~ helm install my-seerr-chart oci://ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr/seerr-chart --version 3.5.1
Error: INSTALLATION FAILED: failed to perform "FetchReference" on source: GET "https://ghcr.io/v2/seerr-team/seerr/seerr-chart/manifests/3.5.1": GET "https://ghcr.io/token?scope=repository%3Aseerr-team%2Fseerr%2Fseerr-chart%3Apull&service=ghcr.io": response status code 403: denied: denied

Is the GHCR chart not public for seer?

helm show chart works fine for e.g. nginx:

~ helm show chart oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/nginx
Pulled: registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/nginx:23.0.0

#

So I further assume, that this is a permission issue on the end of seer-dev team.

I think you are being rate limit by GitHub API

#

When GitHub ratelimits me, I get 429 Too Many Requests

#

Can anybody confirm, if it's just me?

#

Have you try to login with a GitHub token. Because there is no public or private setting per release it's the whole package

#

So we would have a lot of GitHub issue about this

#

Well, I'm kind of already logged in, as FluxCD manages my HelmCharts and HelmReleases, but I'll try poking around the Flux Github PAT. Maybe I can give it some permission there, that it lacks...

#

Can you try on local ? Register to the registry and pull ?

#

I can try tomorrow I'm out right now

#

Let me know if it still doesn't work

tawny knot Apr 17, 2026, 8:31 PM

#

I'm trying right now

tawny knot Apr 17, 2026, 9:43 PM

#

Yes. All it needed was auth,

#

Thanks for your help.
