Random error - Unable to get release progress

[foliv57]

Hi,

I randomly get the error "Unable to get XXX release progress" on release orchestrator tasks during deployment.

The setup of my task is:

• Endpoint type: Integrated Endpoint
• Release strategy: Latest Release
• Filter release tag: Unchecked
• Filter artifact tag: Unchecked
• Filter source branch: Checked
• Ignore Failure: Unchecked
• Continue on error: Unchecked
• Timeout: 0

My release pipeline is just a succession of orchestrator tasks with the same setup (except the release definition name for sure).

Attached, the log: Error.log

If I redeploy the release, it pass (or randomly failed on another release orchestrator deployment task).

When the error occurs, if I check the targeted release, it was successfully deployed.

Regards

I checked the code in "/OrchestratorV1/helper.ts". Why there is no "await" at line 437 on "return this.releaseApi.getRelease" which is an async method ?

Thanks for reposting this. Wondering how often the error occurs? Line 437 looks a lot like a bug and might be related to the issue. I will look into it and release a bugfix within the next few days.

Thank you for the quick answer. In my staging environment with a small POC of 3 simple and fast releases, never. But in my production environment with an orchestration of 12 complex and long releases, it appends 2 times for 5 deployment attempts. Maybe just a coincidence but all errors append with the real time job execution log open to follow the deployment.

To give you also more context, all targeted releases have an approval and during my tests the targeted stages was in status « waiting for approval » before orchestration deployment start

Thanks for the details. If you could reproduce the issue in debug mode that would be awesome. To do that, simply add DEBUG=release-orchestrator:* to the pipeline variables.

This is now addressed in #32

Hi, I captured the bug in debug mode this morning. Attached, the log file: Bug31_debug.log

[dmitryserbin]

Thanks for that. Seems like getReleaseRetry causing the issue. Weirdly, I have never seen this before, and we're using Orchestrator a lot here.

Anyhow, I will release 1.2.6 later today, please give it a go.

Let me know if I can close this issue @foliv57

[foliv57]

At this time it looks good. No errors since the fix. Let me just wait Tuesday 28, we have a production release. If it pass we can close the bug

[dmitryserbin]

Yep sounds good @foliv57

Hi @dmitryserbin, Release successfully deployed. It's now stable with the fix. Thank you again for the really fast resolution.
