deprecated version of actions/upload-artifactCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: This request has been automatically failed because it uses a deprecated version of `actions/upload-artifact: v3`

set-output command is deprecatedCI/CD

Credentials could not be loadedCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Credentials could not be loaded, please check your action inputs: Could not load credentials from any providers

`aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials` found no usable credentials — no keys, no role to assume, or the OIDC token was not reque…

The set-env command is disabledCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Unable to process command '::set-env name=X::y' successfully. The `set-env` command is disabled

A script or old action uses `::set-env` / `::add-path`, which GitHub disabled; write to `$GITHUB_ENV` and `$GITHUB_PATH` instead.

A dependency imports Node’s built-in punycode module, deprecated since Node 21.

npm ci out of syncnpm

npm ERR! `npm ci` can only install packages when your package.json and package-lock.json are in sync

package-lock.json doesn’t match package.json, so npm ci refuses to install.

Unrecognized named-valueCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Unrecognized named-value: 'secrets'. Located at position 1 within expression: secrets.API_KEY

You used an expression context (`secrets`, `env`, `matrix`, `steps`…) in a place of the workflow where that context is not availa…

GitHub Actions: workflow does not run on push / pull_request / workflow_dispatch button missing

Context access might be invalidCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Context access might be invalid: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID (editor warning for secrets/vars)

The GitHub Actions editor or extension flags a `secrets.X` or `vars.X` reference that is not defined in the repository — usually…

Uploading artifacts: too large archiveCI/CD

GitLab CI: ERROR: Uploading artifacts as "archive" to coordinator... too large archive id=123 responseStatus=413 Request Entity Too Large

The job produced an artifact bigger than the instance or project's maximum artifact size.

Job depends on artifacts that have expiredCI/CD

GitLab CI: This job could not start because it could not retrieve the needed artifacts (dependencies: build).

A job needs artifacts from an earlier job, but that job failed, was skipped or its artifacts have expired or been deleted.

Unable to process file commandCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Unable to process file command 'output' successfully. Invalid format 'x'

A line written to `$GITHUB_OUTPUT`, `$GITHUB_ENV` or `$GITHUB_STATE` is not in `name=value` form — usually a multi-line value wit…

sts:AssumeRole deniedAWS

The caller can’t assume the role — either its own policy doesn’t allow sts:AssumeRole, or the role’s trust policy doesn’t trust t…

Invalid workflow fileCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Invalid workflow file: .github/workflows/ci.yml#L12 — You have an error in your yaml syntax on line 12

GitHub could not parse your workflow YAML, so no run was created — usually indentation, a tab, or an unquoted special character.

secrets not available in pull requests from forksCI/CD

GitHub Actions: secret is empty on pull_request from a fork or Dependabot (Secrets are not passed to workflows triggered by a fork)

Secrets are intentionally withheld from workflows that run for pull requests from forks and, by default, for Dependabot PRs — so…

Input required and not suppliedCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Input required and not supplied: token

An action needs an input (token, ssh-key, api-key…) and the `with:` value is empty or missing — often because the secret does not…

Process completed with exit code 1CI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Process completed with exit code 1.

A `run:` command returned a non-zero status, so the step (and job) failed — the real cause is printed in the log lines above.

Process completed with exit code 127CI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Process completed with exit code 127 — command not found

The shell could not find the command you tried to run: it is not installed on the runner, not on PATH, or misspelled.

concurrent_requests_limitAPI

API Error: Too many concurrent requests (concurrency limit reached)

You have more requests in flight at once than the API allows for your key — even if your requests-per-minute rate is fine.

Resource not accessible by integrationCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Resource not accessible by integration (403)

The workflow’s GITHUB_TOKEN doesn’t have the permission needed for that API call (comment, push, create release, write packages).

Process completed with exit code 137CI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Process completed with exit code 137 (Killed — out of memory)

The command was killed by the system with SIGKILL (128 + 9), almost always because the runner ran out of memory.
