# Auto DevOps
|
||
|
||
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/37115) in GitLab 10.0.
|
||
> - Generally available on GitLab 11.0.
|
||
|
||
Auto DevOps are default CI/CD templates that auto-discover the source code you have. They
|
||
enable GitLab to automatically detect, build, test, deploy, and monitor your applications.
|
||
Leveraging [CI/CD best practices](../../ci/pipelines/pipeline_efficiency.md) and tools,
|
||
Auto DevOps aims to simplify the setup and execution of a mature and modern software
|
||
development lifecycle.
|
||
|
||
## Overview
|
||
|
||
You can spend a lot of effort to set up the workflow and processes required to
|
||
build, deploy, and monitor your project. It gets worse when your company has
|
||
hundreds, if not thousands, of projects to maintain. With new projects
|
||
constantly starting up, the entire software development process becomes
|
||
impossibly complex to manage.
|
||
|
||
Auto DevOps provides you a seamless software development process by
|
||
automatically detecting all dependencies and language technologies required to
|
||
test, build, package, deploy, and monitor every project with minimal
|
||
configuration. Automation enables consistency across your projects, seamless
|
||
management of processes, and faster creation of new projects: push your code,
|
||
and GitLab does the rest, improving your productivity and efficiency.
|
||
|
||
For an introduction to Auto DevOps, watch [AutoDevOps in GitLab 11.0](https://youtu.be/0Tc0YYBxqi4).
|
||
|
||
For requirements, see [Requirements for Auto DevOps](requirements.md) for more information.
|
||
|
||
## Enabled by default
|
||
|
||
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/41729) in GitLab 11.3.
|
||
|
||
Auto DevOps is enabled by default for all projects and attempts to run on all pipelines
|
||
in each project. An instance administrator can enable or disable this default in the
|
||
[Auto DevOps settings](../../user/admin_area/settings/continuous_integration.md#auto-devops).
|
||
Auto DevOps automatically disables in individual projects on their first pipeline failure,
|
||
if it has not been explicitly enabled for the project.
|
||
|
||
Since [GitLab 12.7](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/26655), Auto DevOps
|
||
runs on pipelines automatically only if a [`Dockerfile` or matching buildpack](stages.md#auto-build)
|
||
exists.
|
||
|
||
If a [CI/CD configuration file](../../ci/yaml/README.md) is present in the project,
|
||
it will continue to be used, whether or not Auto DevOps is enabled.
|
||
|
||
## Quick start
|
||
|
||
If you're using GitLab.com, see the [quick start guide](quick_start_guide.md)
|
||
for setting up Auto DevOps with GitLab.com and a Kubernetes cluster on Google Kubernetes
|
||
Engine (GKE).
|
||
|
||
If you use a self-managed instance of GitLab, you must configure the
|
||
[Google OAuth2 OmniAuth Provider](../../integration/google.md) before
|
||
configuring a cluster on GKE. After configuring the provider, you can follow
|
||
the steps in the [quick start guide](quick_start_guide.md) to get started.
|
||
|
||
In [GitLab 13.0](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/208132) and later, it is
|
||
possible to leverage Auto DevOps to deploy to [AWS ECS](requirements.md#auto-devops-requirements-for-amazon-ecs).
|
||
|
||
## Comparison to application platforms and PaaS
|
||
|
||
Auto DevOps provides features often included in an application
|
||
platform or a Platform as a Service (PaaS). It takes inspiration from the
|
||
innovative work done by [Heroku](https://www.heroku.com/) and goes beyond it
|
||
in multiple ways:
|
||
|
||
- Auto DevOps works with any Kubernetes cluster; you're not limited to running
|
||
on GitLab's infrastructure. (Note that many features also work without Kubernetes).
|
||
- There is no additional cost (no markup on the infrastructure costs), and you
|
||
can use a Kubernetes cluster you host or Containers as a Service on any
|
||
public cloud (for example, [Google Kubernetes Engine](https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/)).
|
||
- Auto DevOps has more features including security testing, performance testing,
|
||
and code quality testing.
