Hi,
recently gitlab has changed the policy, and now only verified accounts (with credit card) are able to use free gitlab runners. Due to some issue, I was not able to verify account.
But the issue is - for a project I have enabled shared runner and added few extra runners on my own. So I am not even able to run the jobs which use runners which I had setup, when I disable shared runners, then only I can run the pipeline. Is there any solution where verified accounts can use the shared runners and unverified accounts can use the runners, which I had setup?
Hi @aichrapawan
do you use tags properly to specify that it should run on your custom runners?
Any untagged job will be scheduled on the Shared Runners.
Hi @balonik , Thanks for your reply. Yes, I have used tags correctly and tested also, it is working fine. When I enable shared runners, it doesn’t even check the jobs, it fails before that, and it shows 0 jobs, and says you need to validate the account.
Looking at the blog it seems currently you cannot combine free shared runners and own runners for non-verified users. A user can also run pipelines without providing a credit or debit card if they use their own runner and disable shared runners for their project. I couldn’t find any more details about it.
