YNH GitlabRunner fails on "Cannot connect to the Docker daemon"

colmoneill commented 6 months ago

Describe the bug

Context

Hardware: VPS
YunoHost version: 11.2.10.3
I have access to my server: Through SSH | through the webadmin
Are you in a special context or did you perform some particular tweaking on your YunoHost instance?: no

Steps to reproduce

created a gitlab-runner via the YNH GUI and entered the token provided by the project
self-hosted gitlab (on another machine) registered the runner
enabled the runner for that project
ran the CI pipeline

pipeline failed with the following errors:

ERROR: Failed to remove network for build
ERROR: Preparation failed: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running? (docker.go:933:0s)

full output: https://paste.yunohost.org/idosirihim.sql

Expected behavior

Runner should pick up the task and execute, in this case it involves an npm install and an npx command execution (11ty process)
CI file is here: https://git.materialsmatter.ie/colm/wilderland.ie/-/blob/main/.gitlab-ci.yml?ref_type=heads

Logs

app installation logs: https://paste.yunohost.org/raw/fihagicewo

Thank you for any help you can provide!

Best regards,

This line in the install log caught my eye, because it is the same message as my gitlab-ci error :

2024-04-04 09:05:47,429: WARNING - Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

So my belief is that 'gitlab-runner_ynh' was not starting the docker process (in my case anyway). I ran this command and my pipeline worked, resolving the issue:

sudo service docker restart

Hope this helps

Thanks for the report and your help on matrix to find out what the problem was, I tried to solve it by starting the docker service if it's not before installing gitlab-runner.

Let's wait the CI: https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/gitlab-runner_ynh/pull/105/
