To clarify, editing the very first pipeline in the system (which was added through the wizard that appears on Dashboard when it is empty) also does not work. So it's not really about manually hacking the XML incorrectly. When using the Add Task to the pipeline job I instead get message "precondition failed". All of this is about a completely fresh and basically empty install (docker gocd/server, nginx reverse-proxy in front of it), so not some strange config... I've tried to make sure hostname/servername matches everywhere. Might still be a problem, but do you think that is where to look, or something else? Would appreciate any hint from devs that know this stuff.

Some reasons I've seen this happen:

If there is a significant time difference between the client (browser) and the server. I've seen this happen within a Docker server sometimes, where the time on the server is very wrong.
Browser extensions such as adblockers causing issues by changing referrers or other headers, blocking things, etc.

Those forms usually send some content related to CSRF protection, within a hidden field in the form. That needs to be sent back and will be verified. Something seems to be going wrong there.

Also, maybe looking at older issues might give you a hint: https://github.com/gocd/gocd/issues?q=is%3Aissue+request_forgery_protection.rb

@gunnarx

date command gives the same time, (but presented as different time zones). Not sure if both client and server are set to UTC internally but I'd guess so?

Ah, browser extensions... yes let me look into that and come back. Thanks for now @arvindsv

Hi, I am getting an intermittent:

Could not access HTTP invoker remote service at [https://labs-gocd-server-lv-101.labs.my-company.net:8154/go/remoting/remoteBuildRepository]; 
nested exception is org.apache.http.NoHttpResponseException: labs-gocd-server-lv-101.labs.my-company.net:8154 failed to respond

any thoughts on what to investigate here?
can someone possibly explain the process that is going on? It seems to occur at the same place: after this task is completed, and it's about to start the real work:

[go] Start to prepare mscm_Searchfunc10/38/Build/1/Build_Job on labs-gocd-agent-lv-115.labs.my-company.net [/var/lib/go-agent8]

Aravind SV

@arvindsv

It's hard to say, but it looks like either due to CPU or network saturation, the GoCD server did not respond in time, to the agent. Some instances I've seen this happen:

Uploading a huge artifact saturates the network (on the GoCD server side) and it can't service any agents.
Usually "Start to prepare" means it is about to check out materials. If your SCM repository is also on the GoCD server (and maybe lots of agents are using that repo), the git checkouts could be causing a CPU or n/w spike, meaning the GoCD server is unable to respond.

Can someone help in Test connection using git repo url

Getting error - Failed to find 'git' on your PATH. Please ensure 'git' is executable by the Go Server and on the Go Agents where this material will be used.

gunnarx

@gunnarx

@arvindsv It was indeed some browser plugins in firefox that caused errors when trying to Save any configuration change: "The change you wanted was rejected", ""precondition failed" and even something that read similar to "someone (else) changed the configuration, please try again" (I don't have the exact wording at hand). And in the logs there was the "InvalidAuthenticityToken" note.

All of this went away with a clean browser.

Super quick help and resolution. Once again go.cd shows it has the BEST support and community! Thank you for all that you do!! @arvindsv (and other great people who have answered questions over the years of using Go.CD)

Aravind SV

@arvindsv

@gunnarx Yay! Glad it helped. I appreciate you confirming the solution. It could help others facing this. Thank you.

@Jatin0597 It means what it says. The GoCD server (in this case, since "Test connection" happens on the server) is unable to find git in PATH. Usually this happens if the user the GoCD server is running as is different from your usual user. You might think you've added this to PATH locally, but the GoCD server user doesn't have it in PATH. I've seen this happen often on Windows, where GoCD runs as a service, as some kind of a system user. I've used Procexp from Microsoft Sysinternals to find the PATH to verify this. I'd look to set the PATH in the server's wrapper-properties.conf file to see if it helps.

Hello - I need to record a demo of some pipelines we use for container deployments. We have quite a big environment - is there any way to suppress the errors at the top right of the page? I can't clean up the errors as I'm not the pipeline owner - doesn't make for the best impression! GoCD 21.1.0

Hi team,
We recently upgraded GoCD to to 20.1.0 onwards which we are failing to upload config.xml via post request with 400 bad request.
We are using the following command

curl -s -XPOST ${GOCD_API_ENDPOINT}/go/admin/restful/configuration/file/POST/xml -H "Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded" --data-urlencode xmlFile@cruise-config.xml -H "Confirm: True" -u "$GO_SERVER_USER_NAME:$GO_SERVER_PASSWORD" -d md5=$config_xml_md5

Is there config.xml file size limit on post request?
or do you sugest any other way? Any help would be much appreciated as we are blocked on this.

Hi, I want add a material to trigger on gerrit changes (after a push to HEAD:refs/for/master. Is it possible without a plugin, and how?

shivani-hotstar

@shivani-hotstar

Anyone face this issue . Failed to trigger pipeline: launchable-push-report { Pipeline already triggered } . and thn this error fixes automatically after 2 to 3 min . I checked my gocd server logs nothing major find out from logs . Any Help !

Aravind SV

@arvindsv

I would check whether the underlying material polling is delayed. Once you click trigger, it tries to get the latest commits. While it is doing that, if you refresh the browser and trigger again, it'll show you that message. Till it finishes that and starts building, it won't mark the pipeline as "in progress" and so, you will be able to trigger it again.

Hi, I'm working with an old version of goCD. The online documentation refers only to the latest and the breaking changes between versions.
Do you know where could I find the documentation for a specific version ?

Hi, we are using GoCD as our ci/cd tool on Kubernetes with elastic agents. Due to the deprecation of docker as underlying runtime (https://kubernetes.io/blog/2020/12/02/dont-panic-kubernetes-and-docker/) we are evaluating some alternatives as Kaniko or Podman/Buildah to build our docker containers in our pipelines. The main option at the moment is Podman/Buildah as we think we can install it on a GoCD agent and keep most of the pipeline configuration we already have, but we found some issues... the main question here is ¿Are you planning to release a version for gocd-agent-ubuntu for 20.04 LTS?
