I’m not able to deploy WordPress using ArgoCD and bitnami/wordpress Helm Chart.
I have set the following values

mariadb:
  enabled: false

externalDatabase:
  host: rds-aws-address.com
  user: <user>
  database: WordPressDB
  port: 3306
  existingSecret: wordpress-externaldb-password

Enabling debugging shows the following in the pod logs

ERROR 2005 (HY000): Unknown server host ‘wordpress-mariadb’

I can’t find anywhere where wordpress-mariadb is set

I have spun up an sql pod to check network and dns resolution and I was able to connect fine.

Everything else seems fine

Information

K8 on EKS v1.30

WordPress Helm Chart:

- name: wordpress
  version: "23.0.11"
  repository: https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
