CodeQL autobuild hangs forever on failure #4008
Description
It seems in special cases when CodeQL autobuild fails it can reach the state where it's just waiting for Github to kill the job. This can be few hours.
Can you make the autobuild fail on failure, instead of hanging forever?
Here in this example it failed in few seconds but then was Cancelled 2 hours later by Github.
Run github/codeql-action/autobuild@99df26d4f13ea111d4ec1a7dddef6063f76b97e9

Yes the failure is @jketema
also
It clearly said the was exit status 2 but continuing anyway. That's what we are trying to prevent here. on exit status it should really exit.

This is by design of autobuild. Users might have faulty Makefiles that we should actually not be running, so when it fails we continue with other approaches that might build the application. So that there's a failure in the output doesn't tell me whether that failure was actually relevant in any way.
The above also means that from the information you provided I cannot tell whether continuing was the right approach in your case, and that's definitely not something we can solve programmatically.
The above brings me back to my original question: it's not just hanging in
go get -v ./...?jprecuch commentedon Jul 17, 2026
Thanks for explanation @jketema.
Is there some hardening codeql can do on this? For example fail when go get -v ./... hangs or ability to stop on error? maybe hidden under some inputs flag for easy on/off?
jketema commentedon Jul 17, 2026
Ideally we should let
go get -v ./...time out at some point, but I don't know it it has that ability. Let me investigate.jprecuch commentedon Jul 17, 2026
Thanks. For workaround we now added 30 minutes limit to autobuild. It does not solve the hang but eliminates 2h hanging time to 1/4.

The alternative would be to switch to an advanced setup with build-mode "manual" where you create a workflow and tell it exactly how it should build your code. I do appreciate that this creates a maintenance burden that you might not want to have.
Follow-up question: do you have any idea what
go get -v ./...might be hanging on in your case?jprecuch commentedon Aug 4, 2026
We did resolve the issue with go get by actually fixing the steps before it so it never reaches that backout to go get @jketema
However now it seems it hangs randomly when it should start the extractor command. Is there some more debug we can get directly from autobuild why it could hang randomly?
working reaches the same step in about 2min:

Hi @jprecuch 👋🏻
Would you be able to share a link to the repository / workflow run where this is happening? If it is a private repository, can you open a support ticket mentioning this issue so that you can share the full logs etc there.
