Uploading artifacts failed with Internal Server Error

GitLab CI/CD

Hi you all, I’m facing this issue from few days and I hope someone could help me, thanks a lot in advance.
I’ve seen many issues like mine but no explanations about to fix this problem.

I’m using gitlab-ce:16.2.1-ce.0 with gitlab-runner:alpine3.18-v16.2.0.

I made a simple project with current CI:

stages:
  - build

build-job:
  variables:
    CI_DEBUG_TRACE: "true"
  stage: build
  script:
    - echo "This is a test!" > test.txt
  artifacts:
    paths:
      - test.txt

Job result:

Uploading artifacts...
++ /usr/bin/gitlab-runner-helper artifacts-uploader --url http://gitlab.example.com --token [MASKED] --id 424 --path test.txt --artifact-format zip --artifact-type archive
test.txt: found 1 matching artifact files and directories

There is nothing relevant in gitlab-rails productions logs and gitlab-workhorse current logs.

My runner (run perfectly to upload registry images):

concurrent = 1
check_interval = 0
shutdown_timeout = 0

[session_server]
  session_timeout = 1800

[[runners]]
  name = "docker-runner"
  url = "http://gitlab.example.com"
  id = 8
  token = "my_token"
  token_obtained_at = 2023-07-26T10:01:35Z
  token_expires_at = 0001-01-01T00:00:00Z
  executor = "docker"
  clone_url = "https://gitlab.example.com"
  [runners.docker]
    tls_verify = false
    image = "docker:latest"
    privileged = true
    disable_entrypoint_overwrite = false
    helper_image = "gitlab/gitlab-runner-helper:alpine3.18-x86_64-v16.2.0"
    oom_kill_disable = false
    disable_cache = false
    volumes = ["/cache"]
    shm_size = 0

Any suggestion? Thanks a lot!

I had the same issue, looks like it was due to the storage issue of the gitlab instance, artifacts were taking huge chunk of the memory,
So i cleared the artifacts it worked for me.

and for future,
add this to your artifacts

  artifacts:
    expire_in: 1 week
    paths:
      - test.txt
