setting my values with the setValueTemplates property rather than the values property seemed to serve as a good temporary workaround for me.

Came across the same issue, tested it on v0.28 - v.033 This issue came up whenever i specified a namespace value inside of deploy.helm.releases[].values.

Should be fixed in #2105. We use to enforce Build in deploy flow. Somehow if the build result did not have the tag for the artifact in images, we would end up seeing this error. I will verify this again on my branch to make sure this is fixed!
