Random crashes on Windows in Github actions #12

Open mmomtchev opened 3 days ago

mmomtchev commented 3 days ago

I tend to run a very large amount of builds in Github Actions and I have seen on several occasions what appears to be a random crash.

It is quite rare, I have seen it only in Github Actions, always on Windows, always during the configure phase.

Here is one example: https://github.com/mmomtchev/magickwand.js/actions/runs/11283317315/job/31382560438

I haven't been able to link this to any similar issues on the official CMake tracker.

Obviously, finding it will be very difficult - especially if it happens only in Github Actions. Maybe it is an interaction between the compiler runtime and the Github Actions Windows DLLs?

I am creating this issue to track the occurrences.

Maybe, I don't know. My first thought was for some resources that are exhausted, from memory to some internal handles or similar.

Could you find a trick to save the logs as artefacts, for later inspection?

Yes, indeed, GHA runners do not have lots of memory. I will try to save the logs.
