Option 2: Upgrade the Release:

If the first step doesn't resolve the issue, try upgrading the release with the "force" flag:

helm upgrade [release name] --force

This forces Helm to upgrade the release, even if it is already at the latest version.

Option 3: Modify values.yaml

Modify values.yaml: If the previous steps don't resolve the issue, you may need to modify the values.yaml file in your Helm chart. This file contains configuration values for your stack, and modifying it may be necessary to resolve deployment issues.
