Server Version: v1.30.1-eks-1de2ab1

What did you do?
Upgrade from 0.29.0 to 0.30.1

What did you expect to see?
A working Helm deployment

What did you see instead?

│ Error: template: descheduler/templates/cronjob.yaml:84:23: executing "descheduler/templates/cronjob.yaml" at <ne $value nil>: error calling ne: incompatible types for comparison
│
│   with helm_release.descheduler,

appears to have been introduced in a09c4d2.

I had to downgrade to 0.29.0 because 0.30.0 didn't work due to #1420.

Would you please try this and see if you get the same error?

cmdOptions:
  v: "4"

[drmaciej]

Yes, it results in the same error

[a7i]

I tried this using the helm CLI and no issues:

$ cat /tmp/values.yaml
cmdOptions:
  v: 4


$ helm template deschduler ./descheduler -f /tmp/values.yaml | grep bin/descheduler -A 3
                - /bin/descheduler
              args:
                - --policy-config-file=/policy-dir/policy.yaml
                - --v=4

What is your helm version? My Helm Version:

helm version
version.BuildInfo{Version:"v3.14.3", GitCommit:"f03cc04caaa8f6d7c3e67cf918929150cf6f3f12", GitTreeState:"clean", GoVersion:"go1.22.1"}

[jordi-crespo]

Same error for me.

My helm version is:

version.BuildInfo{Version:"v3.7.0", GitCommit:"eeac83883cb4014fe60267ec6373570374ce770b", GitTreeState:"clean", GoVersion:"go1.16.8"}

[shahar-h]

It works for helm >= 3.8.0.

[a7i]

Given that Helm v3.7.0 is almost 3 years old, we can close this issue? Thoughts @drmaciej and @jordi-crespo ?

[drmaciej]

I'm on Helm 3.15.3, but it turns out it wasn't the issue. The issue was in an old Terraform provider for Helm - I upgraded that to latest and the issue is now resolved.

Thanks for helping!
