[matievisthekat]

This has been happening only for the last couple of hours.

The job fails with the error The job running on runner GitHub Actions 3 has exceeded the maximum execution time of 360 minutes.
Further investigation shows that the job was in fact running for 6 hours.

The action seems to be running for 6 hours. Is it maybe getting stuck in some kind of infinite loop? A number of the runs for this workflow have had this error. I will link to them below:

I got failure either.
When I tried to switch the version to v3.16, the action continues running for more than 3.5 hrs (2-3 min before, for reference, I will follow the progress and update later).
Some runs reported failure within less than 6 hrs, which action workflow file is not changed.
The log of the run mentioned is here. Is the renderer okay for running?

Ohhh, there is a successful run among failure runs and progressing runs in my repo.
It runs for about 5 min, (2-3 min before, for reference).
However, the is also an error during rendering in the log :(

The detailed log of the run mentioned is here.
I think it would be helpful to locate the failure?
I will be pleased to give more information if needed.

Occurring on the latest commit as well, seems to get stuck whilst rendering.

Same here

[rhld16]

There was an issue with GitHub Actions, which has since been resolved

[bossm0n5t3r]

@rhld16 oh.. before I left my comment, I've checked github action status, it was okey... but it happened 😅 Thank you!

[bossm0n5t3r]

everything is ok, Thanks all 👍

[lammersbjorn]

I am still getting the errors right now.

[lowlighter]

Seems to be indeed related to GitHub Actions being down but it looks like it's fixed now as @rhld16 reported 👍

[lammersbjorn]

I've gotten the error 5 minutes ago still

[lowlighter]

Your last 6 workflows seems to be good though, are you sure it's not old notifications ?
