CRDS is not install

[PauloJFCabral]

Describe the bug

I'm trying to instal de helm chart of ArgoCD with the options in values crds.install=true but it's failed because the argocd needs the crds and those are not installed.

Related helm chart

argo-cd

Helm chart version

9.3.1

To Reproduce

values:

....
crds:
  install: true
....

helm upgrade --install argocd argo/argo-cd -f values.yaml --version 9.3.4 --namespace argocd

Expected behavior

The helm chart should be install all the crds resource without getting the following error:

Release "argocd" does not exist. Installing it now.
Error: unable to build kubernetes objects from release manifest: resource mapping not found for name: "default" namespace: "argocd" from "": no matches for kind "AppProject" in version "argoproj.io/v1alpha1"
ensure CRDs are installed first

I could install argo-cd Helm Chart as below.
*I skipped adding -f values.yaml for helm upgrade command since the default value of crds.install is true.

$ k delete ns argocd                                                                                                                                                                            (⎈|kind-kind:N/A)

NAMESPACE: argocd
STATUS: deployed
REVISION: 1
TEST SUITE: None
NOTES:
In order to access the server UI you have the following options:

1. kubectl port-forward service/argocd-server -n argocd 8080:443

    and then open the browser on http://localhost:8080 and accept the certificate

2. enable ingress in the values file `server.ingress.enabled` and either
      - Add the annotation for ssl passthrough: https://argo-cd.readthedocs.io/en/stable/operator-manual/ingress/#option-1-ssl-passthrough
      - Set the `configs.params."server.insecure"` in the values file and terminate SSL at your ingress: https://argo-cd.readthedocs.io/en/stable/operator-manual/ingress/#option-2-multiple-ingress-objects-and-hosts


After reaching the UI the first time you can login with username: admin and the random password generated during the installation. You can find the password by running:

kubectl -n argocd get secret argocd-initial-admin-secret -o jsonpath="{.data.password}" | base64 -d

(You should delete the initial secret afterwards as suggested by the Getting Started Guide: https://argo-cd.readthedocs.io/en/stable/getting_started/#4-login-using-the-cli)
