Fix “mgsconfig executable file not found in $PATH” error during Kubernetes agent Helm chart deployment

When you deploy the Kubernetes agent using a Helm chart, you may encounter the following error:

ERROR -- krm: exiting on error: config::bootstrap: mgsconfig command failed: exec: "mgsconfig": executable file not found in $PATH

This issue typically occurs when you deploy in an OpenShift cluster without enabling the required OpenShift extension. Because the extension is disabled, the deployment process cannot locate the mgsconfig executable, which causes the installation to fail.

Follow the steps below to enable the required setting and complete your deployment successfully.

Solution

Open your Helm chart values.yaml file.
Locate the openShiftExtensions configuration section.

If it does not exist, add it to the file.

Set the enabled parameter to true:

openShiftExtensions:

enabled: true

Example:

Save your changes, then redeploy the Helm chart.

Outcome

After redeploying the Helm chart with openShiftExtensions.enabled set to true, the deployment process can locate the mgsconfig executable required for OpenShift environments.
