Installing Helm chart from URL, "Error: gzip: invalid header"

4/21/2017

I’m trying to install a Helm chart from a Google Storage URL (https://storage.cloud.google.com/bucket-name/php-1.5.tgz), as per the example A full URL (helm install https://example.com/charts/foo-1.2.3.tgz) in the documentation here, but I’m getting the error Error: gzip: invalid header.

I found that the link format https://storage.cloud.google.com/bucket-name/php-1.5.tgz was only for browsers and redirected, a direct link to the same file can be achieved using the format https://storage.googleapis.com/bucket-name/php-1.5.tgz.

I got this inappropriate error as well when I pointed to a yaml file instead or a chart directory.
