I am trying to run a CI/CD pipeline through GitHub Actions. If it finishes within 10 minutes – there are no problems. But as soon as it runs for 10 minutes it gets terminated with an error:

Run Command Timeout
Error: Process completed with exit code 1.

If I re-run failed jobs – the process takes less than 10 minutes and is usually successful.

I tried adding

timeout-minutes: 100.

I tried dividing the job into separate granular steps.
I tried adding for loop to print out a simple message while the job is running.

Here’s my original yml file:

name: Build And Deploy (GCP)

   
on: 
  push:
    branches:
      - development
jobs:
  build-and-deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    name: Deploy the latest changes from dev to prod
    timeout-minutes: 100

    steps:
      - name: Checkout the files
        uses: actions/checkout@v2

      - name: Deploy to main server
        uses: easingthemes/ssh-deploy@main

            export PYTHON=$(which python3)
            yarn install           
            cd ${{ secrets.TARGET_DIR_DEV }}
            cp ./server/docker-compose.prod.yml -f .
