setup-go action should allow for existing cache files #403

Open shaunco opened 1 year ago

shaunco commented 1 year ago

Description: On a self-hosted runner that is already caching tools, the v4 setup-go action attempts to call tar to extract its mod cache and ends up with a bunch of "Cannot open: File exists" errors, and eventually

Action version: v4

Platform:

Runner type:

Tools version: ^1.20

Repro steps: 

Run actions/setup-go@v4
  with:
    go-version: ^1.[2](https://github.com/xyz/abc/actions/runs/123/job/123#step:5:2)0

Expected behavior: Existing files should be ignored via the -k or --skip-old-files option on tar

Actual behavior: Existing files are treated as errors.

Hello @shaunco ! Thank you for reporting the issue, we will investigate it and get back to you as soon as we have more info :)

shaunco commented 1 year ago

Thanks @dusan-trickovic ! Not sure if it is related, but we also seem to end up with quite a few duplicate setup-go action caches that all have the same sha256 and need to be cleared out every few days:

dsame commented 1 year ago

Hello @shaunco, can you please try to disable caching for the action:

  - uses: actions/setup-go@v4
    with:
      go-version: '...'
      cache: false

this should solve the problem.

bc-lee commented 1 year ago

Based on my understanding, go get downloads source codes with write permissions removed. As a result, extracting (tar -xf) cache files to GOPATH may cause errors. It would be helpful for setup-go to add write permissions to the cache directory before extracting and remove them after the process is complete.

dsame commented 1 year ago

@bc-lee Self-hosted runner preserves the cache and builds results so caching does not have sense for them, we should disable caching for them by default. Currently it can be turned off manually

bc-lee commented 1 year ago

@dsame Aha, that makes sense. I'm not sure if changing the default based on where the runner is running (i.e., provided by GitHub or self-hosted) is a good idea. I think it would be much better for the user to explicitly specify that option.

dsame commented 1 year ago

Hello @bc-lee my motivation to have the different value of cache is to have the same omitted cache input for both github-hosted and self-hosted builds in the other case users have to have to diffrenet workflows

I changed this bug to feature request basing on

Hi @dsame

Self-hosted runner preserves the cache and builds results so caching does not have sense for them

This is not always true. We use the ephemeral self-hosted runners so it would be great to have the cache available. With cache: false I can see that the dependencies are downloaded always.

This issue happens also in github runners, this is not a self-hosted runner issue.
