@mohamed It might be broken or not installed properly. Did you check the logs ? They might give some clarity.

```auto
kubectl logs -f deploy/everest-operator -n everest-system
kubectl logs -f deploy/everest-server -n everest-system
kubectl logs -f deploy/percona-postgresql-operator -n everest

```

Are the everest deployments and pod health fine and in ready state ?

`kubectl get pod -l app.kubernetes.io/name=everest-server -n everest-system`

```auto
kubectl get deploy -n everest-system
kubectl get deploy -n everest-olm
kubectl get deploy -n everest
kubectl get DatabaseCluster -n everest

```

Did you try re-deploying it again ? What docs or steps you referred exactly ?

it solved by patching the webhook mutation to false

Hi @mohamed ,

We should still look into why the `everest-operator-webhook-service` is not present because the mutation is required for features like data importers to work correctly. Can you please provide the following info:

- How did you install Everest?
- If you upgraded to 1.8.0 – how did you upgrade, and from which version?
- Which Kubernetes version and platform are you using?
