fly machine run is no longer executing CMD and machine stays stuck

akutruff · October 31, 2023, 12:48pm

My work item machines are no longer executing their command and exiting. They were working yesterday afternoon. However, even the most simple container setup is causing the same problem.

I setup the simplest reproduction here:

FROM node:20-alpine AS base
CMD echo hello world

Script to build and run the container:

#!/bin/bash
set -e

fly apps create --machines --name machinebug

APP_NAME="machinebug"
IMAGE="registry.fly.io/${APP_NAME}"

docker build --no-cache -t ${IMAGE} -f ./Dockerfile .

docker push ${IMAGE}

fly machine run \
    --detach \
    --region iad \
    --vm-memory 512 \
    --rm \
    --restart no \
    --app ${APP_NAME} \
    ${IMAGE}

The above should run, exit. and print hello world. Instead, the machine hangs forever. “hello world” is never printed. The logs show the following:

$ fly logs -a machinebug

Waiting for logs...

Hi, does this work if you try a different region?

Just tried in ord and no luck. Logs at bottom

Just as an FYI. I’m going off scattered docs here. The --machines command line option isn’t even normally listed.

fly apps create --machines

However, I have not found any other way using only apps with toml to run one-off stateless tasks.

Can you run fly machines list -a machinebug while the machine seems to be stuck? (i.e. start mashing on that command once you run your script in another terminal).

Thanks!

akutruff · October 31, 2023, 2:59pm

Okay, perhaps there is something wrong with my account? I have tried deleting and recreating the app as well. Perhaps try slightly changing the docker file and it multiple times?

Here’s the output of me running fly machines list -a machinebug >> out.txt in quick succession:

Note: the machines stay stuck forever. The only way I can get rid of them is with fly machine stop

akutruff · October 31, 2023, 3:05pm

I also tried in my other org and it is the same behavior.

MatthewIngwersen · October 31, 2023, 3:52pm

Hi @akutruff—I’m able to reproduce this. I think it may be a bug introduced in flyctl v0.1.113. I’m looking into it now.

In the meantime, if you’d like, then you can try temporarily downgrading to v0.1.112. If you installed flyctl via the online install.sh script, then I believe that the following command should do it:

curl -L https://fly.io/install.sh | sh -s -- v0.1.112

(If you try downgrading, then please let me know if it works!)

akutruff · October 31, 2023, 4:13pm

That shell command to downgrade does not appear to work… Running fly auth login and then fly auth docker appears to upgrade the command line silently behind the scenes:

As you can see below, I had fly version v0.1.112 but at the bottom it is v0.1.114.

diegostem · October 31, 2023, 5:08pm

This is happening to me as well. The machine is running /bin/sleep inf instead of the command passed to flyctl

MatthewIngwersen · October 31, 2023, 5:28pm

@akutruff sorry about that. I suspect that it auto-updated itself right back to v0.1.114.

In any case, we just released v0.1.115, which should address this issue. If flyctl does not auto-update itself, then fly version upgrade should get it for you. If that doesn’t fix it, then please let us know!

akutruff · October 31, 2023, 5:47pm

The command is now running, however, twice now the run command hung when trying to start a new machine
