(X) This check failed - sometimes happens on macOS runner

[tysonite]

Sometimes, only "(X) This check failed" message appears on the output for a particular macOS run, example is here: https://github.com/tysonite/robotframework/runs/650302841?check_suite_focus=true

This error message does not include other information to get details of what's going wrong in case it is not internal Github Actions issue. On the other hand, I expect it to do not happen.

Virtual environments affected

• macOS 10.15
• Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
• Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
• Windows Server 2016 R2
• Windows Server 2019

Hello, it was related to temporary issue with our backend. It should be resolved for now.
Could you please double check?

[tysonite]

It looks like that it still happens: https://github.com/robotframework/robotframework/runs/673835994?check_suite_focus=true

[tysonite]

And 2 times happened later today:

• https://github.com/robotframework/robotframework/pull/3530/checks?check_run_id=675082683

Hello everyone, thank you for your report.
It is known problem with our backend and we are working to fix it and deploy the fix.
I will post update as soon as I have it

[mratsim]

This seems to still be happening: https://github.com/SciNim/vectorize/pull/1/checks?check_run_id=723528967

[Calvin-LL]

Still running into this

[tysonite]

Can you share any estimates when this might be resolved please?

[MaksimZhukov]

Hello @tysonite !
This issue is still being investigating and unfortunately, we can't provide any ETA for now. We will post update as soon as we have it.
How often do you see repro for this issue?

[Calvin-LL]

Duplicate of #969? Already resolved for me now at least.

[tysonite]

@MaksimZhukov, I don't see for a couple of days that checks fail without a reason. Previously, this was very often. However, now checks get canceled unexpectedly (see here) - note that no one cancel them.

[maxim-lobanov]

Hello everyone, just re-post update from different thread: #736 (comment) .
Sorry for inconvenience.

[cytopia]

I can also confirm that jobs on MacOS are cancelled for no apparent reason: https://github.com/cytopia/pwncat/pull/80/checks?check_run_id=792119613

Additionally to say there are not logs or other info regarding why it had been cancelled

[miketimofeev]

@cytopia actually there are some logs in View Raw Logs tab https://pipelines.actions.githubusercontent.com/97gHSubSPCyarCaLrsiRsUG8bxJdfozAtomOlAWZ9DDbFzHfno/_apis/pipelines/1/runs/6283/signedlogcontent/3?urlExpires=2020-06-22T08%3A05%3A18.6503439Z&urlSigningMethod=HMACV1&urlSignature=HddomSJ2KiiXdKQt%2F5tN18vmqBQgbb4ooo5ojjrwQcI%3D
We'll continue investigation

[bhargav55]

Team, I get the same issue now. Please resolve it

[miketimofeev]

@bhargav55 it was GitHub outage on Friday. Should be resolve by now

[filipinascimento]

This is happening again to our environment: https://github.com/ABenatti/network_symmetry (private repo)

[danielcorrea-vocus]

still happening

[sanzenwin]

Same issue

[slimsag]

also experiencing this in https://github.com/hexops/mach

[slimsag]

Make sure you are using runs-on: macos-latest, if the tag is wrong you'll get this same nonsensical error.

[johnthagen]

We have experienced this on Ubuntu jobs as well: https://github.com/sillsdev/TheCombine/runs/3263385677

[miketimofeev]

@johnterickson there was an issue with the pipelines at that time.
I'm going to close the issue as the occurrences are intermittent now and there shouldn't be any global issues.

[kkharji]

still happens

[damian-t]

Still occasionally happens on ubuntu-18.04

[vital987]

This check failed error occured for me when my monthly Github Actions quota was over, so check your emails to see the quota reset date, GitHub Actions will work fine from that date.

[vital987]

Hi Team, I am facing a This check failed issue. Please resolve it.

Try checking your Github Actions quota from Settings > Billing & Plans, if it's full, wait till it renews.

Having the same issue

[kevinadhiguna]

Having the same trouble.

[steelx]

issue is back, Tests are not running using ubuntu-latest

[cstarret]

Having the same issue on self-hosted runners. Most often is happening on one of four matrixed jobs (all running in same env, just using matrix to provide unique seeds).

[cstarret]

actually found the issue. For self-hosted runners this is likely a problem with setting up the working directory, and in the "annotations" field of your actions summary, you'll see something like "access denied for ". In my case I had a typo in the workdir path when I registered the runner.
