All the steps got marked as completed, but the stage was still “running”.

Edit: Here’s some errors from the JS console as well:

Hey @olback can you clarify the exact question, are you wondering why the stages are still “running”?

The job is never completed. The status icon is yellow and spinning even though all steps are done (green).

The relevant error (I think) is:

```auto
time="2022-06-26T21:28:18Z" level=error msg="cannot accept stage" error="pq: bind message supplies 20 parameters, but prepared statement \"\" requires 1" stage.id=10 stage.name=build stage.number=1 thread=1

Hey @olback feel free to also [open an issue on Github](https://github.com/harness/drone/issues) so we can track this. I saw your tweet and appreciate your feedback.

Actually, it seems to more of a problem with PG-Bouncer. Connecting directly to the database seems to work. I can’t seem to be able to figure out if the issue is with Drone itself or it’s an issue with PG-Bouncer.

Hey @olback

What version of the docker runner & drone server are you running?
