GitLab Runner : Failing to clone repository: gitlab running @ Custom port

we are experimenting CI/CD with gitlab. We have gitlab running at custom port and gitlab runner configured from windows machine. While running jobs gitlab runner is failing with following error .

Cloning into ‘C:/TH/builds/01522b92/0/VisualDSS/Project1’…
fatal: repository ‘http://gitlab-ci-token:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@BANWOR451/VisualDSS/Project1.git/’ not found
The system cannot find the path specified.
Checking out 52f270ff as master…
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
ERROR: Job failed: exit status 128

I am running gitlab on banwor451: 22280
How to configure gitlab runner to use port 22280

Thanks for your attention

hello, at the moment you register the runner it will place the correct url for gitlab host, including the port.
Try search file config.toml
For linux path /etc/gitlab-runner/config.toml

Thank you Ariel,
I registered with port , I confirm config.toml has proper values.
Perhaps I am missing something

concurrent = 1
check_interval = 0

[[runners]]
name = “VPS-VCP”
url = “http://BANWOR451:22280/
token = “f2cdccbedd21f8e17149b6a51903bb”
executor = “shell”
[runners.cache]

I added clone_url and it works now.

url = “http://BANWOR451:22280/
clone_url = “http://BANWOR451:22280/

Thank you for sharing the solution.

Did you do that in the config.toml file?

if you do a git clone from any other conputer or session does it have the same behavior?

Can you try changing it in the gitlab.rb file?
and find the external_url key and place the value.
Otherwise, the solution will only be for the runners.

I confirm that issue is for Runners only, we are able to clone from any other computers. no issues at all,
But i will follow your suggestion of gitlab.rb , to check the behavior.
Thanks again.

Also check the file /etc/gitlab/config.toml in the runner
