Manual triggered pipeline on self-hosted not starting

Question

Hi,

When running a manually triggered pipeline running on a self-hosted runner it get stopped because of build minutes.

The automatically triggered ones works but not manual.
Did some searching on the community forum and found a similar post from ~1 year ago with a closed bug report

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BCLOUD-21780

Am I missing how to get around the issue or is the bug introduced again?

Hi Eric and welcome to the community!

I tried to reproduce this issue with a workspace on the free plan that is out of build minutes, but I haven't been able to. Both automatically triggered and manual pipelines run on a self-hosted runner.

If you are using one self-hosted runner, and a build is already running, then the build that is triggered next will start as soon as the build currently running is finished.

* Does the pipeline you are triggering manually have the following in all of its steps?runs-on:
  - self.hosted
  - macos # this could be linux, linux.shell or windows, depending on the runner

* Are you perhaps triggering the pipeline for an older commit or for a branch that does not have the above runs-on definition?

Kind regards,
Theodora
