hello I have installed this helm chart :

> <https://github.com/elastic/helm-charts/tree/main/elasticsearch>
>
> //github.com/elastic/helm-charts/tree/main/elasticsearch

I am trying to enable the security on it so I did what's recommanded in the documentation :

`kubectl create secret generic elastic-credentials --from-literal=password=changeme --from-literal=username=elastic`

> Error from server (AlreadyExists): secrets "elastic-credentials" already exists

`kubectl create secret generic elastic-certificates --from-file=elastic-certificates.p12`

> Error from server (AlreadyExists): secrets "elastic-certificates" already exists

> make  
> kubectl delete secrets elastic-credentials elastic-certificates elastic-certificate-pem || true &&   
> vault read -field=value secret/devops-ci/helm-charts/elasticsearch/security/certificates | base64 --decode \> elastic-certificates.p12 &&   
> vault read -field=value secret/devops-ci/helm-charts/elasticsearch/security/certificate-pem | base64 --decode \> elastic-certificate.pem &&   
> kubectl create secret generic elastic-credentials --from-literal=password=changeme --from-literal=username=elastic &&   
> kubectl create secret generic elastic-certificates --from-file=elastic-certificates.p12 &&   
> kubectl create secret generic elastic-certificate-pem --from-file=elastic-certificate.pem &&   
> rm -f elastic-certificates.p12 elastic-certificate.pem  
> secret "elastic-credentials" deleted  
> secret "elastic-certificates" deleted
