Inconsistent licence activation

[ironcutter24]

Bug description

I get an Unclassified error occured while trying to activate license error, even though I can get a successful cloud build with the same licence and credentials.

How to reproduce

Set UNITY_LICENSE, UNITY_EMAIL, UNITY_PASSWORD secrets. UNITY_VERSION = "2022.3.5f1" BUILD_TARGET_PLATFORM = "StandaloneWindows64"

Run main.yml workflow on a Unity 2022.3.5f1 project.

main.yml

name: Actions 😎

on: [push, pull_request]

  test:
    name: Test my project 🧪

          unityVersion: ${{ secrets.UNITY_VERSION }}
          allowDirtyBuild: true

      - uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3
        with:
          name: Build

Expected behavior

Licence should be activated and tests should continue.

This is a duplcate of https://github.com/game-ci/unity-test-runner/issues/251. Until we have a fix, there are two possible workarounds:

Workarounds for Unity License Issue

a. Manually Extract the Serial from the License File

Manually extract the serial from the Unity license file:

1. Locate the License File (depending on your operating system)

   • Windows: C:\ProgramData\Unity\Unity_lic.ulf
   • Mac: /Library/Application Support/Unity/Unity_lic.ulf
   • Linux: ~/.local/share/unity3d/Unity/Unity_lic.ulf

2. Extract the Serial

   • Follow the logic outlined in the unity-builder script.
   • This involves reading the file, locating the <DeveloperData Value=" tag, extracting the Base64 encoded string, and then decoding it.
   • Discard the first four characters of the decoded string, as they are not part of the serial.

b. Follow Activation Instructions from v3

Alternatively, follow the activation instructions from version 3.

Can you try game-ci/unity-test-runner@unity-builder-parity and see if the activation issues got better

got through Registration step sucsessfully, now doing the Testing in Playmode step.... looks promising to me!

Am I missing something?

[AndrewKahr]

@ironcutter24 the changes were merged last night so the branch was deleted. Try using v4 now

Works as expected, thank you for addressing the issue this quick!