|
||
- Auto DevOps offers an incremental graduation path. If you need advanced customizations,
|
||
you can start modifying the templates without starting over on a
|
||
completely different platform. Review the [customizing](customize.md) documentation for more information.
|
||
|
||
## Features
|
||
|
||
Comprised of a set of [stages](stages.md), Auto DevOps brings these best practices to your
|
||
project in a simple and automatic way:
|
||
|
||
1. [Auto Build](stages.md#auto-build)
|
||
1. [Auto Test](stages.md#auto-test)
|
||
1. [Auto Code Quality](stages.md#auto-code-quality)
|
||
1. [Auto SAST (Static Application Security Testing)](stages.md#auto-sast)
|
||
1. [Auto Secret Detection](stages.md#auto-secret-detection)
|
||
1. [Auto Dependency Scanning](stages.md#auto-dependency-scanning) **(ULTIMATE)**
|
||
1. [Auto License Compliance](stages.md#auto-license-compliance) **(ULTIMATE)**
|
||
1. [Auto Container Scanning](stages.md#auto-container-scanning) **(ULTIMATE)**
|
||
1. [Auto Review Apps](stages.md#auto-review-apps)
|
||
1. [Auto DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing)](stages.md#auto-dast) **(ULTIMATE)**
|
||
1. [Auto Deploy](stages.md#auto-deploy)
|
||
1. [Auto Browser Performance Testing](stages.md#auto-browser-performance-testing) **(PREMIUM)**
|
||
1. [Auto Monitoring](stages.md#auto-monitoring)
|
||
1. [Auto Code Intelligence](stages.md#auto-code-intelligence)
|
||
|
||
As Auto DevOps relies on many different components, you should have a basic
|
||
knowledge of the following:
|
||
|
||
- [Kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io/docs/home/)
|
||
- [Helm](https://helm.sh/docs/)
|
||
- [Docker](https://docs.docker.com)
|
||
- [GitLab Runner](https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/)
|
||
- [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/docs/introduction/overview/)
|
||
|
||
Auto DevOps provides great defaults for all the stages and makes use of
|
||
[CI templates](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/tree/master/lib/gitlab/ci/templates). You can, however,
|
||
[customize](customize.md) almost everything to your needs, and
|
||
[manage Auto DevOps with GitLab APIs](customize.md#extend-auto-devops-with-the-api).
|
||
|
||
For an overview on the creation of Auto DevOps, read more
|
||
[in this blog post](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/2017/06/29/whats-next-for-gitlab-ci/).
|
||
|
||
NOTE: **Note:**
|
||
Kubernetes clusters can [be used without](../../user/project/clusters/index.md)
|
||
Auto DevOps.
|
||
|
||
## Kubernetes requirements
|
||
|
||
See [Auto DevOps requirements for Kubernetes](requirements.md#auto-devops-requirements-for-kubernetes).
|
||
|
||
## Auto DevOps base domain
|
||
|
||
The Auto DevOps base domain is required to use
|
||
[Auto Review Apps](stages.md#auto-review-apps), [Auto Deploy](stages.md#auto-deploy), and
|
||
[Auto Monitoring](stages.md#auto-monitoring). You can define the base domain in
|
||
any of the following places:
|
||
|
||
- either under the cluster's settings, whether for an instance,
|
||
[projects](../../user/project/clusters/index.md#base-domain) or
|
||
[groups](../../user/group/clusters/index.md#base-domain)
|
||
- or at the project level as a variable: `KUBE_INGRESS_BASE_DOMAIN`
|
||
- or at the group level as a variable: `KUBE_INGRESS_BASE_DOMAIN`
|
||
- or as an instance-wide fallback in **Admin Area > Settings** under the
|
||
**Continuous Integration and Delivery** section
|
||
|
||
The base domain variable `KUBE_INGRESS_BASE_DOMAIN` follows the same order of precedence
|
||
as other environment [variables](../../ci/variables/README.md#priority-of-environment-variables).
|
||
If the CI/CD variable is not set and the cluster setting is left blank, the instance-wide **Auto DevOps domain**
|
||
setting will be used if set.
