Hi @wangxin-trec , argo-helm is for supporting to install Argo CD but we don't take care of Argo CD itself.
This issue seems to be related Argo CD's behavior, not Helm Chart itself, so I think you can get more help in upstream.

[updated]

Helm chart version
3.9.3

Helm chart version looks too old for Argo CD v2.12.0 since we also update CRD, CM and Secret as following upstream. So I recommend you to update Helm Chart itself.
*The latest Helm chart version is v7.4.3

Hi, we are having the same issue after upgrading argo-cd Helm Chart 6.11.1 -> 7.4.4. No idea how to fix it other than rollback to 6.11.1.

I am getting the same error now after updating to v2.12.6+4dab5bd (Build Date: 2024-10-18T17:39:26Z).

We haven't seen this error previously with the earlier versions.

Comparison error is shown for the app state:

ComparisonError
Failed to load target state: failed to generate manifest for source 1 of 1: rpc error: code = Unknown desc = error creating SSH agent: "SSH agent requested but SSH_AUTH_SOCK not-specified"

There is a related StackOverflow question:

• StackOverflow: ArgoCD failing to sync with "SSH agent requested but SSH_AUTH_SOCK not-specified"

Some people managed to resolve the issue by updating to a different version. For others it was due to some indentation problem in the repositories.yaml.

UPDATE: I have managed to resolve this issue by simply removing the connection from the repositories via the ArgoCD UI, then setting it up again with a new SSH key. After this, the SSH connection started to work again. I am not really sure what caused the issue, but something might had been corrupted during the update and setting this up again has helped to resolve the issue.

Adding another posible solution just in case the sourece repo is taken with SSH (not HTTPS), make sure the project you deployed the app has the correct ssh keys or whatever configured with the SCM (gtihub,gitlab...) to be able to make the SSH connection and pull the data from the repo.
