GitHub actions workflow fails for self hosted runners

[vishwas-agi]

Hi Team,

We have setup the dynamic self hosted runners from the instructions in this repository and it was working fine all these days, but we are having a strange issue from 3 days with our self hosted runners workflow fails at the checkout step.

Error we are facing
/opt/actions-runner/externals/node20/bin/node: /lib64/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.27' not found (required by /opt/actions-runner/externals/node20/bin/node)

If you could suggest on this please.

Regards,

It should be due to Github upgrading the node version of actions to 20
https://github.blog/changelog/label/actions/
At present, this problem can be solved by adding environment variables. ACTIONS ALLOW-USE-UNSECURE NODE VERSION=true, but there may still be problems after October. Is there any way to keep using node16

All examples in examples/multi-runner are working. What base image are you using?

Amazon Linux 2 OS we had used in the dynamic runner setup.

use centos7.9 same
What needs to be changed in the terraform or lambdas, any idea on that ?

Also you had mentioned temporary workaround, did you get it working ?

Yes, but is there a long-term solution?

I would suggest to run on Ubuntu when possible, same as GItHub does. Alternative that works with most of the actions is amazon linux 2023.
