Hi @LayMui ,

Could you share the build link on CircleCI so that I can see the build failure for further diagnosis?

Thank you!

thanks Kelvintaywl

now my issue is not able start the server at localhost:8080 at circleci
which I am able to do so locally

here is build link
https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/LayMui/serenityjs-rest/16/workflows/6b34975c-10f8-482a-be29-39fa720739b5/jobs/16

Hi @LayMui

Thank you for sharing your build link.

I took a look at the build information, and noticed that your web server likely did not start.
The ./startwebserver.sh file is trying to run a Apache Tomcat server which likely needs java runtime.
We can see the messsage printed at https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/LayMui/serenityjs-rest/16/workflows/6b34975c-10f8-482a-be29-39fa720739b5/jobs/16?invite=true#step-108-3:

Neither the JAVA_HOME nor the JRE_HOME environment variable is defined
At least one of these environment variable is needed to run this program

I think ensuring the Tomcat server is indeed started would solve your issue.

One thing you can do to ensure this is to make sure your executor has Java runtime set up.
Based on your config, it seems you are using cimg/base:2021.04 as the docker executor but I suspect it may not come with Java runtime.

Perhaps, you may want to use the cimg/openjdk image instead.

I have change the docker image
docker:
- image: cimg/openjdk:1.14-node

Starting container cimg/openjdk:1.14-node
