Still getting npx failures on cert generation with version 25.1.1

[pnwstevan]

Hi there,

First - appreciate this action, in general we find it super helpful.

We've been suffering from cert creation issues for some time, so I was super excited to the fix @danmichaelo mentioned in the latest release. Unfortunately after upgrading to version 25.1.1 of the action we're still seeing the same failure:

Error! We were unable to generate a certificate Error: The process '/usr/local/bin/npx' failed with exit code 1

Even more unfortunate, it used to be 1-2 times a week lately it's 1-2 times/day. Vercel support hasn't been much help.

Any ideas, or anything we could do to test, debug or help try and resolve this?

Thanks in advance! 🙏

Hi @pnwstevan, we're also still getting this error every now and then, so seems like retrying didn't help much after all. I've been able to reproduce the problem using the vercel cli locally on my computer several minutes after the error happened in CI. Once it even lasted for hours.

Reminds me that I should follow up on a Vercel support case that I forgot about. Let me know if you make progress with Vercel support, I'll do the same.

In any case, it seems like there is not much vercel-action can do about this.
