wait what i'd add a proper readiness/startup probe setup to your base Helm chart sooo every team gets sane defaults instead of fixing this per cron job.

Missing config is a top cause: a ConfigMap or Secret key that doesn't exist, a wrong env var name, or the app can't reach its database at startup and exits. Compare kubectl get pod <pod o yaml env section with what the app expects. worked…

For debugging, override the command to keep the container alive (command: ["sleep", "3600"]) and kubectl exec in to run the entrypoint by hand. Or use kubectl debug with an ephemeral container if your cluster supports it. fingers crossed 🤞
