Gitlab-runner build error

Question

I am trying to set up gitlab-runner for CI / CD. When trying to run my build, it errors uniformly with the following:

Running with gitlab-ci-multi-runner 9.1.0 (0118d89) on web1 (27e4fda8) 
Using Docker executor with image meteorhacks/meteord:onbuild ...

fatal: unable to access 'http://gitlab-ci-token:[email protected]/foo/bar.git/': 
Failed to connect to gitlab.foo.bar.net port 80: Operation timed out ERROR: Job failed: exit code 1

The odd part is that, from the runner box, I can run:

wget http://gitlab-ci-token:[email protected]/foo/bar.git/

This works with absolutely no timeout. So I don't know how to debug a network timeout if I can't reproduce it myself!

My setup had both gitlab and the gitlab-runner in docker containers. My gitlab had a static local ip and was in a custom docker network with the gitlab-runner.

I was having a similar problem, until I realized my gitlab runners were spawned in the default bridge network and thus didn't see my gitlab's address.

I fixed the problem simply by adding:

network_mode = "network_name" (ie. gitlab_default)

to my runners config.toml.

Hope this helps!

"until I realized my gitlab runners were spawned in the default bridge network". Damn, if somebody told me that, I wouldn't have wasted all my Saturday on it. Thanks!

Thank you! After hours of googling it helped me. I am using gitlab with jwilder/nginx-proxy and runners couldn't connect to gitlab. But network_mode = "proxy" solved the problem
