elastic image from helm chart repo I install elasticsearch and kibana without any problem and pods are standing up on kubernetes.

**[helm-charts/charts/fluentd-elasticsearch at main · kokuwaio/helm-charts · GitHub](https://github.com/kokuwaio/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/fluentd-elasticsearch)** I am installing fluentd with this helm chart. pods do not stand up, it gives the following error.

**Command for elasticsearch**

```
helm install elasticsearch elastic/elasticsearch -n efk

```

**Command for kibana**

```
`helm install kibana elastic/kibana --set env.ELASTICSEARCH_URL=http://elasticsearch-master:9200 --namespace efk`

```

**Command for fluentd**

` helm install fluentd kokuwa/fluentd-elasticsearch --set elasticsearch.hosts=elasticsearch-master:9200 --set elasticsearch.auth.enabled=true --set elasticsearch.auth.user=elastic --set elasticsearch.auth.password=c7PI1h0tWcScYxsO -n efk`

**Error:**

```auto
  The client is unable to verify that the server is Elasticsearch. Some functionality may not be compatible if the server is running an unsupported product.
