Description:
I'm occasionally getting the following error when this Action is ran:
Action version:
v5.1.0
Platform:
Runner type:
Tools version:
3.12.3
Repro steps:
Repo is on GHES, so not able to link to it.
setup-python
action.Not sure if the complexities of GHES are the cause, though I have seen some indications searching all of github.com that at least 1 other person has gotten this error before when using this action.
They potentially say it's related to rate limiting, though the error, at least to me, isn't clear enough to indicate that.
This also might be relevant:
setup-python
is one of the default bundled Actions with GHES, so my understanding is the that the runner should only be calling out to github.com for accessing the python-versions maniest and corresponding release.Expected behavior:
Here is what I expect, for the Action to download the release tar.
Actual behavior:
The action fails to find the version available for downloading.
