Spike: Investigate why scheduled pipelines are failing
Problem to Solve
As identified by @kwiebers in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/quality/team-tasks/-/issues/886#note_577147083:
Do you have anyone who can help us troubleshoot why scheduled master pipelines would be failing on
gitlab-org/gitlab-foss
? We aren't sure why the pipeline hasn't triggered and there's no errors surfaced from what we can tell.This is causing the cache to not be rebuilt so all the master pipelines when code syncs are building everything fresh.
There are a number of issues in our CI backlog around failing scheduled pipelines. It would be good to also understand whether they're related:
Expectations of this Spike
- Investigate why scheduled pipelines are failing on
gitlab-foss
(on master) - Identify ways to solve the referenced issues why scheduled pipelines fail silently, and whether there's a broader problem
- Create a proposal to outline:
- Ways to fix the failing scheduled pipelines issue for
gitlab-foss
- How to resolve the above issues, and also propose ways to mitigate the silent failures (e.g. notifications). Please tag UX as needed to get their input on the notifications - in-app or email, etc.
