Please retry uploading when failed.

Sometimes I will get this error https://github.com/abcfy2/aria2-static-build/runs/4349111525?check_suite_focus=true:

Run softprops/action-gh-release@v1
/usr/bin/docker exec  356d60f2fa6f6229b94833f4ef730b7baa9d4f62c9f0341db5214911e5c29164 sh -c "cat /etc/*release | grep ^ID"

Please retry when uploading failed. Thanks.

Note that when using the GH Actions "rerun all jobs" after encountering this error, you can encounter #166 instead, which requires deleting the half-uploaded files before re-running the jobs again will succeed.

#181 seems relevant

[softprops]

If release assets share the same name they should be deleted when a release is reattempted

action-gh-release/src/github.ts

Line 152 in 58fa4b7

console.log(`♻️ Deleting previously uploaded asset ${name}...`);

@softprops Would you please add this feature? I'm facing this issue just now.

I am facing the same issue. Right now, I use this workaround:

steps:
  - name: Upload assets
    id: upload_try1
    continue-on-error: true
    uses: softprops/action-gh-release@v1
    with:
      files: ${{ env.RELEASE_ASSETS }}
  - name: Upload assets (retry)
    id: upload_try2
    if: steps.upload_try1.outcome == 'failure'
    continue-on-error: true
    uses: softprops/action-gh-release@v1
    with:
      files: ${{ env:RELEASE_ASSETS }}
# more retries

+1 for this feature.

We're having an issue with uploading several .zip's from our build chain to the Release file host on Github. Most of them are successful but one or two have been consistently failing with ECONNRESET since around December 2021 or so. Thankfully we were able to come up with a manual workaround by stashing the .zip's as an artifact to the workflow instead of needing to re-run the entire build chain.

During my experiments to find a workaround, a short delay of 5 or 15s did not prevent ECONNRESET from occurring.

E.g. ncipollo/release-action do the job.

The release already existed when I was trying to replace the assets. This failed about 5 times until I deleted the release entirely.

Any updates on this?

this constantly fails, do not use this workflow
