From
Action version:
Specify the action version: actions/setup-python@v5 (SHA:39cd14951b08e74b54015e9e001cdefcf80e669f)
Platform:
- Ubuntu
- macOS
- Windows
Runner type:
- Hosted
- Self-hosted
Tools version:
Python versions 3.11 and 3.12
Repro steps:
- Create or have a GitHub organization with Team or above plan
- Go into your organization settings, in Actions > Runners
- Click the New Runner button and select the New GitHub-hosted runner option.
- In the runner Platform, select Windows ARM64
- In the runner Image, select Microsoft Windows 11 (Preview)
- Give the runner an easy to use name and keep the other options as default or as usable for this test.
- Create a workflow similar to this one to use Python 3.11 and/or Python 3.12 on that new GitHub runner running on Windows ARM64.
- Observe that actions/setup-python fails to extract the downloaded Python image when the workflow is triggered.
Expected behavior:
When using the official Github-hosted runner with the new Windows ARM64 image and actions/setup-python@v5 in a workflow, it should be able to download, extract and install Python 3.11 and 3.12 correctly to be used in various CI/Build automation processes.
Actual behavior:
When using the official Github-hosted runner with the new Windows ARM64 image and actions/setup-python@v5 in a workflow, it fails to extract and properly install Python 3.11 and 3.12 correctly to be used in various CI/Build automation processes.
