This job is stuck because you don't have any active runnersCI/CD

GitLab CI: This job is stuck because you don't have any active runners online or available with any of these tags assigned to them

No GitLab runner can pick up the job — runners are offline, the job’s tags don’t match any runner, or shared runners are disabled.

Cache not found / Unable to reserve cacheCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Cache not found for input keys: npm-Linux-abc123 / Failed to save: Unable to reserve cache with key, another job may be creating this cache

`actions/cache` either found nothing for your key (restore miss) or could not save because another run is already saving the same…

exceeded the maximum execution timeCI/CD

GitHub Actions: The job running on runner GitHub Actions 12 has exceeded the maximum execution time of 360 minutes

A job ran longer than its time limit — your `timeout-minutes`, or the 6-hour (360 minute) platform limit — and was cancelled.

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…

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.

No space left on device (runner)CI/CD

GitHub Actions: System.IO.IOException: No space left on device — the runner's disk is full

The job filled the runner's disk (about 14 GB free on standard Linux runners): large Docker images, caches, build outputs or test…

API rate limit exceededCI/CD

GitHub Actions: HttpError: API rate limit exceeded for installation ID 123456 / secondary rate limit

Your workflow (or an action it uses) made too many GitHub API calls and was throttled with 403/429.

No hosted parallelismAzure

Azure Pipelines: No hosted parallelism has been purchased or granted

The Azure DevOps organization has no Microsoft-hosted parallel jobs, so pipelines can’t run on hosted agents.

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).

The process '/usr/bin/git' failed with exit code 128CI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: The process '/usr/bin/git' failed with exit code 128

A git command inside the workflow failed — usually authentication to a private repo/submodule, a missing ref, or pushing without…

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…

workflow not triggeringCI/CD

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

A workflow file exists but no run appears — the trigger filters do not match, the file is not on the right branch, or the workflo…

GitLab CI: ERROR: Job failed: execution took longer than 1h0m0s seconds

The job ran past its timeout (project default is 60 minutes) and GitLab killed it.

Too long with no outputCI/CD

CircleCI: Too long with no output (exceeded 10m0s): context deadline exceeded

A CircleCI step printed nothing for 10 minutes, so CircleCI assumed it hung and cancelled it.

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…

OOMKilledKubernetes

Kubernetes: OOMKilled (exit code 137)

The container used more memory than its limit, and the kernel killed it.

heap out of memoryNode.js

FATAL ERROR: Reached heap limit Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory

The V8 heap hit its limit — a large build (webpack, tsc, Next.js) needs more memory, or the app leaks.

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.

Node.js 16 actions are deprecatedCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Node.js 16 actions are deprecated. Please update the following actions to use Node.js 20: actions/checkout@v3

A warning that actions in your workflow still run on an old Node.js runtime; update them to current major versions.

set-output command is deprecatedCI/CD

GitHub Actions: The `set-output` command is deprecated and will be disabled soon. Please upgrade to using Environment Files

Workflows (or old actions) still use `::set-output`, which must be replaced by writing to the `$GITHUB_OUTPUT` file.

Cannot connect to the Docker daemon (GitLab)CI/CD

GitLab CI: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at tcp://docker:2375. Is the docker daemon running?

A docker-in-docker job could not reach the `docker:dind` service — it is not started, not privileged, or the TLS/host settings do…

failed to pull image (GitLab)CI/CD

GitLab CI: ERROR: Job failed: failed to pull image "registry.example.com/app:latest" with specified policies [always]: access forbidden

The runner could not pull the job's Docker image — authentication, a wrong name or tag, or a registry rate limit.

Failed to create deployment (Pages not enabled)CI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Failed to create deployment (status: 404) — Ensure GitHub Pages has been enabled

The Pages deploy step cannot create a deployment because Pages is not enabled for the repository, or is not set to "GitHub Action…

Waiting for next available executorCI/CD

Jenkins: Still waiting to schedule task — Waiting for next available executor / 'agent1' is offline

A Jenkins build is queued because no executor with the required label is free or the agent is offline.

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.

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.

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…
