The errors seem to imply tasks are trying to be deleted/cleaned up multiple times, which shouldn't normally happen.
Look at the ECS plugin-specific log in the logs folder and try and trace the sequence of events for an individual agent/container. I'd need to see proper logs to see what is happening. If there is not enough detail, you may want to consider adding -Dplugin.com.thoughtworks.gocd.elasticagent.ecs.log.level=debug to your server startup-arg JVM argos so you can see more of what the plugin is doing. -Chad On Thu, 22 Jan 2026 at 12:56, ashok reddy C k <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Chad, > > We have seen a few issues in ecs agents' terminations, and profiles failed > to execute. > > ecs plugin version: > > 8.0.0-775 > > docker version: 20 > > base image: CentOS-9 > > > Amazon ECS Agent - v1.84.0 old version > > > Errors: > > > Error terminating container with id: GoCD48038f537cff4ecc85d470ea1b457040 > The task definition could not be deregistered because it is in the process > of being deleted.
