Drone community not running builds

I’ve compiled the OSS version of drone, executed drone-server with the following vars:

DRONE_GITHUB_SERVER=https://github.com
DRONE_GITHUB_CLIENT_ID=...
DRONE_GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET=.....
DRONE_SERVER_HOST=..
DRONE_SERVER_PORT=:8080
DRONE_RUNNER_LOCAL=true
DRONE_AGENTS_ENABLED=false
DRONE_LOGS_DEBUG=true
DRONE_LOGS_COLOR=true
DRONE_SERVER_PROTO=http
DRONE_RUNNER_CAPACITY=2
DRONE_USER_CREATE=username:bfagundez,admin:true
DRONE_LOGS_TRACE=true
DRONE_RUNNER_NAME="default"

All goes fine with the github auth and the hooks, they come in and all.
I use this simple pipeline:

kind: pipeline
name: default

steps:
- name: test_drone
  image: alpine:3.9
  commands:
  - echo "Hello world"

Nothing happens after the push.

I could not find much documentation about the OSS capabilities to be honest.
Does the OSS drone-server version is capable of running such pipeline?
Do I need to spin an agent all the time?
Does the build count of 5k builds a year applies when I’m using the closed source agents?

Any help appreciated!

please see the following thread which provides tips to debug:

@ashwilliams1 thanks for the quick answer!
I did in fact follow all those steps but I hit a wall because I do not use agents.
I understand the drone-server should be able to handle builds, the final step on that guide by @bradrydzewski just defaults to agent usage.
I’m just executing drone-server after building it from the source.
Everything works just fine, but all builds die on ‘pending’.

@bfagundez I recommend posting your full server logs with debug logging enabled. Be sure to include logs when the server starts. The server logs will help provide a more complete picture, without which we would be unable to help triage.

I just edited my original post with the logs.

use DRONE_AGENTS_DISABLED=true to enable single-machine-mode.

@bradrydzewski thanks!!!
That flag should be part of the FAQ @ashwilliams1 shared above.
During my investigation I got redirected to that post plenty of times, but that flag is never mentioned.
Thanks for this great software as well!