|
||
|
||
TIP: **Tip:**
|
||
If you use the [GitLab managed app for Ingress](../../user/clusters/applications.md#ingress),
|
||
the URL endpoint should be automatically configured for you. All you must do
|
||
is use its value for the `KUBE_INGRESS_BASE_DOMAIN` variable.
|
||
|
||
NOTE: **Note:**
|
||
`AUTO_DEVOPS_DOMAIN` was [deprecated in GitLab 11.8](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/52363)
|
||
and replaced with `KUBE_INGRESS_BASE_DOMAIN`, and removed in
|
||
[GitLab 12.0](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/56959).
|
||
|
||
Auto DevOps requires a wildcard DNS A record matching the base domain(s). For
|
||
a base domain of `example.com`, you'd need a DNS entry like:
|
||
|
||
```plaintext
|
||
*.example.com 3600 A 1.2.3.4
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In this case, the deployed applications are served from `example.com`, and `1.2.3.4`
|
||
is the IP address of your load balancer; generally NGINX ([see requirements](requirements.md)).
|
||
Setting up the DNS record is beyond the scope of this document; check with your
|
||
DNS provider for information.
|
||
|
||
Alternatively, you can use free public services like [nip.io](https://nip.io)
|
||
which provide automatic wildcard DNS without any configuration. For [nip.io](https://nip.io),
|
||
set the Auto DevOps base domain to `1.2.3.4.nip.io`.
|
||
|
||
After completing setup, all requests hit the load balancer, which routes requests
|
||
to the Kubernetes pods running your application.
|
||
|
||
### AWS ECS
|
||
|
||
See [Auto DevOps requirements for Amazon ECS](requirements.md#auto-devops-requirements-for-amazon-ecs).
|
||
|
||
## Enabling/Disabling Auto DevOps
|
||
|
||
When first using Auto DevOps, review the [requirements](requirements.md) to ensure
|
||
all the necessary components to make full use of Auto DevOps are available. First-time
|
||
users should follow the [quick start guide](quick_start_guide.md).
|
||
|
||
GitLab.com users can enable or disable Auto DevOps only at the project level.
|
||
Self-managed users can enable or disable Auto DevOps at the project, group, or
|
||
instance level.
|
||
|
||
### At the project level
|
||
|
||
If enabling, check that your project does not have a `.gitlab-ci.yml`, or if one exists, remove it.
|
||
|
||
1. Go to your project's **Settings > CI/CD > Auto DevOps**.
|
||
1. Select the **Default to Auto DevOps pipeline** checkbox to enable it.
|
||
1. (Optional, but recommended) When enabling, you can add in the
|
||
[base domain](#auto-devops-base-domain) Auto DevOps uses to
|
||
[deploy your application](stages.md#auto-deploy),
|
||
and choose the [deployment strategy](#deployment-strategy).
|
||
1. Click **Save changes** for the changes to take effect.
|
||
|
||
After enabling the feature, an Auto DevOps pipeline is triggered on the `master` branch.
|
||
|
||
### At the group level
|
||
|
||
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/52447) in GitLab 11.10.
|
||
|
||
Only administrators and group owners can enable or disable Auto DevOps at the group level.
|
||
|
||
When enabling or disabling Auto DevOps at group level, group configuration is
|
||
implicitly used for the subgroups and projects inside that group, unless Auto DevOps
|
||
is specifically enabled or disabled on the subgroup or project.
|
||
|
||
To enable or disable Auto DevOps at the group level:
|
||
|
||
1. Go to your group's **Settings > CI/CD > Auto DevOps** page.
|
||
1. Select the **Default to Auto DevOps pipeline** checkbox to enable it.
|
||
1. Click **Save changes** for the changes to take effect.
|
||
|
||
### At the instance level (Administrators only)
|
||
|
||
Even when disabled at the instance level, group owners and project maintainers can still enable
|
||
Auto DevOps at the group and project level, respectively.
|
||
|
||
1. Go to **Admin Area > Settings > Continuous Integration and Deployment**.
|
||
1. Select **Default to Auto DevOps pipeline for all projects** to enable it.
|
||
1. (Optional) You can set up the Auto DevOps [base domain](#auto-devops-base-domain),
|
||
for Auto Deploy and Auto Review Apps to use.
