How to debug failing commands in a stuck pipeline in Gitlab CI?

I've set up a repository in a local Gitlab (Community Edition) install, and a .gitlab-ci.yml file in the repo root.

The file contains instructions to deploy a web site through FTP on commit. It's supposed to call lftp and mirror the new revision's contents to a remote server.

However, when I commit to the repo, the commit stays on pending and stuck forever:

enter image description here

I have to assume there's something wrong with the lftp command in the .gitlab-ci.yml file - but I can't for the life of me find out how to debug this.

Where can I see the full command string (with $CI_PROJECT_DIR and the other variables replaced) so I can run it myself from the command line, or at least see the error messages returned by the lftp call?

I can't find anything in GitLab's UI, nor in /var/syslog. Googling doesn't seem to be helpful, either.

If you click on the status (pending) then on the step that is pending, you should see the full output of your commands
