14.6.0 Deleting projects fails

Summary

Version: 14.6.0, downloaded from https://hub.docker.com/r/gitlab/gitlab-ee

GitLab fails to remove deleted projects.

Steps to reproduce

Project X -> Settings -> General -> Advanced -> Delete project An banner pops up showing that the project will be deleted.

What is the current bug behavior?

The project does not get deleted. Best case is that the repository is removed. The project then remains active as "empty shell" still showing up everywhere just like a regular project. When clicking on that project it says "No Repository The repository for this projec does not exist. This means you can not push code until you create an empty repository or import an existing one" Next to it there is a "[Create empty repository] or [Import repository]" If I click [Create empty repository] I can add files. It says at the top that the project was scheduled for deletion but could not be deleted because the repository was not found. Even with the new repository now the project cannot be deleted. The project remains in the list of projects, clicking on it now gives error 500.

What is the expected correct behavior?

The project should be deleted including its repository. It should not be visible anymore in GitLab after a few minutes.