|
||
1. Click **Save changes** for the changes to take effect.
|
||
|
||
### Deployment strategy
|
||
|
||
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/38542) in GitLab 11.0.
|
||
|
||
You can change the deployment strategy used by Auto DevOps by going to your
|
||
project's **Settings > CI/CD > Auto DevOps**. The following options
|
||
are available:
|
||
|
||
- **Continuous deployment to production**: Enables [Auto Deploy](stages.md#auto-deploy)
|
||
with `master` branch directly deployed to production.
|
||
- **Continuous deployment to production using timed incremental rollout**: Sets the
|
||
[`INCREMENTAL_ROLLOUT_MODE`](customize.md#timed-incremental-rollout-to-production) variable
|
||
to `timed`. Production deployments execute with a 5 minute delay between
|
||
each increment in rollout.
|
||
- **Automatic deployment to staging, manual deployment to production**: Sets the
|
||
[`STAGING_ENABLED`](customize.md#deploy-policy-for-staging-and-production-environments) and
|
||
[`INCREMENTAL_ROLLOUT_MODE`](customize.md#incremental-rollout-to-production) variables
|
||
to `1` and `manual`. This means:
|
||
|
||
- `master` branch is directly deployed to staging.
|
||
- Manual actions are provided for incremental rollout to production.
|
||
|
||
TIP: **Tip:**
|
||
Use the [blue-green deployment](../../ci/environments/incremental_rollouts.md#blue-green-deployment) technique
|
||
to minimize downtime and risk.
|
||
|
||
## Using multiple Kubernetes clusters
|
||
|
||
When using Auto DevOps, you can deploy different environments to
|
||
different Kubernetes clusters, due to the 1:1 connection
|
||
[existing between them](../../user/project/clusters/index.md#multiple-kubernetes-clusters).
|
||
|
||
The [Deploy Job template](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/blob/master/lib/gitlab/ci/templates/Jobs/Deploy.gitlab-ci.yml)
|
||
used by Auto DevOps currently defines 3 environment names:
|
||
|
||
- `review/` (every environment starting with `review/`)
|
||
- `staging`
|
||
- `production`
|
||
|
||
Those environments are tied to jobs using [Auto Deploy](stages.md#auto-deploy), so
|
||
except for the environment scope, they must have a different deployment domain.
|
||
You must define a separate `KUBE_INGRESS_BASE_DOMAIN` variable for each of the above
|
||
[based on the environment](../../ci/variables/README.md#limit-the-environment-scopes-of-environment-variables).
|
||
|
||
The following table is an example of how to configure the three different clusters:
|
||
|
||
| Cluster name | Cluster environment scope | `KUBE_INGRESS_BASE_DOMAIN` variable value | Variable environment scope | Notes |
|
||
|--------------|---------------------------|-------------------------------------------|----------------------------|---|
|
||
| review | `review/*` | `review.example.com` | `review/*` | The review cluster which runs all [Review Apps](../../ci/review_apps/index.md). `*` is a wildcard, used by every environment name starting with `review/`. |
|
||
| staging | `staging` | `staging.example.com` | `staging` | (Optional) The staging cluster which runs the deployments of the staging environments. You must [enable it first](customize.md#deploy-policy-for-staging-and-production-environments). |
|
||
| production | `production` | `example.com` | `production` | The production cluster which runs the production environment deployments. You can use [incremental rollouts](customize.md#incremental-rollout-to-production). |
|
||
|
||
To add a different cluster for each environment:
|
||
|
||
1. Navigate to your project's **Operations > Kubernetes**.
|
||
1. Create the Kubernetes clusters with their respective environment scope, as
|
||
described from the table above.
|
||
1. After creating the clusters, navigate to each cluster and install
|
||
Ingress. Wait for the Ingress IP address to be assigned.
|
||
1. Make sure you've [configured your DNS](#auto-devops-base-domain) with the
|
||
specified Auto DevOps domains.
|
||
1. Navigate to each cluster's page, through **Operations > Kubernetes**,
|
||
and add the domain based on its Ingress IP address.
