<p>I have tried to make this work on Kubernetes on Docker for Windows and I was not able to complete it. Seems like there is some problem with Volumes in Windows. I have tried tinkering with the paths but with no real effect. After some time I noticed that there is a problem with the size of the volumes, so I downloaded the chart and added 1 Gi to PV's but then I got an error about broken paths. Anyway still unlucky. 
As I am no expert in Windows and this seems like either Windows or application problem. I can only advise to use other way of running the chart (I tested it on Minikube on ubuntu, GKE and compute engine connected by kubadm and the chart works like a charm without any additional configuration).</p>

<p>If you want to keep trying try running <code>kubectl logs pod_name</code> and follow the problems described there. </p>
