PERTAIN_TOProblem

ERR_PNPM_FETCH_401 GET https://npm.pkg.github.com/download/@francislagares/jobber-shared/1.0.5/17a9104c0c7f6c748907155929f68e617e94a62e: Unauthorized - 401 — trying to install a private npm package from GitHub Packages using GitHub Actions in a monorepo setup. Tension: An authorization header was used: ***. Outcome: despite setting up authentication as described in the documentation.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

pnpm config set //your-registry.com/:_authToken=${{ secrets.YOUR_PAT }}. Tension: 401 Unauthorized: Check PAT permissions and expiration. Outcome: Store your PAT as a GitHub secret.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

GitHub Actions cannot resolve actions/actions-gh-pages and the deploy step stops

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Use peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v3 in the Deploy step and pass github_token with the correct publish_dir

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Environment URL '' is not a valid http(s) URL. Tension: it will not be shown as a link in the workflow graph. Outcome: got this error.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Use --platform=linux/amd64 in the follow-up images too

PERTAIN_TOSolution

The most robust and recommended solution is to make your build script create the directory structure that Vercel expects. — Vercel Build Output API Structure. Tension: This gives you full control over the deployment.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

GET https://cooking-assistant-phi.vercel.app/static/css/style.css net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found) — I'm deploying a Flask app to Vercel. Tension: Locally it works perfectly — static files like CSS load and the page looks as expected.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Nothing happens when I push to any branch (including main, stage and any other). — I have a pro vercel subscription. I have my github connected. Tension: The only way for me to trigger a deploy is manually calling the hook I set on it, manually. Outcome: The problem was the LOCAL git config name and email did not match the one connected to vercel via "connect git account".

PERTAIN_TOSolution

I had to change the LOCAL git config — git config --global user.name "Your Name" git config --global user.email "your.email@example.com". Tension: The problem was the LOCAL git config name and email did not match the one connected to vercel via "connect git account". Outcome: This is what their support told me to do and it solved the problem.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Find 【Deploy Hooks】, if there is no hook, just create one — Go to you vercel project setting (url likes 'https://vercel.com/your-team/your-project-name/settings/git'). Tension: the code update would sync to Vercel. Outcome: and the code update would sync to Vercel.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

grab the URL of the preview from a github action event. Tension: setting it to the `CYPRESS_BASE_URL` environment variable. Outcome: github.event.deployment_status.target_url.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

I'm unsure how to automatically obtain the preview app's URL for visiting it in Cypress tests. — How can I dynamically retrieve the URL of a preview app created on Vercel when a pull request is made in a Next.js project deployed via GitHub? Tension: I want to utilize Cypress for testing purposes on this deployed app. Outcome: can grab the URL of the preview from a github action event.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

you can grab the URL of the preview from a github action event — only runs this job on successful deploy. Tension: I'm unsure how to automatically obtain the preview app's URL. Outcome: setting it to the `CYPRESS_BASE_URL` environment variable.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

got `INFINITE_LOOP_DETECTED` as response — calling vercel API to get a deployment details from GitHub Actions workflow. Tension: What's going wrong in this code? Outcome: it worked correctly.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

After removing "https://" and then appending the deployment URL to the API request — calling vercel API to get a deployment details from GitHub Actions workflow. Tension: it worked correctly. Outcome: it worked correctly.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

This fails to determine available image versions. Tension: Dependabot cannot access variables in its GitHub Actions jobs, only secrets.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Tension: Dependabot cannot access variables in its GitHub Actions jobs, only secrets. Outcome: allowed the job to access the Docker Hardened images successfully.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

github is matching `**` as anything (as per docs), but discarding the slash completely. — branches: [ '**/ci-*' ]. Tension: I don't understand why, since it ought to match only a branch name containing `/ci-`. Outcome: matches: # - testing/this-should-not-be-ci-run.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

This is triggered when I push the branch `mjd/try-claude-in-ci-20251216`. — on: push: branches: [ '**/ci-*' ]. Tension: I don't understand why, since it ought to match only a branch name containing `/ci-`. Outcome: A bug? Or have I misunderstood something?

PERTAIN_TOSolution

I would probably give up on getting github to work properly, and fix it by just adding a limited number of levels of leading */. — In quick testing, this works to do what you want:. Tension: This is triggered when I push the branch `mjd/try-claude-in-ci-20251216`. Outcome: branches: ["*/ci-*", "*/*/ci-*", "*/*/*/ci-*"].

