Renovatebot doesn't create PRs

[denisgaina]

What would you like help with?

I would like help with my configuration

How are you running Renovate?

Self-hosted

If you're self-hosting Renovate, tell us which platform (GitHub, GitLab, etc) and which version of Renovate.

Bitbucket server, renovate/renovate Docker image from Dockerhub

Please tell us more about your question or problem

I am trying to use renovate bot and I can't make it create at least a PR. I am trying to run renovate bot self-hosted as a Docker container inside a Jenkins job. The Jenkins job runs successfully but doesn't create any PR. Logs aren't beneficial, I can't understand what I'm doing wrong.

My Jenkinsfile:
Jenkinsfile_renovate.txt

My config.js:
config.js.txt

My renovate.json in the repo where Dockerfiles that I want to be scanned by renovate-bot are stored:
renovate.json

I ran the renovate container from the Jenkins agent (so I didn't use Jenkins) and I have the same issue.
The command
sudo docker container logs 0368ce548a43
shows the same output as Jenkins output.

Hi @RahulGautamSingh,

Yes, that is the full log from Jenkins. No worries.

I ran the renovate container from a Linux server (so I didn't use Jenkins) and I tried to set dryRun to false and later I removed completely the dryRun and anyway I got the same result :(

docker-container-log.txt

[RahulGautamSingh]

Sorry not possible to help further without the full logs.

[rarkins]

If the logs "just stop" then it indicates that the container crashed, e.g. out of memory. The logs are incomplete

[denisgaina]

@rarkins ok. So how should I understand why the container crashed? Should I configure somehow the container to write logs in some path on the server so that I will be able to check logs even if the container crashes? Or maybe you have other recommendations?

[rarkins]

I don't know. If it was renovate crashing then you'd see a stack trace. If you're not seeing that and the logs stop suddenly then it implies that something else crashed that's not renovate. Try running in a different environment
