  • Linux 4.0 ate my docker images

    I have previously written about the gitlab CI runners that use docker.  Yesterday I made some changes to procps and pushed them to gitlab which would then start the CI.  This morning I checked and it said build failed – ok, so that’s not terribly unusual. The output from the runner was:

    gitlab-ci-multi-runner 0.3.3 (dbaf96f)
    Using Docker executor with image csmall/testdebian ...
    Pulling docker image csmall/testdebian ...
    Build failed with Error: image csmall/testdebian: not found

    Hmm, I know I have that image, it just must be the runner so, let’s see what images I have:

    $ docker images
    REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED VIRTUAL SIZE

    Now, I know I have images, I had about 10 or so of them, where did they go? I even looked in the /var/lib/docker directories and can see the json configs, what have you done with my images docker?

  • Checking Cloudflare SSL

    My website for a while has used CloudFlare as its front-end.  It’s a rather nice setup and means my real server gets less of a hammering, which is a good thing.  A few months ago they enabled a feature called Universal SSL which I have also added to my site.  Around the same time, my SSL check scripts started failing for the website, the certificate had expired apparently many many days ago. Something wasn’t right.
