Investigation: upgrade to use windows-2019/windows-2022/windows-latest #133

Open zdtsw opened 2 years ago

zdtsw commented 2 years ago

In the past we were using windows-2016 but it is not supported by GH any more, thus any job tries to run on it got queued and eventually timeout.

It would be good to know

  1. what was the problem that we cannot run run-aqa or aqa-tests on windows-2019 etc
  2. try to find a way to make aqa-tests /run-aqa working on windows-2019 etc
  3. this would help e.g temurin build to upgrade to newer version of windows servers if we want. (currently on windows-2012)

see error logs when try to use windows-latest from https://github.com/adoptium/run-aqa/pull/131

one thing can be checked is, if cygwin works with any windows version over 2016
