Part of "install-dependencies.sh" is to install some binaries required for tests into a custom directory that gets added to the PATH. This directory is located at "$HOME/path" and thus depends on the current user that the script executes as. This creates problems for GitLab CI, which installs dependencies as the root user, but runs tests as a separate, unprivileged user. As their respective home directories are different, we will end up using two different custom path directories. Consequently, the unprivileged user will not be able eto find the binaries that were setu up as root user. Fix this issue by allowing CI to override the custom path, which allows GitLab to set up a constant value that isn't derived from "$HOME". --- .gitlab-ci.yml | 2 ++ ci/lib.sh | 2 +- 2 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/.gitlab-ci.yml b/.gitlab-ci.yml index c0fa2fe90b..3a0ef4d4d4 100644 --- a/.gitlab-ci.yml +++ b/.gitlab-ci.yml @@ -9,6 +9,8 @@ workflow: test:linux: image: $image + variables: + CUSTOM_PATH: "/custom" before_script: - ./ci/install-docker-dependencies.sh script: diff --git a/ci/lib.sh b/ci/lib.sh index 4cce854bad..473a2d0348 100755 --- a/ci/lib.sh +++ b/ci/lib.sh @@ -350,7 +350,7 @@ macos-*) ;; esac -CUSTOM_PATH="$HOME/path" +CUSTOM_PATH="${CUSTOM_PATH:-$HOME/path}" export PATH="$CUSTOM_PATH:$PATH" case "$jobname" in -- 2.44.GIT
