I’m trying to setup droneci with docker pipeline on RPI arm64. Here’re my files:

**.env**

```auto
DRONE_GITHUB_CLIENT_ID=XXXXX
DRONE_GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET=XXXXXXXXXX
DRONE_RPC_SECRET=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
DRONE_SERVER_HOST=drone.pychat.org
DRONE_SERVER_PROTO=http
DRONE_USER_CREATE=username:akoidan,admin:true
DRONE_RPC_HOST=drone
DRONE_RPC_PROTO=http
DRONE_RUNNER_CAPACITY=2
DRONE_RUNNER_NAME=drone-runner-1
DRONE_LOGS_DEBUG=true
DRONE_LOGS_TRACE=true

```

**docker-compose.yml**

```auto
version: '3'
services:
  drone:
    image: drone/drone:1
    networks:
      - rpc
    volumes:
      - /var/lib/drone:/data
    ports:
      - 8066:80
    env_file:
      - ./.env

  runner:
    image: drone/drone-runner-docker:1
    networks:
      - rpc
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
    env_file:
      - ./.env
networks:
  rpc:

```

As you see communication between drone server and runners go directly by `http` via `rpc` network. My drone server (web UI) is located behind nginx with SSL proxy if it matters:

**/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/drone.conf** :

```auto
server {
       listen 80;
       server_name drone.pychat.org;
       return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}

server {
    listen 443 ssl http2;
    server_name drone.pychat.org;
    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/drone.pychat.org/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/drone.pychat.org/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot

    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;

        proxy_pass http://localhost:8066;
        proxy_redirect off;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_buffering off;

        chunked_transfer_encoding off;
    }

}

```

And project with drone config:

**.drone.yml**

```auto
---
kind: pipeline
type: docker
name: default

platform:
  os: linux
  arch: arm64

steps:
  - name: greeting
    commands:
      - echo hello world
trigger:
  event:
    exclude:
      - pull_request

```

**logs**

But the task is always in pending status

edit: response from gitter channel included below

> The `node` section defines a list of key / value labels that are used to assign a pipeline to a runner. The node labels must match the runner labels exactly. In your example, DRONE\_RUNNER\_LABELS is being set to `runner:rpi` but in your yaml you set the node labels to `runner:drone-runner-1`. This mismatch is the reason the pipeline is not being assigned and is sitting in a pending status. To resolve, change the `node` section in your yaml to match the runner labels:
> 
> ```diff
> node:
> - runner: drone-runner-1
> + runner: rpi
>
