What should I do when encountering a missing build branch error?
Description
| Build stage | Job | Error message | Category | Responsibility |
|---|
| Deploy | Create Acquia CDE | The build branch '<BRANCH_NAME>' is missing from Acquia Cloud Platform | Application | Customer |
Potential cause
This error occurs during merge requests if one of the following is true:
- The
ACQUIA_JOBS_CREATE_BRANCH_ARTIFACT environment variable is not set to true. The branch artifact must be created so that it can be pushed to Cloud Platform. - The source branch exists on a fork instead of the main repository.
Solution
- To create the branch artifact:
- Add the
ACQUIA_JOBS_CREATE_BRANCH_ARTIFACT environment variable to your project. Set the value of ACQUIA_JOBS_CREATE_BRANCH_ARTIFACT to true.
For more information, see Adding environment variables.
- If the source branch does not exist in the main repository:
- Push the source branch to the main Code Studio project repository.
- Create the merge request without using a forked repository.
Before you create a merge request using the target branch:
- Ensure that the target branch successfully passes a Code Studio pipeline.
- Deploy the target branch to Cloud Platform.
