pritunl-client: command not found

[JosueCL11]

Good afternoon, a question, I have been using githubaction: nathanielvarona/pritunl-client-github-action@v1, and everything had been working correctly, but until today it gave me this error, is there something I need?

This is mi definition :

I'm getting the same error across all my actions that use this step:

      - name: Setup Pritunl Profile and Start VPN Connection
        uses: nathanielvarona/pritunl-client-github-action@v1
        with:
          profile-file: ${{ secrets.PRITUNL_PROFILE_FILE }}
          profile-pin: ${{ secrets.PRITUNL_PROFILE_PIN }}

Hello @JosueCL11 and @Alex-Munro, thank you for reporting the issue.

This issue is related to the GitHub Actions Apt Repositories List and Cache.
This is solely from the GitHub Actions Virtual Environment Images releases issue.

There is a fix for this, however, I need to validate and fully test it.
(As much as possible I won't touch anything in the GitHub action Virtual Environment to maintain the integrity of this action)

For now, I would suggest using a specific client installation. This method obtains the pritunl-client package from the https://github.com/pritunl/pritunl-client-electron/releases instead of the https://repo.pritunl.com/stable/apt/dists/jammy/.

Here is an example:

- name: Setup Pritunl Profile
  id: pritunl-connection
  uses: nathanielvarona/pritunl-client-github-action@v1
  with:
    profile-file: ${{ secrets.PRITUNL_PROFILE_FILE }}
    profile-pin: ${{ secrets.PRITUNL_PROFILE_PIN }}
    client-version: 1.3.3883.60 # <-- PLEASE ADD THIS INPUT IN YOUR ACTION

My tests earlier:
Test # 1: Failed - Installation using Apt Registry
Test # 2: Passing - Specify the Client Version
https://github.com/nathanielvarona/gha-pub-test-repo/actions/workflows/connection-tests-manual-install-only.yml

Let me know if this fixes the issue on your side.

Again good day and have a nice weekend.

UPDATES:

Installation Test

As of this moment testing, the Packager Manager (Apt Repo) Based installation is now working https://github.com/nathanielvarona/gha-pub-test-repo/actions/runs/10122164747.

I haven't changed anything in our code, the issues you might experiencing could either be from the GitHub Actions Virtual Environment https://github.com/actions/runner-images or from the Pritul Apt Repo https://repo.pritunl.com/stable/apt/.

Recommendation

Still, I would suggest using the Action input client-version and specifying the later/latest version of desired. To install the pritunl-client from the Pritunl Client GitHub Releases https://github.com/pritunl/pritunl-client-electron/releases.

Thanks,
Nil

Thanks @nathanielvarona!

Adding the client-version worked for me
