Unable to perform helm upgrade (0.19.0 to 0.22.1)

[viopinto]

Team,

I have a deployment of Kafka operator using the Helm. The installation works seamlessly for 0.17.0, 0.19.0 and 0.22.1 versions when deployed independently via helm install. Also the upgrade from 0.17.0 to 0.19.0 is smooth using helm upgrade. However the helm upgrade fails for 0.19.0 to 0.22.1 with the following error,

Error: UPGRADE FAILED: rendered manifests contain a new resource that already exists. Unable to continue with update: existing resource conflict: kind: Kafka, namespace: xyz, name: my-cluster

Appreciate your help !!
