I'm getting "Extracting cache... Unable to unpack cache"

[softlion]

I'm trying to get the cache to work.

In the Fetching app sources step I'm seeing:

Extracting cache...
Unable to unpack cache

And I get no build time improvement.

The previous build successfully cached items in the Cleaning Up step:

Starting to cache dependencies

Creating cache archive...
Created cache archive in 34 seconds

Build id: 64352306935c6e0324ed1915
Previous build ID which updated the cache: 64350d52bf644ba0f1edc891

Any clue ?

Hi @softlion,
Caching is limited to 1GB to avoid potential performance issues. You can delete older caches and it should work alright.

Can we share the cache of 2 flows ?

[himesh-cm]

Caching is workflow specific, and the overall limit is 1GB.

Ok so I have 2 caches of 541.50 MB
I want to make only one cache common to the 2 workflows I have.
As I still see the messages:

Extracting cache...
Unable to unpack cache

[himesh-cm]

Hi @softlion, cache cannot be shared among workflows.
You can delete both caches and then when you run the next workflow, it will be cached.

Ok ty, so it's useless for me, as I need both workflows. The same 520MB of nugets will be downloaded at each run then.
