Job crashing with an error about finding a container in namespace "concourse"

[sebastienbonami]

Summary

Hi, I have a job in a Concourse pipeline that result often (but not always) in an error like this:
wait for process completion: backend error: Exit status: 500, message: {"Type":"","Message":"get container: container \"e91b65f1-a04a-4bda-49ba-058520a956dc\" in namespace \"concourse\": not found","Handle":"","ProcessID":"","Binary":""}

The task that fails in the job is this one here: https://github.com/Ferlab-Ste-Justine/clin-prescription-ui/blob/2fce0427177eed8f72198e361c2830c7eec2f61c/ci/template.yml#L69-L75

My Concourse setup is in Kubernetes using this Helm chart: https://github.com/concourse/concourse-chart

I'm wondering what container Concourse is trying to find. The namespace concourse doesn't even actually exist in my Kubernetes cluster. The targetNamespace in my HelmRelease is not concourse so all Concourse resources like worker pods are in a namespace that is not named concourse.

Thanks for your help.

Triaging info

• Concourse version: v7.11.0
• Helm chart version: v17.2.1

Hello,
resource docker-image (what the pipeline you pointed to is using) is deprecated (see #6586).

I suggest to follow https://concourse-ci.org/building-and-pushing-an-image.html for the two-step replacement.

(This might or not definitely fix your problem, but is one less variable to thing about).
