Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

We have set up a Pipeline in Azure DevOps that exports a model-driven solution and puts it in git. It uses the "old" build components in version 0.3.6.

Yesterday I noticed that the pipeline was killed after one hour. I did some investigation and noticed that a new set of build components have been published, so I installed that in our Azure DevOps and made a new pipeline using the new "Power Platform" components - all it does is install the tool package and then try to export the solution.

However - this pipeline is also killed after an hour.

I am using a service connection with username/password that I used to create the original pipeline with the old version of the build components, so no MFA/SP used.

The logs are these:

This is the last line of the logs in this step. When an hour has passed, the pipeline is killed and the logs for this specific step are cleared.

The configuration of the "Export step" is this:

Finaly: On the Azure DevOps MarketPlace there has been some speculation about the timeout being caused by large solutions. When the pipeline was previously working, it finished the export in 19 seconds, so I doubt that this is the cause ... for us, at least.

Please help 🙂
