Gitlab-runner + Docker + Windows - Invalid volume specification












3















I'm trying to run my Gitlab CI locally using Gitlab-runner and docker before committing to make sure they work okay. But I'm having some strange issues!



Unfortunately I have no choice but to use windows (I've had success in the past on Linux).



Every time I run a job in powershell:



C:/Gitlab-runner/gitlab-runner exec docker npm



I get an error:



Job failed (system failure): Error response from daemon: invalid volume specification: '/host_mnt/c/builds/project-0/Users/Lewsmith/api:C:/Users/Lewsmith/api:ro' (executor_docker.go:921:0s)



I've tried setting docker volumes (nemerous combinations) and builds-dir:



C:/Gitlab-runner/gitlab-runner exec docker --builds-dir /builds --docker-privileged --docker-volumes "/builds:C:/Gitlab-runner/builds" npm



That fails with Error response from daemon: invalid mode: /Gitlab-runner/builds because of the colon after the C..



Can anyone point me in the right direction as I'm stumped?



Using gitlab-runner version 11.5.0

  • @Rekovni I'm using the docker executor. Shell executor works okay for jobs that run npm install and linter, but I have a test job that requires a postgres service. Services don't work with shell executors.

At the moment there isn't official support for the Docker executor in Windows. A work in progress issue is open at the moment, and it looks like some people have managed to get a windows docker executor working to varying success in that merge request.



This specific comment shows how they've managed to get it setup using a custom built gitlab-runner. I'm unsure how this will work with Services however, so YMMV.