PERTAIN_TORootCause

`secrets:` for `workflow_call` must come from repository/org/environment secrets — reusable GitHub Actions workflow. Tension: never from dynamic runtime values such as outputs.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

GitHub will NOT allow you to pass workflow outputs into the `secrets:` block of a reusable workflow — chain two reusable GitHub Actions workflows. Tension: `secrets:` for `workflow_call` must come from repository/org/environment secrets, never from dynamic runtime values such as outputs.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

But you can still pass the value, just not through `secrets:` — reusable GitHub Actions workflow. Tension: if the workflow needs it masked. Outcome: pass it via `with:` inputs, and if the workflow needs it masked, you can mask it manually.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

Actions will check the value of `github.ref` against the configuration — For workflows triggered by `pull_request`, `github.ref` is `refs/pull/ /merge`. Tension: That doesn't correspond to what I am observing, which is `github.head_ref`.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

they weren't allowed to deploy to this environment. Tension: The actual branch checked against was `release-1.0`, the branch that was merged to `main`.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

If you want to run something after a PR is successfully merged into `main`, trigger on a `push` instead — after a PR is successfully merged into `main`. Outcome: Environment protection behaves as expected.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

${{ secrets[github.event.inputs.ssh_private_key_secret] }} — a workflow that can be manually triggered. Tension: GitHub Actions doesn't allow dynamic secret access using the syntax. Outcome: Error loading key "(stdin)": error in libcrypto.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

use conditional steps based on the input. Tension: Instead of trying to dynamically reference secrets.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/github/workspace/docs/build/html' — Run ad-m/github-push-action@v0.5.0. Tension: To add an exception for this directory, call: git config --global --add safe.directory /github/workspace/docs/build/html. Outcome: The problem was that the workflow declared the safe directory outside of the docker containter.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

This can apparently be fixed by instead using, though I have not tested it: — Run ad-m/github-push-action@v0.5.0. Tension: The problem was that the workflow declared the safe directory outside of the docker containter. Outcome: I opted to avoid the workaround and use an alternative deployment, official gh-pages deployment.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

wg.exe is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable program in GitHub Actions

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Use Set-Location or cd on its own before calling .\wg.exe, and do not put cd in the pipeline

PERTAIN_TOProblem

the build job takes around 19–20 minutes — I have a GitHub Actions workflow that builds and deploys from the dev environment to the prod environment. Tension: I want to reduce this to about 5–6 minutes maximum.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

installing the obfuscator changes less often than building your project — Change the sequence so you have a container ready to build your project then obfuscate it. Tension: These are the last steps in the Dockerfile. Outcome: juggle commands that reveal same results to execute first.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

This Github Action will help you for that: https://github.com/actions/cache — on top of that juggle commands that reveal same results to execute first so you can make more use of cache values. Outcome: introduce caching.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

"Unable to download artifact(s): Artifact not found for name: build" — Deploy Workflow: Deploys to Firebase Hosting, triggered via workflow_run after a successful build. Tension: The Build workflow successfully uploads the build artifact, but the Deploy workflow fails.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

my github flow alway fail at step Test network connectivity to EC2 host — i want to deploy my app to ec2 instance (linux) with github action. Outcome: Turn out i need to remove this step below and use public ipv4 dns address instead of public ip address for ec2_host.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Turn out i need to remove this step below and use public ipv4 dns address instead of public ip address for ec2_host — Test network connectivity to EC2 host. Outcome: remove this step below and use public ipv4 dns address instead of public ip address for ec2_host.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Tension: You are missing a quotation mark, which ensures the entire secret (including newlines) is correctly written to `.env`.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

the deployment fails silently when my code includes azure-identity — deploy a Python Azure Function using GitHub Actions. Tension: The function works perfectly when deployed through VS Code, but not through GitHub Actions. Outcome: replacing the `Azure/functions-action@v1` task with a pwsh task below.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

When this import is removed, deployment works fine. Outcome: deployment works fine.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

You have to install `cryptography` module with version `44.0.1` — your Azure function. Outcome: able to deploy the function using GitHub actions.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

using a colon seems to break everything — ${{ (inputs.cache-retain == 'true') ? '(with forced cache-retain)' : ''}}. Tension: Is there an equivalent? Outcome: if true: `'Something running (with forced cache-retain)'` if false: `'Something running'` is what I'm looking for.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

`${{ x && 'ifTrue' || 'ifFalse' }}` — Github Actions. Tension: Github Actions doesn't support ternary expressions. Outcome: using this workaround should work.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

For `jobs..steps.name`, the contexts are `github`, `needs`, `strategy`, `matrix`, `job`, `runner`, `env`, `vars`, `secrets`, `steps`, `inputs`. — For `jobs..steps.name`. Tension: you want to use a workflow-level environment variable. Outcome: Those are accessible via the `env` context.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

name: ${{STEP_NAME_01}} ## <<--- This is where I would like to use a variable — Given a GitHub workflow that looks something like this. Tension: Is there a syntax that would let me supply the name of the step as a variable? Outcome: use a variable.
