@gyurobenjamin
this command actually reconfigures the client as well. Not just the tiller server. I don't want my client to reconfigure. Because I have already updated version of my client and configured some repo and working with other compatible tillers in other namespaces.

Like the OP, I had this error:

$ helm list
Error: incompatible versions client[v2.10.0] server[v2.9.1]

Updating the server wasn't an option for me so I needed to brew install a previous version of the client. I hadn't previously installed client[v2.9.1] (or any previous client version) and thus couldn't just brew switch kubernetes-helm 2.9.1. I ended up having to follow the steps in this SO answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/17757092/2356383

Which basically says

Now that I had the url for the correct kubernetes-helm.rb file, I ran the following:

$ brew unlink kubernetes-helm
$ brew install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/78d64252f30a12b6f4b3ce29686ab5e262eea812/Formula/kubernetes-helm.rb
$ brew switch kubernetes-helm 2.9.1

Hope this helps someone.

Because people in my team run regularly into this problem and we cannot always keep helm client and Tiller versions in sync I wrote a handy bash function (add to your .bash_profile)

function helm-toggle() {
    if [ -z "$1" ]; then
        echo "helm client and Tiller (server side) versions always must match. Simply toggle between different Helm versions installed by brew".
        echo
        echo "Usage: helm-toggle <Helm version>"
        echo
        echo "installed helm versions are:"
        brew info --json=v1  kubernetes-helm | jq .[].installed[].version
        echo "current helm version is:"
        brew info --json=v1  kubernetes-helm | jq .[].linked_keg
    else
        brew switch kubernetes-helm $1 > /dev/null # no appropriate error handling here if someone sets something silly
    fi
}

This is the output on my machine.

$ helm-toggle
helm client and Tiller (server side) versions always must match. Simply toggle between different Helm versions installed by brew.

Usage: helm-toggle <Helm version>

installed helm versions are:
"2.9.1"
"2.11.0"
"2.12.0"
"2.12.1"
"2.12.2"
current helm version is:
"2.12.1"

v2.12.3 is stuck on installation several times:

brew install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/39532fd81f267961177d8aaeba68f7056e91f78b/Formula/kubernetes-helm.rb

This will extract your desired kubernetes-helm version to a stable tap instead of

If you need to upgrade helm and it is configured to use tls give this a whirl.

❯ helm init --upgrade --tiller-tls --tiller-namespace=tiller --tiller-tls-cert=cert.pem --tiller-tls-key=key.pem --tls-ca-cert=ca.pem --service-account=tiller
$HELM_HOME has been configured at /Users/puccinelli/.helm.

Tiller (the Helm server-side component) has been upgraded to the current version.

I had the same issue but doing helm init --upgrade at first produced this output:

`$ helm init --upgrade
$HELM_HOME has been configured at /home/ashwinchandran/.helm.

Tiller (the Helm server-side component) has been updated to gcr.io/kubernetes-helm/tiller:v2.16.1 .
`
And when I tried to install a chart

$ helm install -n monitoring stable/prometheus-operator Error: could not find a ready tiller pod
But it was solved when I enabled add-on registry-creds

$ minikube addons enable registry-creds 🌟 The 'registry-creds' addon is enabled
