action #116593
closedDependency cron openqabot needs to be recovered or replaced size:M
Description
Observation¶
We have the problem that our bot https://github.com/openqabot can not create
successful pull requests anymore:
https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/pull/4799
https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/os-autoinst/openQA/10162
Could not find a usable config.yml, you may have revoked the CircleCI OAuth app.
Please sign out of CircleCI and log back in with your VCS before triggering a new pipeline.
Somehow the CirclecI Checks app got lost on this account.
But none of us can login to this account anymore, so we probably need a new bot user. The bot account for
circleCI was created by Andrii Nikitin but he could not receive a password recovery email
Suggestions¶
- Create a new bot account with a proper mailing list as email address
- Document that new bot account, e.g. in https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/password
- Use that account for our purposes
Workaround¶
If a broken dependency update PR is created we as individuals can create a new pull request from the same branch from our fork amending the commit

The PR has been merged. However, the two most recent nightly workflows on https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/os-autoinst/openQA did not create any PRs because neither dependencies nor documentation has changed. I suppose we'll wait until a PR would be created and see how it breaks (or maybe it even works).

I've been creating a access token and updated it on https://app.circleci.com/settings/project/github/os-autoinst/openQA/environment-variables.
That seems to have worked: https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/pull/4818
(The new PR is experiencing the other issue we have with CircleCI but at least the workflows run at all.)
Updated by mkittler over 1 year ago
I've also created a PR documenting how this worked: https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/pull/4819
By the way, I'd like to keep this in feedback until we've also seen a successful documentation update PR (although it will very likely work).

There was no documentation PR in the meantime. We will just trust that we see error messages in such cases.
