Check if Agent is connecting to Server

Drone Support
1

Hey guys, is there a way for me to check if the agent is actually talking to the server ???

All my agent logs is:

{“level”:“info”,“msg”:“starting the build runner”,“server”:“xxxxx”,“threads”:1,“time”:“2018-12-18T23:05:47Z”}

When I try running a new build, it does not log anything on my agent and I am afraid is because the server is not able to talk to the agent.

My server, however, logs:

Maybe I am missing something ? :X

did you follow the single-machine (i.e. agentless) installation instructions. I see references to the build runner in your server logs, which would not generally appear if you use the multi-machine install instructions.

Sorry sorry I am taking over an environment that was created already so I might be missing something.

From what I saw, server and agent have set env DRONE_RPC_SECRET so I believe it is using Multi-machine ???

4

Is DRONE_RUNNER_CAPACITY being passed to the server? If > 0 then the server runs in single-machine mode.

5

Ahhh got it :slight_smile:
I was thinking DRONE_RUNNER_CAPACITY was to manage how many pipelines you want to run in parallel. I will remove it and check again :slight_smile:

Multi-machine did not work but I will park this for now. I am gong to try to make it work on single-machine first
