I have a GitLab Runner installed on a Ubuntu server. It uses 'docker' executor.

I want every CI job which executes on this runner to use the same Ruby gems cache, to prevent downloading from rubygems.org the same version several times in a row.

There seems to be two solutions:

1. Use cache: instruction in .gitlab-ci.yml. I don't like that because I would have per-project cache instead of single cache ...

The server which I deploied Gerrit's OS is Ubuntu 18.04.05, and my Gitlab server's IP address is 192.168.0.167. I tried using replication plugin to push gerrit project to local Gitlab server. My gerrit_site/etc/replication.config file likes below:

As part of automation in gitlab ci.

I am running a terraform template and creating a linux machine.

After that, I need to run few commands on the remote machine. I am running those using the ssh remote command. But at the end, even if it is failure, it is showing as successful.

Please let me know how to setup this kind of environment. Installing any tool as a step is also feasible

I am running a gitlab runner and I want each job to put itself into its own cgroup.

I can set the gitlab bash subprocess to the right cgroup, but its children don't inherit the cgroup.

This is how I'm doing it:

   PID CGROUP

With below pipeline job, I am getting syntax error.

Found errors in your .gitlab-ci.yml:
jobs:test-artifact:script config should be a string or a nested array of strings up to 10 levels deep
You can also test your .gitlab-ci.yml in CI Lint

Some one suggested to keep the : part in double quotes but it is already part of it.

I have a gitlab runner configured in the aws ec2 instance.

For any aws deployments, we simply added the role to the ec2 instance.

But, our gitlab runner is configured in one aws account. And we need to apply aws terraform templates on a different account(not IAM, complete different root account).

How to give gitlab runner permission to this different aws account

I'm having a problem where putty's key forwarding (via pageant) to my gitlab server isn't working. I'm doing a putty session to my server, with ssh auth forwarding enabled. I see the effects of that forwarding in the environment variables on the remote system.

I have an Ansible Tower installation and a lot of playbooks in Gitlab projects. Several projects make use of vault files, i.e. they contain credentials for a VMware VCenter.

I already use Azure AD for login to Gitlab and now I want to manage roles (Regular user, Admin user) in Azure AD as well and pass them to Gitlab. Roles can be stored in the Azure Manifest, which are then recognized by the application. Is this also possible for Gitlab CE?

After upgrading GitLab to 14.7, sidekiq fails to stay running, and no jobs are running.

All CI jobs are stuck saying This job depends on upstream jobs that need to succeed in order for this job to be triggered. I also cannot push in this state.

The Problem

After a specific project runs on my CI, virtualbox hangs while trying to 'poweroff' the VM. vboxmanage list runningvms shows nothing, but ps ax | grep VBoxHeadless shows the process is still running, and vboxmanage controlvm <VMName> poweroff throws error: The virtual machine is being powered down. It will sit like this indefinitely until I manually kill the process.

The Details

We have two etcd clusters running in Kubernetes one act as primary(A) and the second one act as backup(B). We also have etcdctl make-mirror in place between these two clusters, now the problem is if we switch traffic from cluster A to B then cluster B becomes primary, and cluster A becomes the backup cluster. There is an F5 load balancer in front of these two clusters.