|
||
|
||
After completing configuration, you can test your setup by creating a merge request
|
||
and verifying your application is deployed as a Review App in the Kubernetes
|
||
cluster with the `review/*` environment scope. Similarly, you can check the
|
||
other environments.
|
||
|
||
## Limitations
|
||
|
||
The following restrictions apply.
|
||
|
||
### Private registry support
|
||
|
||
No documented way of using private container registry with Auto DevOps exists.
|
||
We strongly advise using GitLab Container Registry with Auto DevOps to
|
||
simplify configuration and prevent any unforeseen issues.
|
||
|
||
### Install applications behind a proxy
|
||
|
||
GitLab's Helm integration does not support installing applications when
|
||
behind a proxy. Users who want to do so must inject their proxy settings
|
||
into the installation pods at runtime, such as by using a
|
||
[`PodPreset`](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/pods/podpreset/):
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
apiVersion: settings.k8s.io/v1alpha1
|
||
kind: PodPreset
|
||
metadata:
|
||
name: gitlab-managed-apps-default-proxy
|
||
namespace: gitlab-managed-apps
|
||
spec:
|
||
env:
|
||
- name: http_proxy
|
||
value: "PUT_YOUR_HTTP_PROXY_HERE"
|
||
- name: https_proxy
|
||
value: "PUT_YOUR_HTTPS_PROXY_HERE"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Troubleshooting
|
||
|
||
### Unable to select a buildpack
|
||
|
||
Auto Build and Auto Test may fail to detect your language or framework with the
|
||
following error:
|
||
|
||
```plaintext
|
||
Step 5/11 : RUN /bin/herokuish buildpack build
|
||
---> Running in eb468cd46085
|
||
-----> Unable to select a buildpack
|
||
The command '/bin/sh -c /bin/herokuish buildpack build' returned a non-zero code: 1
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The following are possible reasons:
|
||
|
||
- Your application may be missing the key files the buildpack is looking for.
|
||
Ruby applications require a `Gemfile` to be properly detected,
|
||
even though it's possible to write a Ruby app without a `Gemfile`.
|
||
- No buildpack may exist for your application. Try specifying a
|
||
[custom buildpack](customize.md#custom-buildpacks).
|
||
|
||
### Pipeline that extends Auto DevOps with only / except fails
|
||
|
||
If your pipeline fails with the following message:
|
||
|
||
```plaintext
|
||
Found errors in your .gitlab-ci.yml:
|
||
|
||
jobs:test config key may not be used with `rules`: only
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This error appears when the included job’s rules configuration has been overridden with the `only` or `except` syntax.
|
||
To fix this issue, you must either:
|
||
|
||
- Transition your `only/except` syntax to rules.
|
||
- (Temporarily) Pin your templates to the [GitLab 12.10 based templates](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/auto-devops-v12-10).
|
||
|
||
### Failure to create a Kubernetes namespace
|
||
|
||
Auto Deploy will fail if GitLab can't create a Kubernetes namespace and
|
||
service account for your project. For help debugging this issue, see
|
||
[Troubleshooting failed deployment jobs](../../user/project/clusters/index.md#troubleshooting).
|
||
|
||
### Detected an existing PostgreSQL database
|
||
|
||
After upgrading to GitLab 13.0, you may encounter this message when deploying
|
||
with Auto DevOps:
|
||
|
||
```plaintext
|
||
Detected an existing PostgreSQL database installed on the
|
||
deprecated channel 1, but the current channel is set to 2. The default
|
||
channel changed to 2 in of GitLab 13.0.
|
||
[...]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Auto DevOps, by default, installs an in-cluster PostgreSQL database alongside
|
||
your application. The default installation method changed in GitLab 13.0, and
|
||
upgrading existing databases requires user involvement. The two installation
|
||
methods are:
|
||
|
||
- **channel 1 (deprecated):** Pulls in the database as a dependency of the associated
|
||
Helm chart. Only supports Kubernetes versions up to version 1.15.
|
||
- **channel 2 (current):** Installs the database as an independent Helm chart. Required
|
||
for using the in-cluster database feature with Kubernetes versions 1.16 and greater.
