This job is stuck, because you don't have any active runners that can run this job

Today I have created a virtual machine running Centos 7, and I’ve installed Gitlab.

I’ve registered a runner on the same machine which seems to be running;

[vm-user@localhost ~]$ sudo /usr/local/bin/gitlab-runner verify
Running in system-mode.                            
                                                   
ERROR: Verifying runner... is removed               runner=aeecd5ea
Verifying runner... is alive                        runner=dab35828
Verifying runner... is alive                        runner=dd17357c
FATAL: Failed to verify runners 

This running I’ve assigned to the project is showing as ‘Active’ in the list above.

However when I try to build a project I get the following error;

This job is stuck, because you don’t have any active runners that can run this job.
Go to Runners page

I’ve specifically added the project to the runner, and when I view the runner information in gitlab it shows this;

Can anyone give me any tips as to why this might not be working please?

Try this solution, adding tags, it has helped me:
