Infinite build after container update and restart

d0x2f · February 4, 2018, 2:07am

Gitter is down so I hope it’s appropriate to post here.

I have a build stuck in an infinite loop.
What likely caused this is restarting drone while this build was running.
I did:

$ docker-compose pull
$ docker-compose up -d

Here’s a link to a censored version of the .drone.yml:

.drone.yml

workspace:
  base: /build

pipeline:

  dbnode1:
    detach: true
    image: mysql/mysql-cluster:7.5
    commands:
      - sleep 5

Here are some screenshots showing the symptoms.

Let me know what other information you might need.

If you restart the agent while a build is running, it may get stuck in a zombie state, similar to a zombie linux process. You can use the drone kill command to kill a zombie build. You can search discourse for more details about the kill command.

Fantastic that worked, thank you!

Heads up though, the kill command isn’t listed in the drone cli help text.
