Pipeline Timeout Issue During Solution Deployment to Test Environment (Started 23rd Aug) #1236
Description
We have an Azure DevOps pipeline configured to deploy Dynamics 365 solutions to our higher environments. This pipeline was functioning as expected until 22nd August. Starting 23rd August, deployments to our Test environment began experiencing issues — the pipeline now runs for approximately 6 hours before failing with a timeout error.
✅ Key Points:
The pipeline configuration has not been modified recently — it was working without issues before 23rd August.
The same pipeline is used to deploy to both Stage and Test environments.
✅ Deployment to Stage continues to work as expected.
❌ Deployment to Test consistently fails with a timeout.
The failure occurs during the solution import step.
This step previously completed in under an hour.
This issue is currently affecting our ability to promote solutions to the Test environment, delaying validation and QA processes.
