Gitlab CI get timeout from debian.org

Hi,

Since yesterday I’m getting a lot of timeout from pulling packages from debian.org and causing the pipeline fail.

Here is some examples:

E: Failed to fetch http://security.debian.org/debian-security/pool/updates/main/o/openssl/libssl-dev_1.1.1k-1%2bdeb11u1_amd64.deb  Connection timed out [IP: 151.101.2.132 80]
E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
Step 3/44 : RUN apt-get update -yqq     && pecl channel-update pecl.php.net
 ---> Running in 42e47c73a36b
W: Failed to fetch http://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/bullseye/InRelease  Connection timed out [IP: 151.101.250.132 80]
W: Failed to fetch http://security.debian.org/debian-security/dists/bullseye-security/InRelease  Connection timed out [IP: 151.101.66.132 80]
W: Failed to fetch http://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/bullseye-updates/InRelease  Connection timed out [IP: 151.101.250.132 80]
W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Sometimes it can connect to debian.org but sometimes not, seems a stability issue.

I’m usign a php7.4-fpm docker image.

Anyone having the same problem?

It’s seems that was a stability issue, the pipeline ran successfully.

This problem happens actually to me, also:

Hello,

I am also having this problem on all my pipelines for about two days.

This is a huge problem because I can no longer deploy anything using my pipelines.

Sometimes the problem is temporarily resolved for 1 of the steps of my pipeline but it’s very random. It seems to be a network issue on the shared runner.

If anybody has an idea of what to do, it would help a lot.

EDIT: As a workaround, using host network host while building the docker images fixes the timeout problems. So instead of:

docker build ...

Do:

docker build --network host

Hope it helps.

Can confirm that adding --network host fixes the issue! Saved my day, Thank you

Edit: Also using the php7.4-fpm docker image

That’s the way it works also for me, probably not intented, but as a workaround.
Thanks for the hint.

docker build --network host works for me as well! Thank you guys.
