Changes at TravisCI- affecting open source

[Cyclonit]

I'll hook up one of my servers following your guide this afternoon.

[PrzemoF]

Thanks! I didn't figure out why the tests fail, but building should work fine

[Cyclonit]

I was able to register the runner with Gitlab and create a running container using podman. However I am using Fedora and there are a few things to note:

1. You must use Fedora newer than fc32. Otherwise you will get this error:

Code: Select all

starting permission container: Error response from daemon: OCI runtime create failed: this version of runc doesn't work on cgroups v2: unknown

2. You must either disable SELinux or permit the container to use the socket "/var/run/docker.sock".


But after fixing those two issues, I get a new error:

Code: Select all

$ echo "Compiling the code..."

$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ ccache cmake ../
/usr/bin/bash: line 118: ccache: command not found

[PrzemoF]

Great! Remove ccache (both places) and leave cmake only. I need to update the executor image. Alternatively fork the executor image (you need to register to dockerhub and start using your own executor if you go that way)

[Cyclonit]

With ccache removed it built fine. The duration for the build job was 00:27:50 and the test job was still running after 1h. What kind of hardware do you use for your runner? After cancelling the job, the runner doesn't terminate. Thus there might also be a bug at play. I had to force kill the container to free up the runner.

[PrzemoF]

Good to see the build os working! 27 min is _fast_! With ccache it'll be down to single minutes. The test is broken - it produces core dump quickly. Which repo you used? I want to see the logs. I use a laptop - 16 threads, 64GB memory

[Cyclonit]

I used a fork of your FreeCAD repository on branch gitlab-v1. It appears as though the container did not produce any useful logs. It simply hung up, hogged all 10 cores and didn't do anything. When I check the logs using "podman container logs gitlab-runner" all I get is this:

Code: Select all

The test-job's log in Gitlab doesn't contain any information either:

Do you see any network traffic? There might be a few gig that needs downloading (the image).

I'll add ccache in a next hour

[PrzemoF]

New executor image with ccache pushed to dockerhub. I also added freecad to get all dependencies - I hope that might help with running the tests.

Build in progress: https://gitlab.com/PrzemoF/FreeCAD/-/pi ... /341920990

Edit: building with ccache works. At least the first build - I'm not sure if the info is stored in docker executor image, docker volume or it will be lost.

Edit2: the core dump was probably caused because I tried to run FreeCAD with normal GUI... so headless is the answer. Test in progress.. test runs, but fails on https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=60495

[Cyclonit]

After some issues with updating my fork of your GitLab repository, I was able to have it finish the test-job but it ended in a core dump. I assume that this is somewhat related to the issue you already know about.

The core part of this setup, registering the runner and having it run jobs, works fine. What are your intended next steps? Would this be the right time to register my runner with your repository?
