Hello @kevinoid. Thank you for your report. We'll investigate the issue.
@dmitry-shibanov Were you able to investigate the issue? Is there anything else that I can do to assist? It appears that builds are still hanging in "Adding to the cache ...".
Hello, @kevinoid ! I'm sorry for the late response, I just wanted to give you a little ping to see if your issue resolved in the meantime? :)
Hi @dusan-trickovic, Thanks for checking in! Nope, it's still not resolved. Is there anything I can do to help investigate?
Understood. I will investigate it and reach out to you again when I have a solution or if I need some more clarification (or at least when I have some updates / suggestions). Thank you very much for your cooperation! :)
I've determined the cause of the issue: The invocation of C:\npm\prefix\yarn.cmd --version
in printEnvDetailsAndSetOutput()
hangs due to the presence of a file named node.js
in the repository. This occurs because of a regression (https://github.com/npm/cmd-shim/pull/64 https://github.com/npm/cmd-shim/issues/71) in the .cmd
shim generated for yarn
by recent versions of npm
which invokes node.js
instead of node.exe
.
Although the root cause of the issue is not in setup-node, I would suggest adding a reasonable timeout for the --version
invocations along with a useful error message to aid future users affected by similar issues.
Hi, @kevinoid ! Thanks for the update, I'm glad you've found the culprit behind this issue :) And thank you for the suggestion - I will investigate it and forward it to my team as well :)
Description: In one of my repositories,
actions/setup-node
hangs after "Adding to the cache ..." until the job times out.Action version: v3
Platform:
Runner type:
Tools version: I've observed the error with
node-version: '14.18'
andnode-version: '>=17.1'
.Repro steps:
I'm observing the issue in my eslint-config-kevinoid repository. I've created a minimal workflow which reproduces the issue which produced this failing workflow run.
Minimal Workflow Issue Reproduction YAML
```yaml name: Failing Workflow on: push: {} workflow_dispatch: {} jobs: test: name: Node ${{ matrix.node }} ${{ matrix.arch }} on ${{ matrix.os }} timeout-minutes: 5 runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }} strategy: matrix: arch: - x64 os: - windows-latest node: - '14.18' steps: - uses: actions/checkout@v3 - name: Set up Node.js ${{ matrix.node }} uses: actions/setup-node@v3 with: node-version: ${{ matrix.node }} architecture: ${{ matrix.arch }} check-latest: ${{ matrix.node == '*' }} ```Note that the 5 minute timeout in the reproduction was added arbitrarily to make the issue easier to test and demonstrate. The original workflow
actions/setup-node@v3
failed after 6 hours.Also note that the issue does not occur if the
actions/checkout@v3
step is removed.Expected behavior: The
actions/setup-node@v3
step would complete in a reasonable amount of time.Actual behavior: The
actions/setup-node@v3
step does not complete after 5 minutes (or 6 hours).
