One common error generated by the Composer program is as follows:

    Loading composer repositories with package information
    Failed to clone the git@github.com:[repo_name].git repository, try running in
    interactive mode so that you can enter your GitHub credentials

In this case, Composer was unable to retrieve the GitHub repository `repo_name`. This may indicate that the repository requires credentials to allow access. Add an SSH key that has access to the repository to your build definition file using the `pipelines encrypt` command.

Note

After you fix any detected issues with any pipeline jobs, run the `start` command again to restart the build.
