Bug: Installation Guide for Google Cloud

[mrappard]

Describe the bug

At section 4 of (https://surrealdb.com/docs/surrealdb/deployment/google)

Connect to the cluster and define the initial credentials:

$ export SURREALDB_URL=http://$(kubectl get ingress surrealdb-tikv -o json | jq -r .status.loadBalancer.ingress[0].ip)
$ surreal sql -e $SURREALDB_URL
> DEFINE USER root ON ROOT PASSWORD 'StrongSecretPassword!' ROLES OWNER;

There was a problem with the database: There was a problem with the database: IAM error: Not enough permissions to perform this action

Verify you can connect to the database with the new credentials:
$ surreal sql -u root -p 'StrongSecretPassword!' -e $SURREALDB_URL
> INFO FOR ROOT
[{ namespaces: { }, users: { root: "DEFINE USER root ON ROOT PASSHASH '...' ROLES OWNER" } }]

You get an error, would it be possible to update the tutorial or can someone explain what I should do.

Steps to reproduce

Follow the Tutorial at (https://surrealdb.com/docs/surrealdb/deployment/google)

Expected behaviour

The new Password to be created

Hey @mrappard thanks for opening this issue. I am assuming you are on >=2.0 . This is caused by a known issue with our helm chart and it's being addressed in these two PRs: surrealdb/helm-charts#9 & surrealdb/helm-charts#11.

Please bear with us as we address this issue.
