Check Preconditions: Latest 7.22 Daily failed on step QA DB tests / large-data-tests-postgresql-160 One before that failed on step QA DB tests / old-engine-postgresql-160

Both jobs are built on the same commit. All other tests cases passed both times, it is just flakiness.

The build for the manual docs is failing. The error:

[camunda-docs-manual-stage (latest, latest)] $ /bin/sh -xe /tmp/jenkins11146249271946029569.sh
+ sudo yum -y -q install python34 python34-pip
+ sudo pip3.4 install soupsieve==2.2.1 pylinkvalidator

Collecting soupsieve==2.2.1
  Could not fetch URL https://pypi.python.org/simple/soupsieve/: There was a problem confirming the ssl certificate: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:600) - skipping
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement soupsieve==2.2.1 (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for soupsieve==2.2.1
Build step 'Execute shell' marked build as failure
I think the issue might be the outdated python version. However I don't know where to find the job definition.

Reached out to infra team: https://camunda.slack.com/archives/C5AHF1D8T/p1715673409716569

Configured the job on-the-fly to temp resolve issue using the recommended change from the above Slack thread. Job passed, will create PR with permanent fix later.
