composer update error

sometimes the pipeline returns error which says:

Hi, I have the same problem since yesterday. I have read the suggested artice and it works again. Maybe Bitbucket need to write some message to all his customers in the form of alert, so everyone knows about the problem. We could't work since yesterday and this is a big loss for many companies because of this error.

It's only today that we started receiving failures despite using the same image for months.

Fix is to install git but I want to know why bitbucket is having authentication issues with github?

[Daniil Penkin]

Again, this has nothing to do with Bitbucket as such. The script is running inside of a specified Docker image.

[Shawn_Seo]

it's working now. thanks.

[Shawn_Seo]

Yes, I'm using docker but as i said it's working basically but sometimes doesn't.

Why the docker image is inconsistent?

[Daniil Penkin]

Docker image isn't. I believe that clone doesn't happen every time.

From this log excerpt:

- Installing kylekatarnls/update-helper (1.2.0): Downloading (connecting...) Downloading (0%) Failed to download kylekatarnls/update-helper from dist: Could not authenticate against github.com
Now trying to download from source
- Installing kylekatarnls/update-helper (1.2.0): Cloning 5786fa188e

It looks like it tries to download it from dist first. Can you check the log of successful pipeline and see if it was able to download the update-helper from dist and never fell back to cloning the source?

Cheers,
Daniil

[Shawn_Seo]

Here is the log when it's ok.

+ composer update

Thanks.

[Daniil Penkin]

Cool, my assumption was correct: here it managed to download from dist, so didn't fall back to cloning the source and never called git.

Hello @Shawn_Seo ,

You seem to be running your script in a Docker image that doesn't have git. You need to either install it earlier in the same script or switch to an alternative Docker image which has git preinstalled.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers,
Daniil
