Error on deploy stage of CICD Run

[MUR-SDP]

Good day...

As per Freddy, I am creating this as a new issue. When running the CICD action on our AL-Go environment we get the following error:

Error: Deploying to QA failed. Exception calling "GetResult" with "0" argument(s): "An error occurred while sending the request." Error: Process completed with exit code 1.

We have two apps in the repo of which one is quite big, about 1.5mb. The pipeline publishes this first (base) app but doesn't install it. It errors before or while installing the app.

I am able to install the app from the Extension Management Page as well as publish and install the second app in the repo without issues.

The first run I did, this did work correctly....

Herewith a screenshot of the action:

Thanks very much...

[freddydk]

Is this a very large app? How much time does it take before it throws this error? (show timestamps)

[MUR-SDP]

It is quite large... about 1.5mb.

Looks like the deploy step takes 5 minutes and 8 seconds.

[freddydk]

Or rather - it fails after 5 minutes and 8 seconds :-)

5 minutes = 300 seconds is a default timeout in many places.

But in this case, it should use an infiniteTimeOut during publish to dev endpoint (https://github.com/microsoft/navcontainerhelper/blob/b2410696c2c9ce68b63f3ef1a65c0c09d0c58ed1/AppHandling/Publish-NavContainerApp.ps1#L211)

If I can get the app and try this myself, I can troubleshoot and see where the timeout is - I haven't been able to repro this myself.

[MUR-SDP]

Yes :)

I just noticed that the app installed on the QA environment has scope of DEV. I think this might be the issue... I am going to try to uninstall it and replace it manually with the PTE app and then run the pipeline again. If this doesn't work, we can look at sending the app.

In the preview version of AL-Go, you can specify "scope": "PTE" in the deployment settings (released yesterday)

If it works with PTE, then we know we have a bug when deploying to dev endpoint - I might not be able to fix it though.

Ok... I'll see now if it works... on another note... Does the CICD always re-install all apps or will it only install apps that were modified? So if I do dev on another app in the repo that has a dependency on this large app, but I haven't modified the large app, will it re-install all apps in the repo, or just the app that I have modified?

[freddydk]

When doing PTE install - it should check the version numbers before installing. But - if the app is re-built - it gets re-installed. If the app comes as a dependency from another repo (same version) - it should not be re-installed.

Hope that makes sense.

Freddy, I want to do one more test but it will only be on monday... I'll get back to you during the day on monday. Thanks for the help.

[freddydk]

You can mail a download link to freddyk at microsoft dot com I will contact you on email if I have further questions.

thanks

[freddydk]

Let me know here when you have sent something, thanks

[MUR-SDP]

Any suggestions on where I can upload it or can I zip and attach to the mail?

[freddydk]

An attachment will probably be blocked. A Onedrive link or maybe create a new private github repo, invite me (freddydk) and upload the binary (haven't tried that)

[MUR-SDP]

Ok thanks

[MUR-SDP]

Ok... I have shared two apps.... the one we are struggling with is the "Base Application". The "CRM" application is dependent on the Base. The CICD should publish both.

[freddydk]

Thanks - what localization/country is your sandbox environment?

[MUR-SDP]

Everything's W1.

[freddydk]

Your QA environment must be some kind of country right? you cannot install W1 in an online environment?

[MUR-SDP]

We are an international company and our BC team is based in South Africa. Because we have people connecting from all over the world we installed our online environment in Ireland.

Ireland has no localised version so we use W1.

[freddydk]

My question is really - what do I need to select here:

W1 is not a country code.

I guess it is not GB - is it ZA?

[MUR-SDP]

You can select IE

[freddydk]

Tried this - I am unable to reproduce this problem. Furthermore - my publishing only takes 1-2 minutes and not 5 - have no idea why that can take so much time for you. Do you have a very slow internet connection?

[freddydk]

@MUR-SDP - FYI, I will be out on vacation for the next 15 days and won't be as responsive on this topic - I was unable to repro the problem, but will continue to look for reasons why this fails when back.

[MUR-SDP]

Thanks very much Freddy. I will check our internet speeds. We have a very fast connection but there has been many undersea cable issues between South Africa and the rest of the world lately that may still affect this.

I will also try different connections and let you know.

Our publish from VS Code to cloud sandbox also takes very long.

We are able to upload manually so please enjoy your holiday and thanks once again.

[MUR-SDP]

Hi Freddy, I don't expect replies until you are back but will post findings here in the meantime.

I have run the CICD from an Azure VM which would take all internet speed issues out of the picture, but the time was still over 5 minutes. I then created a new QA Sandbox with Cronus data and it ran through instantly.... it seems using a copy of Production as a Sandbox contains too much data and lengthens the publishing process which then times out at 5 minutes. I suppose there's no way to increase the timeout so the only option is to scale down the database....

I'll have a look if I publish to a production environment if that changes things... anyway... I will close this one...

Thanks again for your awesome support...
