    Automated image update flux-system/flux-system

I get such a commit like every 5s

At some point, restarting the image-automation controller stopped that, however some time later it had restarted again. I think I experienced that twice, however not realising exactly enough what was happening, I didn't keep any logs from this controller, unfortunately.

This is the same base git repo that flux kustomize uses, happens on the master branch, hosted in Gitlab. Verified there were no commits in the container image gerenrating git commit that would have warranted any update. The latest actual image version, gitlab pipeline and latest git commit are all related, and several days older than aforementioned flux2 upgrade. All git authentication happens through an SSH keypair.

Relevant automation manifests:

Thank you for reporting this @srgvg. I have been trying to reproduce this in the last hour with no luck so far.

Just found out that I disabled earlier the ImageUpdateAutomation object, which was the reason this issue stopped happening. Just re-enabled it, and it does happen again now.

The image-automation-controller immediately reacts, and starts with doing 3 empty commits, the first showing up as

About 3 minutes later, it makes again 3 empty commits. Relevant logs are

All commits are identical (except commit has and datetime of course)

After that again after ~2-3 minutes. This seems to match the aforementioned interval: 2m30s.

Currently:

Notice those 49 tags are the same amount as before those commits (confirming no new tags were detected), the image policy mentions the latest detected tags datecoded on November 7.

In all of this setup, tehere are only 2 places with a imagepolicy tag (also as aforementioned, # {"$imagepolicy": "flux-system:......

Changes required upstream in order to avoid the creation of empty commits: go-git/go-git#623 fluxcd/go-git#11.

Further investigation still needed to understand why this is happening.

@srgvg I have created a RC image which blocks the empty commits from being created: ghcr.io/fluxcd/image-automation-controller:rc-10717892. Can you please give it a try?

It will simply log an error in the controller instead of creating empty commits. So at least other automations you have would be able to work normally.

@srgvg Does the repo where you observed this behaviour, have any of the below?

  • Symlinks
  • Git submodules
  • Git recurse submodules

Seems like only a partial fix. Where I had 3 commit's in a row every $interval, I now have two:

@srgvg Are the empty commits still created in the target repository? Does the controller log any errors?

Yes, same empty commits - except 2 per batch instead of three per batch like formerly. Logs were attached, not sure what extra information you are aiming on?

@devopstagon what Git server are you using? Any further information you can provide, as we are still not able to fully reproduce this.

@srgvg @devopstagon we are making changes to fix another issue on IAC. Do you mind trying to reproduce the issue with this image please: ghcr.io/fluxcd/image-automation-controller:rc-982331e6.

Not solved with rc-982331e6, but an improvement: Now only 1 empty commit (instead of two with the previous rc, and three with the one before that).

The new official image automation controller image contains the fix: ghcr.io/fluxcd/image-automation-controller:v0.28.0.
We are in the process of releasing Flux v0.38.0 which will include that image.

I am facing the similar issue where without any new changes , flux is committing to git in every 1min(in my case).
Is there any workaround for this ?

installed versions :
flux version 0.37.0
helm-controller:v0.27.0
kustomize-controller:v0.31.0
image-automation-controller:v0.27.0
image-reflector-controller:v0.23.0
