GitHub Enterprise Server 3.11.5 compatibility

We have left a bug slip in the hot patch logic of GHES – 3.11.5 is one of the patch impacted (and not the only one). Documentation is on the way and support is already aware and can assist you if you prefer.

The workaround is to run the following commands on all your Pages fileservers:

if [ -d "$CHROOT_PATH/data/pages-untar" ] ; then
  rm -rf "$CHROOT_PATH/data/pages-untar"
fi
pages_untar_image_tag="$(cat "$CHROOT_PATH/data/docker-image-tags/pages_untar_image_tag")"
id="$(docker create "pages-untar:$pages_untar_image_tag")"
sudo docker cp "$id:/data/pages-untar" "$BASE_PATH/$CHROOT_PATH/data/pages-untar/"
docker rm "$id"

This won't cause downtime, need a restart or reboot of anything. It impacts only Pages builds that run within Actions (e.g. with a custom workflow like you are doing here).

@yoannchaudet thx for sharing this. We've contacted GHES support and we've applied the fix. It worked :)
If you have any official issue for this bug, I would appreciate to follow it to know when this is officially fixed.
Thx once again :)

Unfortunately not. Except manual deployment using a "pages" branch.

This issue suddenly started also to us, we're running GHES 3.10.7... @brookman have you found any fix or workaround?
