Error: watch closed before UntilWithoutRetry timeout

Posted on July 3, 2019

Hello Developers,

We are working on a requirement of deploying our application using Helm,

Our chart includes a job (pre-install hook) which setups the DB and which is fairly time consuming(takes around 1 hr to complete). When we install the chart with a timeout of 7800 sec (2 hrs approx). The helm times out with the following error.

Error: watch closed before UntilWithoutRetry timeout

Gone through various blogs on Git hub and seen similar issues logged. But couldn’t find any concrete solution.

Has anyone come accross such situation while using Helm.

PS : Tried with latest available version of Helm/Tiller and Kubernetes.

@amolai Did you figure out a solution? I am in the same boat. Just raised an issue with helm if you are interested. https://github.com/helm/helm/issues/6160

Heya,

I can see the issue is related to a specific Helm version. In such a case, upgrading HELM should resole it for you.
