Description
actions/cache/save
recently (2025-03-26) failed with a timeout and a subsequent error as it looks like the key has been created in the initial attempt:
Attempt 1 of 5 failed with error: Request timeout: /twirp/github.actions.results.api.v1.CacheService/CreateCacheEntry. Retrying request in 3000 ms...
Failed to save: Unable to reserve cache with key Linux-build-workspace-930, another job may be creating this cache.
Warning: Cache save failed.
The action is configured as follows:
- name: Cache workspace
uses: actions/cache/save@v4
env:
cache-name: persist-workspace
with:
path: |
...
key: ${{ runner.os }}-build-workspace-${{ github.run_number }}
Current behavior: the step's conclusion is success:
{
"name": "Persist build workspace",
"status": "completed",
"conclusion": "success",
"number": 19,
"started_at": "2025-03-26T02:17:23Z",
"completed_at": "2025-03-26T02:17:40Z"
}
Expected behavior: the action (and job) fails if the cache cannot be created. If this is not generally wanted, having a parameter to fail the step/job on cache creation would be highly welcomed.
Please note: this is a sporadic error which we cannot reproduce. We have not noticed such a behavior before the Deprecation Notice - Upgrade to latest before February 1st 2025.
