I am using GitLab Enterprise Edition 10.4.4-ee and here is some information about the same issue and it should be fixed: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-runner/issues/2570.
Any solution to this other than rewriting the dockerfile as root user?
I got this error when I try to do this in gitlab-ci.
stages:
- run_test_chrome
tests run:
image: selenium/standalone-chrome
stage: run_test_chrome
script:
- echo test
I was getting the same error then I upgraded the gitlab-runner (for me it was sudo apt install gitlab-runner) and the problem's gone

I’m configuring a very simple CI job. GitLab Runner is running on my own server, the specific runner for this project has been registered, with the shell executor, as I want to simply run shell commands.
stages:
- build
build:
stage: build
script:
- npm install
- npm run build
artifacts:
paths:
- "public/dist/main.js"
only:
- master
The job fails at the first command, npm install, with npm: command not found. I just installed npm and node via npm. If I SSH on my server and run npm -v, I can see version 8.5.5 is installed. If I sudo su gitlab-runner, which I suppose is what GitLab Runner is running as, npm -v works just as well.
I installed npm while gitlab-runner was already running. So I ran service gitlab-runner restart, thinking that it had to reevaluate its PATH, but it didn’t fix the issue.
I fixed it by simply adding this command before npm install: . ~/.bashrc.
I’m not sure why gitlab-runner didn’t properly read .bashrc before, even though I restarted it. Maybe it’s not supposed to? That would be contrary to what’s said in the GitLab CI runners docs.
N.B.: A key element in me being able to debug this was to clone the repo on a folder on my server, cd into it, and run gitlab-runner exec shell build after any (local) change to .gitlab-ci.yml. Skipping the whole commit + push + wait was a huge time (and sanity) saver.
I'm trying to run automated tests via browserstack on private server, tests are executed on Gitlab Ci. Since it is private server I need force local parameter when executing tests. When running from local PC following solution works perfectly:
Downloading binary
running command./BrowserStackLocal --key --force-local
I would like to do the same in .gitlab-ci.yml file, but I dont know exactly how to achieve this (how do download unzip and install browserstacklical binary)
This is my .gitlab-ci.yml file right now:
stages:
- e2e_testing
e2e_testing:
image: node:10.15.3
stage: e2e_testing
variables:
NODE_ENV: dev
script:
- apt-get update
- apt-get install unzip
- wget http://www.browserstack.com/browserstack-local/BrowserStackLocal-linux-x64.zip
- unzip BrowserStackLocal-linux-x64.zip
- ./BrowserStackLocal --key ${BROWSERSTACK_ACCESSKEY} --force-local
- npm ci
- npm run test:browserstack
only:
- master
tags:
- docker
- build
artifacts:
when: always
paths:
- reports/
You can execute the BrowserStack Local Binary through code using the Local Bindings for Node JS. Reference: https://github.com/browserstack/browserstack-local-nodejs
When using the Local Bindings, the Binary is automatically downloaded and initiated through code itself.
You could try executing the sample test: https://github.com/browserstack/browserstack-local-nodejs/blob/master/node-example.js from your Gitlab CI.
My CI tests pass but I'm not sure why my packages aren't being published to npm.
The snippet below shows the areas I think I may have the problem with
deploy:
<<: *defaults
steps:
- attach_workspace:
at: ~/emotion-emoji
- run:
name: Authenticate with registry
command: echo "//registry.npmjs.org/:_authToken=$npm_TOKEN" > ~/.npmrc
- run:
name: Publish package
command: npm publish
Any suggestions?
I resolved the issue. I needed to push a tag with the format v1.x.x
I built a Vue.js Vuex user interface. It works perfectly (on my laptop). I want to deploy it on Gitlab pages.
