Unable to Deploy on Polyaxon with helm v2.16.0 (No kind Job is registered for version batch/v1)

[TariqAHassan]

Describe the bug

Following the instructions here I have been unable to deploy on google cloud using GKE.

Unfortunately, the instructions provided here
no longer appear to be valid because the link for click-to-deploy single-node file server is no longer working (not clear this service is still available).

To Reproduce

1. Create a new cluster

$ gcloud beta container \
    --project "PROJECT-NAME-HERE" clusters create "polyaxon-test" \
    --zone "us-west1-a" \
    --username "admin" \
    --machine-type "n1-standard-2" \
    --image-type "COS" \
    --disk-size "10" \
    --num-nodes "3" \
    --network "default"

2. Follow the instructions provided here up to polyaxon admin deploy..., which gives:

Polyaxon could not be installed.
Error message ``helm` command ('helm', 'install', 'polyaxon/polyaxon', '--name=polyaxon', '--namespace=polyaxon') failed with exit status 1
stdout:

stderr:
Error: no kind "Job" is registered for version "batch/v1" in scheme "k8s.io/kubernetes/pkg/api/legacyscheme/scheme.go:30"

Expected behavior

For Polyaxon to deploy.

Environment

I have tried updating the client version of kubectl to the latest version and the server version to the latest version that google currently provides (v1.14.8-gke.2).

$ kubectl version
Client Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"16", GitVersion:"v1.16.2", GitCommit:"c97fe5036ef3df2967d086711e6c0c405941e14b", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2019-10-15T23:41:55Z", GoVersion:"go1.12.10", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"darwin/amd64"}
Server Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"14+", GitVersion:"v1.14.8-gke.2", GitCommit:"188432a69210ca32cafded81b4dd1c063720cac0", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2019-10-21T20:01:24Z", GoVersion:"go1.12.11b4", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"linux/amd64"}

Helm is the latest version (v2.16.0 for client and server)

Please let me know if can provided any additional information.

Hi, that's because the the distributed helm chart does not target support 1.16 yet. A fix has been already merged, and just need to be released.

You can try to deploy Polyaxon directly based on the master branch https://github.com/polyaxon/polyaxon-chart

A minor release will be pushed in the following days.

Thanks for the fast reply @mouradmourafiq.

Forgive the tedious question, but how would I go about deploying directly based on the master branch?

Edit

I tried the following:

git clone https://github.com/polyaxon/polyaxon-chart.git
cd polyaxon-chart-master/polyaxon
helm dep update
cd ../
helm install --name polyaxon ./polyaxon --namespace=polyaxon

Which fails with the same error:

Error: no kind "Job" is registered for version "batch/v1" in scheme "k8s.io/kubernetes/pkg/api/legacyscheme/scheme.go:30"

It turned out that the error you mentioned is related to a helm issue, downgrading to Helm 2.15.2 seems to fix it, on the helm part there's an open PR, so you should install helm version 2.15.2:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/helm/v2.15.2/scripts/get | bash

You will then to update tiller, try : helm init --force-upgrade and check if the server version is updated otherwise you need to run helm reset.

I had to specify -v v2.15.2 in order to force a downgrade...but with that, it worked!

Thanks for all of your help!

Great, I will close this issue and pin it as a reference for other people until the helm team fix the bug and release a new version.
