A few minutes ago, all cachix/cachix-action@v12 jobs started to fail with:

Error: Action failed with error: Error: Unable to locate executable file: cachix. Please verify either the file path exists or the file can be found within a directory specified by the PATH environment variable. Also check the file mode to verify the file is executable.

We're seeing the same thing: https://github.com/runtimeverification/evm-semantics/actions/runs/4296996503/jobs/7489418708

I've tried version 14 and version 15 of the action.

This is not an issue with this action. The latest nix release (2.14.0) has a regression which causes this.

Pinning nix version in the nix-install-action resolves it:

install_url: https://releases.nixos.org/nix/nix-2.13.3/install

See NixOS/nixpkgs#218858 (comment)

We have to pin the GitHub actions nix version to v2.13.3 to avoid having
the regression mentioned in cachix/cachix-action#138 (comment).

This should fix the build CI.

I see the same thing on a self-hosted macos runner and I don't even know why. How does one debug this?

This usually means that we can't find the cachix executable in your PATH. You can start tracking this down by echo-ing PATH during the workflow and making sure that it contains paths to the system/user nix profiles.
I would recommend pre-installing cachix if using a self-hosted runner.

I forgot to post an update. I fixed it couple of hours after posting.

This was caused by GH action runner wiping the environment on start, discarding Nix environment. It's weird because it works fine on Linux, in similar setup. I think it's because shell is not being used to invoke commands on MacOS, while it is on Linux, or because DeterminateSystems installer is wiring things up differently between the two for some reason.

The fix was to run ./env.sh after sourcing Nix init script to update .env and .path inside the runner's dir, before calling ./run.sh.
