"No process was able to handle..." for github and gitlab

I had backstage sort of working in kubernetes but was experiencing some issues with templates. I noticed the image referred to in the helm charts is from April, so I’ve been trying to use a newer build.

• I’ve built a docker container from tag/release-2021-12-16 using the instructions here. The container is available at citihub/backstage:20211216
• I have it running in a Kubernetes cluster, deployed via the example helm chart.
• $GITLAB_TOKEN and $GITHUB_TOKEN are set inside the backend container, as verified by exec’ing into the container.

The log file has warnings that No processor was able to handle reading of github:... when trying to load the sample data sets. This worked in the older build. When I try to add something from gitlab I get a similar error.

Expected Behavior

• Backstage processes .yaml files from github and gitlab.

Current Behavior

Backstage backend logs the following errors - 2021-12-21T21:59:08.690Z catalog warn No processor was able to handle reading of github:https://github.com/backstage/backstage/blob/master/plugins/github-actions/examples/sample.yaml type=plugin entity=location:default/generated-060bf5de1d298e45b4e44be6a1151632996f880f

2021-12-21T22:00:38.676Z catalog warn No processor was able to handle reading of gitlab/api:https://gitlab.com/my-group/backstage/-/blob/main/templates/hello-world/template.yaml type=plugin entity=location:default/generated-701b685ec94bceeb77d1de134b2874347835f4e0

Possible Solution

Steps to Reproduce

• Modify the example helm charts to use citihub/backstage:20211216 as the backend image
• Add auth.gitlab_token and auth.github_token to values.yaml
• Deploy the helm chart
• Navigate to “Register an existing component” and add a URL from either github or gitlab - error received
• Look at the log files kubectl logs backstage-backend-abcd1234c-12345

Context

Backstage is unusable in this state because there is nothing configured to process files

Your Environment

• Built using Node v16
• Running in Azure Kubernetes Service v1.20.9

i saw this little helper script that was lying around - maybe it can be helpful https://github.com/backstage/backstage/blob/master/scripts/migrate-location-types.js