|
||
|
||
If you receive this error, you can do one of the following actions:
|
||
|
||
- You can *safely* ignore the warning and continue using the channel 1 PostgreSQL
|
||
database by setting `AUTO_DEVOPS_POSTGRES_CHANNEL` to `1` and redeploying.
|
||
|
||
- You can delete the channel 1 PostgreSQL database and install a fresh channel 2
|
||
database by setting `AUTO_DEVOPS_POSTGRES_DELETE_V1` to a non-empty value and
|
||
redeploying.
|
||
|
||
DANGER: **Warning:**
|
||
Deleting the channel 1 PostgreSQL database permanently deletes the existing
|
||
channel 1 database and all its data. See
|
||
[Upgrading PostgreSQL](upgrading_postgresql.md)
|
||
for more information on backing up and upgrading your database.
|
||
|
||
- If you are not using the in-cluster database, you can set
|
||
`POSTGRES_ENABLED` to `false` and re-deploy. This option is especially relevant to
|
||
users of *custom charts without the in-chart PostgreSQL dependency*.
|
||
Database auto-detection is based on the `postgresql.enabled` Helm value for
|
||
your release. This value is set based on the `POSTGRES_ENABLED` CI variable
|
||
and persisted by Helm, regardless of whether or not your chart uses the
|
||
variable.
|
||
|
||
DANGER: **Warning:**
|
||
Setting `POSTGRES_ENABLED` to `false` permanently deletes any existing
|
||
channel 1 database for your environment.
|
||
|
||
### Error: unable to recognize "": no matches for kind "Deployment" in version "extensions/v1beta1"
|
||
|
||
After upgrading your Kubernetes cluster to [v1.16+](stages.md#kubernetes-116),
|
||
you may encounter this message when deploying with Auto DevOps:
|
||
|
||
```plaintext
|
||
UPGRADE FAILED
|
||
Error: failed decoding reader into objects: unable to recognize "": no matches for kind "Deployment" in version "extensions/v1beta1"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This can occur if your current deployments on the environment namespace were deployed with a
|
||
deprecated/removed API that doesn't exist in Kubernetes v1.16+. For example,
|
||
if [your in-cluster PostgreSQL was installed in a legacy way](#detected-an-existing-postgresql-database),
|
||
the resource was created via the `extensions/v1beta1` API. However, the deployment resource
|
||
was moved to the `app/v1` API in v1.16.
|
||
|
||
To recover such outdated resources, you must convert the current deployments by mapping legacy APIs
|
||
to newer APIs. There is a helper tool called [`mapkubeapis`](https://github.com/hickeyma/helm-mapkubeapis)
|
||
that works for this problem. Follow these steps to use the tool in Auto DevOps:
|
||
|
||
1. Modify your `.gitlab-ci.yml` with:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
include:
|
||
- template: Auto-DevOps.gitlab-ci.yml
|
||
- remote: https://gitlab.com/shinya.maeda/ci-templates/-/raw/master/map-deprecated-api.gitlab-ci.yml
|
||
|
||
variables:
|
||
HELM_VERSION_FOR_MAPKUBEAPIS: "v2" # If you're using auto-depoy-image v2 or above, please specify "v3".
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Run the job `<environment-name>:map-deprecated-api`. Ensure that this job succeeds before moving
|
||
to the next step. You should see something like the following output:
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
2020/10/06 07:20:49 Found deprecated or removed Kubernetes API:
|
||
"apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
|
||
kind: Deployment"
|
||
Supported API equivalent:
|
||
"apiVersion: apps/v1
|
||
kind: Deployment"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Revert your `.gitlab-ci.yml` to the previous version. You no longer need to include the
|
||
supplemental template `map-deprecated-api`.
|
||
|
||
1. Continue the deployments as usual.
|
||

### Error: error initializing: Looks like "https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com" is not a valid chart repository or cannot be reached
|
||
|
||
As [announced in the official CNCF blogpost](https://www.cncf.io/blog/2020/10/07/important-reminder-for-all-helm-users-stable-incubator-repos-are-deprecated-and-all-images-are-changing-location/),
|
||
the stable Helm chart repository will be deprecated and removed on November 13th, 2020.
