Error: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir when running with act on full

[eladm-ultrawis]

I have trying to run the following workflow with act:

name: ci2
run-name: PR Check run by ${{ github.actor }}

on:
  workflow_dispatch: # allow manual runs 
jobs:
  linux-clang:
    # runs-on: ubuntu-22.04
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - name: get vcpkg
      uses: lukka/run-vcpkg@v11
      with:
        vcpkgGitCommitId: '9f03078bdcbab3ad8c1e3927c40c3fb48e42501f'
         # This is the default location of the directory containing vcpkg sources.
         # Change it to the right location if needed.
         # vcpkgDirectory: '${{ github.workspace }}/vcpkg'

When I run it on ubuntu-22.04 it succeeds. however if I use the act latest and full image it fails:

act -j linux-clang -P ubuntu-latest=catthehacker/ubuntu:full-latest

output:

i2/linux-clang]   ❓  ::group::Prepare output directories

@eladm-ultrawis thank you for reporting this issue! I think run-vcpkg should not try to write any file outside the GITHUB_WORKSPACE tree.

@eladm-ultrawis please give a try to run-vcpkg@dev/no-out-wks-file-writes, thank you.

[eladm-ultrawis]

@lukka I think it works! thank you for the fix. can we expect a release with this?

[lukka]

@eladm-ultrawis fixed in run-vcpkg@v11 (where v11 is the branch which is always update to last release ) or [email protected] to pin your workflow to this release (where v11.3 is a tag).
