Service events from the AWS Console:

@aheitzmann thanks so much for the details here

is it possible that the deploy did not actually work? like did you verify that the service is actually updated? when the deploy fails (usually due to container crashing or health checks failing), ECS rolls back the service to the last pervious version, which still results in the steady state message in the events. my guess is that the deploy was unsuccessful, and the cnc CLI is reporting that accurately.

[aheitzmann]

@zach-withcoherence Yes, I verified that the deployment was successful. The event logs don't show any rollback, and the task details of the currently running healthy task show that it was launched at the expected time, and has an updated revision number.

[zach-withcoherence]

interesting, thanks so much for confirming that.

will investigate, one thing it could be is that the build succeeded after the allowed timeout. that can be configured as per the docs https://docs.withcoherence.com/configuration/cnc-yml/:

x-cnc:
      type: backend
      # Need to define the URL path to route to the service
      # Unless you customize IaC to subdomain routing
      url_path: /api
      # For DB migrations, what command to run?
      # Runs in the container
      migrate: ["prisma", "migrate"]
      # For DB seeding, what command to run?
      # MUST be idempotent!!
      # Runs in the container
      seed: ["prisma", "seed"]

      # CI pipeline timeout limits before failing
      timeouts:
        # default is 20 for both
        deploy: 10
        build: 10

e.g. setting to 20 would allow 20 mins to pass before failing

[aheitzmann]

To be clear, I'm not using a CI pipeline. I run the build and deploy commands with CNC from my local machine. The build and publish to ECR succeeds. The deploy command outputs the failure message mentioned within about 15 seconds. It does take several minutes for the new deployment to reach a stable state in ECS.
