test("example", () => expect(1).toBe(2));
test("another", async () => await new Promise(() => {}));
EOF

$ yarn playwright test --reporter html
$ # <Ctrl+C> to interrupt the tests (we have an unresolved promise to simulate a hanging test, so you need an interrupt)
$ # (you should now be looking at the HTML Report in the browser which has automatically been open)
$ # <Ctrl+C> to kill the report server as instructed int he terminal
$ # (observe the CLI process looks to have cleanly exited)

Describe the bug

See repro steps above. If using yarn with playwright test, the HTML Report server sometimes gets orphaned. This means subsequent uses fail. (lsof -i :9323 with a kill on the process gets you unstuck.)

I think this is a yarn v1 issue (yarnpkg/yarn#4667), but haven't yet confirmed that it is fixed with v2. If someone already has v2 installed, please try out the repro steps and let me know! If it's confirmed as a bug in yarn, please close this issue!

Filed so if someone else hits it, the error is searchable. Possibly relates #10010.

I had the same issue, also using yarn v1.22.15. Killing the process solved it.

Thanks for filing! I'll close this in favor yarnpkg/yarn#4667
