Gitlab CI - all jobs with changes

My Gitlab-ci file looks like as follows:

scripts1:                 
    only:
        refs:
            - merge_requests
            - master
        changes:
            - scripts1/**/*
    before_script:
        - echo 'before_script'
    script: echo 'script done'
        
scripts2:
    only:
        refs:
            - merge_requests
            - master
        changes:
            - scripts2/**/*
    before_script:
        - echo 'before_script'
    script: echo 'script done'

I have put this in a merge request and no other files are changed. As expected, there are no jobs but overview says Could not retrieve the pipeline status. For troubleshooting steps, read the documentation.. There is an option to Run pipeline in the pipelines section and once you try it, it givesthe error message An error occurred while trying to run a new pipeline for this Merge Request.
