Cannot install the helm chart but when I use raw file generated by helm, I am able to install via kubectl apply.

Following error is displayed when i use helm install myChart . --debug

Installing raw file generated by helm with the following command works great but when I run helm install myChart . it gives the above error

helm install myChart . --dry-run > myChart.yaml
kubectl apply -f myChart.yaml
