Following this guide: linkerd(.)io/2-edge/tasks/gitops/ I deployed linkerd through GitOps to my EKS cluster, everything deployed succesffuly except for the destination, identity, injector heartbeat, etc pods for the following reason: Failed to pull image “cr.l5d(.)io/linkerd/proxy:linkerdVersionValue”: rpc error: code = NotFound desc = failed to pull and unpack image “cr.l5d(.)io/linkerd/proxy:linkerdVersionValue”: failed to resolve reference “[cr.l5d.io/linkerd/proxy:linkerdVersionValue](http://cr.l5d.io/linkerd/proxy:linkerdVersionValue)”: cr.l5d(.)io/linkerd/proxy:linkerdVersionValue: not found I’m running EKS 1.30, all of my nodes are healthy, i do not have any firewalls rules blocking anything. This is where i’m pulling from - [https://github/linkerd/linkerd2.git](https://github/linkerd/linkerd2.git) Not sure what else to do. (had to change some of the links with (.) new user so i can only have 2 links) ---

The issue is that `linkerdVersionValue` wasn’t replaced with the actual Linkerd version. Update your config to use a valid version like `stable-2.14.1` for the proxy image and redeploy
