Not able to run manual pipeline via UI, with custom CI paths
Summary
When a project has a custom CI paths, and it has never ran any pipelines before, you won't be able to run a manual pipeline in the UI. You would need to first run a scheduled pipeline (or a pipeline via the API) in order to be able to run future pipelines manually via the UI.
Steps to reproduce
- Host a CI file: https://gitlab.com/nelbacha/test-hosting-ci-file/-/blob/master/.gitlab-ci.yml
- Create a new project: https://gitlab.com/nelbacha/test-cusom-ci-path
- In the project, specify a custom CI path:
- Go to your project's pipelines, and notice that you can't trigger a manual pipeline.
- Workaround; trigger a manual pipeline via the API:
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <PAT>" "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/17396272/pipeline?ref=master" - Notice that pipeline runs, and that from now on you can run manual pipelines via the UI

What is the current bug behavior?

What is the expected correct behavior?
You can run manual pipeline in UI

Possible fixes
The pipeline table nav controls will never be rendered because the user has not made a request