|
||
You may encounter this error after that date.
|
||
|
||
Some GitLab features had dependencies on the stable chart. To mitigate the impact, we changed them
|
||
to use new official repositories or the [Helm Stable Archive repository maintained by GitLab](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/helm-stable-archive).
|
||
Auto Deploy contains [an example fix](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/auto-deploy-image/-/merge_requests/127).
|
||
|
||
In Auto Deploy, `v1.0.6+` of `auto-deploy-image` no longer adds the deprecated stable repository to
|
||
the `helm` command. If you use a custom chart and it relies on the deprecated stable repository,
|
||
specify an older `auto-deploy-image` like this example:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
include:
|
||
- template: Auto-DevOps.gitlab-ci.yml
|
||
|
||
.auto-deploy:
|
||
image: "registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/auto-deploy-image:v1.0.5"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Keep in mind that this approach will eventually stop working when the stable repository is removed,
|
||
so you must eventually fix your custom chart.
|
||
|
||
To fix your custom chart:
|
||
|
||
1. In your chart directory, update the `repository` value in your `requirements.yaml` file from :
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
repository: "https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com/"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
to:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
repository: "https://charts.helm.sh/stable"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. In your chart directory, run `helm dep update .` using the same Helm major version as Auto DevOps.
|
||
1. Commit the changes for the `requirements.yaml` file.
|
||
1. If you previously had a `requirements.lock` file, commit the changes to the file.
|
||
If you did not previously have a `requirements.lock` file in your chart,
|
||
you do not need to commit the new one. This file is optional, but when present,
|
||
it's used to verify the integrity of the downloaded dependencies.
|
||
|
||
You can find more information in
|
||
[issue #263778, "Migrate PostgreSQL from stable Helm repo"](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/263778).

||
### Error: release .... failed: timed out waiting for the condition
|
||
|
||
When getting started with Auto DevOps, you may encounter this error when first
|
||
deploying your application:
|
||
|
||
```plaintext
|
||
INSTALL FAILED
|
||
PURGING CHART
|
||
Error: release staging failed: timed out waiting for the condition
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This is most likely caused by a failed liveness (or readiness) probe attempted
|
||
during the deployment process. By default, these probes are run against the root
|
||
page of the deployed application on port 5000. If your application isn't configured
|
||
to serve anything at the root page, or is configured to run on a specific port
|
||
*other* than 5000, this check fails.
|
||
|
||
If it fails, you should see these failures within the events for the relevant
|
||
Kubernetes namespace. These events look like the following example:
|
||
|
||
```plaintext
|
||
LAST SEEN TYPE REASON OBJECT MESSAGE
|
||
3m20s Warning Unhealthy pod/staging-85db88dcb6-rxd6g Readiness probe failed: Get http://10.192.0.6:5000/: dial tcp 10.192.0.6:5000: connect: connection refused
|
||
3m32s Warning Unhealthy pod/staging-85db88dcb6-rxd6g Liveness probe failed: Get http://10.192.0.6:5000/: dial tcp 10.192.0.6:5000: connect: connection refused
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To change the port used for the liveness checks, pass
|
||
[custom values to the Helm chart](customize.md#customize-values-for-helm-chart)
|
||
used by Auto DevOps:
|
||
|
||
1. Create a directory and file at the root of your repository named `.gitlab/auto-deploy-values.yaml`.
|
||
|
||
1. Populate the file with the following content, replacing the port values with
|
||
the actual port number your application is configured to use:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
service:
|
||
internalPort: <port_value>
|
||
externalPort: <port_value>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Commit your changes.
|
||
|
||
After committing your changes, subsequent probes should use the newly-defined ports.
|
||
The page that's probed can also be changed by overriding the `livenessProbe.path`
|
||
and `readinessProbe.path` values (shown in the
|
||
[default `values.yaml`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/auto-deploy-image/-/blob/master/assets/auto-deploy-app/values.yaml)
|
||
file) in the same fashion.
