To Reproduce

Adding the following yaml to our git-ops test repo will lead to the crash when picked up by flux:

apiVersion: helm.fluxcd.io/v1
kind: HelmRelease
metadata:
  name: helm-mongodb
  namespace: mongo-global
spec:
  releaseName: mongodb
  targetNamespace: mongo-global
  chart:
    repository: https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com/
    name: mongodb
    version: 7.2.4
  values:
    image:
      repository: bitnami/mongodb
      tag: 4.0.12-debian-9-r5
      pullPolicy: IfNotPresent
    mongodbRootPassword: 1234
    replicaSet:
      enabled: true
      name: rs0
      replicas:
        secondary: 1
        arbiter: 1
    persistence:
      enabled: true
      size: 50Gi
      storageClass: ssd-retained

Expected behavior
No crash, the CR should be created.

@stefanprodan thanks for the info. This bug causes flux to be unusable and breaks our complete CD pipeline since all other deployments wont run.

Any ETA for a patch release? Or is there a workaround for the time being?

[stefanprodan]

You can use the latest master build https://hub.docker.com/r/fluxcd/flux-prerelease/tags I think we’ll do a patch release this week.

@IsNull official release is out, please update to 1.14.2 and everything should be fine :tulip:
