Has anyone experienced the following issue with Helm repositories?
Catalog->Helm Charts is empty.
There are two 'default' helm repositories - one "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IBM/charts/master/repo/stable/" and second is 'local-charts' (https://192.168.1.100:8443/helm-repo/charts).
The only error I noticed is in helm-api pod logs (every time I refresh repos page or try to sync repos) is


2018-01-08T21:16:43.704Z 'ERROR' 'getChartsFromRepo(recursive) error: connect ECONNREFUSED 119.28.7.181:443'


I already restarted helm-api and helmrepo pods as well as kube-dns pods.


Moreover, attempt to add google repo (https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com/) fails with the same error:

  • It might be a DNS problem. Will you try the solution in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47931208/ibm-cloud-private-catalog-doesnt-display-helm-charts? – K. Alexander Jan 09 '18 at 12:57

    Thank you for you help. I fixed that issue yesterday by completely reinstalling ICP. There were two possible source of that problem: Tarball archive I put into cluster/images directory before deploying the cluster was corrupted. It is also possible that the issue was with networking - I had a bridge network configured on that VM (br0 on top of eth). I removed it before ICP re-install. – Yerzhan Beisembayev Jan 10 '18 at 14:02

Reposting your solution so people are aware there's an answer:

Same problem here. Workaround (hattip @Dave Hay) is to

  1. Make sure you have kube-ctl installed and configured on the master node: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSBS6K_2.1.0/manage_cluster/cfc_cli.html
  2. Install helm-cli on the master node: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSBS6K_2.1.0/app_center/create_helm_cli.html
  3. Add the repo: helm repo add ibm-charts https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IBM/charts/master/repo/stable/

Now you can manually search and install using the helm CLI. The UI does not update.

I faced the same problem for IBM CAM 3.1.2 and IBM Cloud Private 3.1.2 installation (offline installation). Helm charts not appeared in the Catalog page.

I solved the problem by manually deleting the below Helm charts: (Go to IBM Cloud Private web console, Manage > Helm Repositories)

  • ibm-charts
  • ibm-community
  • ppc64le-isv-charts
  • ibm-charts-public

(You can delete them by clicking the icon ・・・ on the right side, then click delete)

After all of the above charts deleted, go to Manage > Helm Repositories > Sync repositories. Then, go to Catalog, and you will find some available charts (eg: ibm-cam, etc)