I used the file described here (except that I upgraded the Node.js version):
build site:
image: node:10.8
stage: build
script:
- npm install --progress=false
- npm run build
artifacts:
expire_in: 1 week
paths:
- dist
unit test:
image: node:10.8
stage: test
script:
- npm install --progress=false
- npm run unit
deploy:
image: alpine
stage: deploy
script:
- apk add --no-cache rsync openssh
- mkdir -p ~/.ssh
- echo "$SSH_PRIVATE_KEY" >> ~/.ssh/id_dsa
- chmod 600 ~/.ssh/id_dsa
- echo -e "Host *\n\tStrictHostKeyChecking no\n\n" > ~/.ssh/config
- rsync -rav --delete dist/ user#server.com:/your/project/path/
The job is marked as run successfully on the pipeline. However when I click on the pages URL I get a 404 HTTP error code.
What am I missing?
I was facing a similar issue when I was trying to deploy my Vue.js application to Gitlab pages. After weeks of trial and error, I have got it to work.
Seeing your above script your building the app, unit testing it and trying to deploy it to an external server. If you need it in Gitlab pages as well you have to use the pages job.
Here is my pages job for deploying a vue.js app to Gitlab pages:
pages:
image: node:latest
stage: deploy
script:
- npm install --progress=false
- npm run build
- rm -rf public
- mkdir public
- cp -r dist/* public
artifacts:
expire_in: 1 week
paths:
- public
only:
- master
Hope this is what you're looking for.
You can deploy without the pipeline. In order for this to work you have to first build your application for production. If you have used Vue cli this is done by invoking the build command. ex. npm run build
This will generate a dist folder where your assets are. This is what you have to push in your repository. For example, look at my repository.

I am working on a project to build, test and deploy an application to the cloud using a .gitlab-ci.yml
1) Build the backend and frontend using pip install and npm install
build_backend:
image: python
stage: build
script:
- pip install requirements.txt
artifacts:
paths:
- backend/
build_frontend:
image: node
stage: build
script:
- npm install
- npm run build
artifacts:
paths:
- frontend
2) Run unit and functional tests using PyUnit and Python Selenium
test_unit:
image: python
stage: test
script:
- python -m unittest discover
test_functional:
image: python
stage: test
services:
- selenium/standalone-chrome
script:
- python tests/example.py http://selenium__standalone-chrome:4444/wd/hub https://$CI_BUILD_REF_SLUG-dot-$GAE_PROJECT.appspot.com
3) Deploy to Google Cloud using the sdk
deploy:
image: google/cloud-sdk
stage: deploy
environment:
name: $CI_BUILD_REF_NAME
url: https://$CI_BUILD_REF_SLUG-dot-$GAE_PROJECT.appspot.com
script:
- echo $GAE_KEY > /tmp/gae_key.json
- gcloud config set project $GAE_PROJECT
- gcloud auth activate-service-account --key-file /tmp/gae_key.json
- gcloud --quiet app deploy --version $CI_BUILD_REF_SLUG --no-promote
after_script:
- rm /tmp/gae_key.json
This all runs perfectly, except for the selenium tests are run on the deployed url not the current build:
python tests/example.py http://selenium__standalone-chrome:4444/wd/hub https://$CI_BUILD_REF_SLUG-dot-$GAE_PROJECT.appspot.com
I need to have gitlab run three things simultaneously:
a) Selenium
b) Python server with the application
- Test script
Possible approaches to run the python server:
Run within the same terminal commands as the test script somehow
Docker in Docker
Service
Any advice, or answers would be greatly appreciated!
I wrote a blog post on how I set up web tests for a php application. Ok PHP, but I guess something similar can be done for a python project.
What I did, was starting a php development server from within the container that runs the web tests. Because of the artifacts, the development server can access the php files. I figure out the IP address of the container, and using this IP address the selenium/standalone-chrome container can connect back to the development server.
I created a simple demo-project, you can check out the .gitlab-ci.yml file. Note that I pinned the selenium container to an old version; this was because of an issue with an old version of the php webdriver package, today this isn't needed anymore.
