Install Firefox fails

[ttomaszewski-litify]

In the last 1 day, "Install Firefox" step fails. We are using install-browsers: true in the configuration.

seems like I'm not the only one

Ran it multiple times, but this firefox always fails

This is due to the issue CircleCI-Public/browser-tools-orb#122.

It requires an update in this repo to https://github.com/CircleCI-Public/browser-tools-orb/releases/tag/v1.5.1, currently using:

circleci-orb/src/@orb.yml

Line 13 in d2c7c66

browser-tools: circleci/[email protected]

• Due to Orb publishing does not work for contributor PRs #451 this would best be addressed by a member of the Cypress.io team.

Workaround is to pin the firefox version to v134 or below in your config.yml as mentioned here

- browser-tools/install-browser-tools:
    firefox-version: "134.0.2" # FIXME: hotfix for firefox install failing from version 135 (https://github.com/cypress-io/circleci-orb/issues/504)

[MikeMcC399]

      - cypress/install:
          install-browsers: true

now fails in https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress-example-kitchensink for both Chrome and Firefox tests.

• For example chore(deps): update dependency cypress to version 14.0.2 🌟 cypress-example-kitchensink#926

@ParallelUniv3rse could you help me figure out where that pinned version directive should sit in our config.yml?

we're encountering the same problem and i'm not familiar with circleci...

version: 2.1

orbs:
  aws-cli: circleci/[email protected]
  node: circleci/[email protected]
  slack: circleci/[email protected]
  cypress: cypress-io/[email protected]

parameters:
  environment:
    type: string
    default: ""
  sandbox:
    type: string
    default: ""

workflows:
  test:
    when:
      and:
        - equal: ["", << pipeline.parameters.environment >>]
        - equal: ["", << pipeline.parameters.sandbox >>]
    jobs:
      - cypress/run:
        install-browsers: true
        cypress-command: "npx cypress run --component --browser chrome"
        filters:
          branches:
            ignore:
              - release
              - main

@fathom-alastair , try this:

orbs:
  aws-cli: circleci/[email protected]
  node: circleci/[email protected]
  slack: circleci/[email protected]
  cypress: cypress-io/[email protected]
  browser-tools: circleci/[email protected]

workflows:
  test:
    when:
      and:
        - equal: ["", << pipeline.parameters.environment >>]
        - equal: ["", << pipeline.parameters.sandbox >>]
    jobs:
      - browser-tools/install-browser-tools:
          firefox-version: "134.0.2"
      - cypress/run:
        cypress-command: "npx cypress run --component --browser chrome"
        filters:
          branches:
            ignore:
              - release
              - main

If you decide not to pin the Firefox version, you'll have to wait for the hotfix.

We released an update to browser-tools in our 3.4.3 orb. Please update to v3.4.3 to test that this fixes the issue.
