Pipeline fail in project with no CI configuration

The error is still happening.

Repro steps:

  • invite new user to group project (using free plan)
  • Our project has .gitlab-ci.yml, the user push to the MR but it shouldn’t trigger the pipeline because of the rules (only trigger for specific branch)

Edit: The pipeline has no jobs inside it

Hi @tijani.fadhilah,

can you please share the .gitlab-ci.yml file content to allow re-producing the problem? Or create a test project with a smaller subset of the config, show casing the error. Thanks!

Cheers,
Michael

We’re also facing this issue with a new member, it gets triggered with no jobs with every commit.
CI is configured to be triggered when tag is pushed.
Here is the file:

variables:
  ANDROID_COMPILE_SDK: "29"
  ANDROID_BUILD_TOOLS: "29.0.3"
  ANDROID_SDK_TOOLS:   "6609375"

cache:

  paths:
    - .gradle/

before_script:
  - apt-get update && apt-get install -y curl git jq
  - export GRADLE_USER_HOME=$(pwd)/.gradle
  - chmod +x ./gradlew

stages:
  - build

assembleDebug:
  stage: build
  only:
    - tags
  script:
    - ./gradlew assembleDebug

Hi @dnsmichi sorry for the late response, didn’t notice the email notification.

Here’s the part of the gitlab-ci.yml

The error is pretty much the same with screenshot provided by @sambit1 above

EDIT:
Revising my comment above.

The expected condition is the pipeline is triggered but shouldn’t show any errors. Because pipelines triggered by the older member of the group won’t show any errors

We have the same issue, our team member created an account on June 7th and only their MRs are causing the problem, all other team members have older accounts.

Is there anything being done about it?
Our user cannot cannot get verified via creditcard because they do not have one - it is not common outside US!

Thank you

I just encountered the issue with a user newly added to the project. The only unusual think I noticed is that 2FA is enforced on the project but the user has not yet set it up.

affected pipeline

One option to consider here would be to do identity verification via Svipe https://svipe.com and Openid Connect. No credit card required, only a passport, national identity card or biometric drivers license. Check out the docs here https://developer.svipe.com - it is super simple.

This issue has appeared on my account, with a new user. Can anyone confirm if 2FA setup helped to solve the issue? Otherwise I will need to ask him to enter his credit card details… which seems ridiculous.

Did you find any solution for this ?

Not here - considering moving over to GitHub… (but would prefer to stay on GitLab if this issue can be resolved)

Same issue here, any solution?

Solved, the problem was in my yml file.

We are also having this issue with only one of our devs across multiple projects. We all have 2FA enabled and I can’t see any other configuration differences with his account.

It was fixed for like 2 months, but yesterday it happened again to the relatively new user.

This is affecting us as well.

Any fix for this one yet? It’s literally affecting us a big time!

Thanks for this - this has solved my problem. Once I validated my card, I was able to execute jobs.

The error is still happening.

Repro steps:

  • invite new user to group project (using our official account We have 5000 minutes )

Problem
The pipeline failed due to the user not being verified

It’s causing a big problem for us !

We are running a short survey on potential alternate methods to validate accounts on free plans (other than credit or debit cards).

If interested, please fill it out here: https://forms.gle/jaqdocq6as24umdp8

Hi, I’m facing this problem as well, I created this account less than a month earlier and I don’t have any gitlab-ci.yml file in the project repo, can you please help me resolve it?
