Deploying Jenkins using skaffold via GitHub Action Runner

Question

I am deploying Jenkins Using GitHub Action Runner using Skaffold. While the Skaffold is installed over the default image of GitHub Runner The pod is restarting due to crash loop back off error and causing it to restart. I am not sure why it is happening.

When I am deploying runner over Google Kubernetes Engine my runner is failing because of following error:

'''A runner exists with the same name
√ Successfully replaced the runner
√ Runner connection is good

# Runner settings


√ Settings Saved.


√ Connected to GitHub

Current runner version: '2.294.0'
2022-12-01 06:03:57Z: Listening for Jobs
Runner update in progress, do not shutdown runner.

Waiting for current job finish running.
Generate and execute update script.
Runner will exit shortly for update, should be back online within 10 seconds.

Following is the Dockerfile used for runner :

Below is the startup script :

echo "Started $SNAPTIME"

GH_PROJECT=$GH_PROJECT

cd /home/docker/actions-runner

./config.sh --name $RUNNER_NAME --labels ${RUNNER_LABELS} --url https://github.com/${ORGANIZATION}/${GH_PROJECT} --unattended --replace --token ${REG_TOKEN}

cleanup() {
    echo "Removing runner..."
    ./config.sh remove --unattended --token ${REG_TOKEN}
}

trap 'cleanup; exit 130' INT
trap 'cleanup; exit 143' TERM

./run.sh & wait $!

The pod is restarting whenever the load is coming into it:

I am not sure what exactly is causing this issue.
