[fastpages] Initial commit - Setup fail

Hi.

Yesterday I follow the tutorial How to create your Free Data Science Blog on Github with Fastpages from Fastai and was able to create a blog without any issues.

Today I deleted the repository and tried to repeat the process without success.

remote: Permission to fmussari/ConcreteForm.git denied to github-actions[bot].

[81](https://github.com/fmussari/ConcreteForm/runs/6196962136?check_suite_focus=true#step:5:81)Error: Process completed with exit code 128.

Link to actions/logs:

Here some captures of the failure:

I haven’t tried this myself but isn’t the repository supposed to be the blog? (I’m actually confused about this.) Or did you mean you removed the old test repo and it doesn’t work for the new blog with a new repo?

Could you please help me?

You can find actions here.

Since I don’t know anything about FastPages, please forgive me if I give you the wrong advice, but I see the following message.

The setup instructions say you need to enable 3rd party acctions

If you are not seeing a PR, please make sure you have third party actions enabled in your organization: Settings → Actions → Actions Permissions → Enable local and third party Actions for this repository

Maybe that’s the problem?

Yes, I removed the repository/blog that was successfully created the first time.
After that I have not being able to create another one. Tried different names, logged out/in, different browser. Google it.

Nothing had helped. :frowning:

Maybe here lays the solution Github action bot pushing to gh-pages causes page build to fail

GitHub Pages site builds aren’t able to be triggered by bot users or integrations that push to your repository. This is to prevent excessive resource usage and abuse of GitHub Pages systems.

But right now I’m looking on how to implement it.

Thanks

Thank you.

Maybe not exactly what you pointed out (I though it was related to Organizations).

But it made me look again under Settings → Actions → General and then checked on

Allow GitHub Actions to approve pull requests.

I then rerun the job, and it went fine just like the first time!

Thanks

I was having the same issue even though Allow GitHub Actions to approve pull requests was checked, in my case, what I was missing was to give Read and write permissions to workflow actions, so make sure you select that as well :).
