Closed Panda-Sharp closed 2 years ago
The extension is developed by @rfennell - can you please create an issue in his repo? https://github.com/rfennell/AzurePipelines
I have seen this problem in my testing. It appears to be an issue with the MAC Agents being unable to download the PDF tool from GitHub, a retry usually fixes it.
The most reliable workaround is to place the azuredevops-export-wiki-osx
MAC exe in your own repo and avoid the need to download it from GitHub each time.
FYI: I can't ship the EXE within the Azure DevOps task as it makes the package too big
@Panda-Sharp is there a specific need to run the conversion in the Mac agent or can you can a second job with windows/Unix?
No nothing special about running the process on a MAC or any other OS. It is the same code, the only difference being a switch statement to make sure the correct EXE is downloaded and run.
You can do all the rest of your CI/CD process with a MAC agent, but have a job running on Windows/Unix that does the PDF converison.
Nothing special, just simplicity, if it would be possible/easy to fix it, would be really nice, if there is no hope, I'll run it on a different job with different agent 🙂
Edit: From the gh app i didn't see your first 2 comments, i think i will first experiment with a retry or download the exe myself. Sorry for creating the issue in tbe wrong repo 😅
Thanks all
Thanks
thanks @rfennell - whats the maximum file size to include it into your task?
The max size is only 25Mb for custom extensions, so way too small for most tools to be included. Space for just scripts
Sometimes with a macos agent, the pipeline task fail on download with the following error
Is there any hope for a fix? thanks
