I have installed Gitlab-CE on a local Ubuntu Server (18.04) and am able to successfully access it through http://192.168.xxx.xxx/
I am trying to set up a CI/CD pipeline in a repository with a sample job at this point to just test if the pipeline runs successfully. This is my .gitlab-ci.yml:
stages:
- build
- test
build:
stage: build
script:
- echo "Building"
- mkdir build
- touch build/info.txt
artifacts:
paths:
- build/
test:
stage: test
script:
- echo "Testing"
- test -f "build/info.txt"
However, when I run the pipeline it fails with an error for unresolved host that points to a wrong URL - namely http://gitlab.example.com, instead of http://192.168.xxx.xxx/ . This is the error message:
Reinitialized existing Git repository in /builds/root/sast-dast-security-testing/.git/ fatal: unable to access 'http://gitlab.example.com/root/sast-dast-security-testing.git/': Could not resolve host: gitlab.example.com
I'm using a GitLab specific runner, which executes with Docker and use ruby:2.6 for as an image. This is the runner config.toml:
concurrent = 1
check_interval = 0
[session_server]
session_timeout = 1800
[[runners]]
name = "pipeline"
url = "http://192.168.xxx.xxx/"
token = "XXX"
executor = "docker"
dns = ["8.8.8.8"]
[runners.custom_build_dir]
[runners.cache]
[runners.cache.s3]
[runners.cache.gcs]
[runners.cache.azure]
[runners.docker]
tls_verify = false
image = "ruby:2.6"
privileged = false
disable_entrypoint_overwrite = false
oom_kill_disable = false
disable_cache = false
volumes = ["/cache"]
shm_size = 0
I tried multiple suggested fixes, like adding the dns configuration line, but nothing worked.
Any help is appreciated!
I managed to fix my issue by changing the EXTERNAL_URL value in my /etc/gitlab/config.toml to http://192.168.xxx.xxx/ and then running gitlab-ctl reconfigure and gitlab-ctl restart. Apparently this was a misconfiguration while installing Gitlab and that's the URL that redirects the pipeline.
