Cannot read property "statusCode" of undefined

Hello everyone,

i tried to install semantic release with the gitlab pluging but everytime i try to run my container it fails at the “verifyConditions” stage. I already added the GITLAB_TOKEN (Gitlab environment variable), HTTP_PROXY (Gitlab EV), the package.json as well as a stage for my CI/CD Pipeline. I just found one issue where no answer was given. I think at the end it has something to do with the many regulations of my company environment but maybe you can help me.

I work with the gitlab runner, which starts a docker container with all dependencies. If I manipulate the Gitlab project manually with the “git” command it works. Which means the GITLAB_TOKEN works properly.

I already tried to run semantic-release with the latest version, as well as for each plugin.

I hope you can help me and thanks in advance.

Thought so 😕 But I appreciate the help. I already contacted the network admins 😃

Thank you for your help until this point 😉

I’ll close this issue as it seems like the problem lies on our (company) end.

It seems like I get redirected to our Workbench’s" login page Location: https://workbench.something.de/deeplinklogin

@hahnartefakt Ah, that looks like the root cause to me! The plugin won’t know how to make an API request through the extra layer of authentication imposed by your network.

Unfortunately, I’m not sure the best way to go about solving this 🤔. Perhaps your network admins might have some ideas on how to allow these requests to go through? Sorry I can’t be of more help!
