Error with simple icons

[pajaro1966]

I've met an issue with Material's deployment on GitHub's pages. Since they have migrated to Ubuntu 24.04 my actions don't work and deployment doesn't work either:

The say they have migrated to Ubuntu 24.04, and for some reason it doesn't work for me.

actions/runner-images#10636

I've tried to solve the problem changing in my ci.yml "runs -on: ubuntu-latest" to "runs -on: ubuntu-22.04", which seems to be the previous LT release, but the problems persist:

Do you know how to solve the problem? Do I have to change something else in the ci.yml file? I copied the content of this file from a tutorial and don't really understand the parameters contained in it:

Everything worked just fine four days ago.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi @pajaro1966

This issue doesn't seem to have anything to do with Github Actions, as I just tested this and it works for me. Could you please give us the logs of the GitHub Runner?

Maybe it is a problem with the mkdocs.yml configuration.

Maybe it is a problem with the mkdocs.yml configuration.

VS Code tells me that this cache could be invalid in the ci.yml:

key: mkdocs-material-${{ env.cache_id }}

Could you provide a minimal reproduction otherwise I can't help.

You must have runners, otherwise it wouldn't work at all, perhaps the error is actually a message "no runner available", but we don't know that ^^

Press this button to see the full log of the deploy task executed by a runner. Also the warning said that the ubuntu-latest will change the version of Ubuntu in the future, not that it changed it already.

Get the log and upload the file here

VS Code tells me that this cache could be invalid in the ci.yml:

False positive, the cache key is like this since over a year, so it's your local machine pointing out a missing variable, or doesn't understand this syntax, as the declaration was in the previous step.

This is the log archive:

jinja2.exceptions.TemplateNotFound: '.icons/simple/linkedin.svg' not found in search paths: '/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.12.8/x64/lib/python3.12/site-packages/material/templates', '/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.12.8/x64/lib/python3.12/site-packages/mkdocs/templates'

Somewhere in your project you're using simple/linkedin as an icon, perhaps the social icons at the bottom of the page.
It can't find the icon, so if it worked before, it's not available anymore under that name from the simpleicon pack or it was removed entirely.

It's not available from here, my suggestion is to use another variant.

Thank you! That was the problem: a problem with the icons. I do really appreciate your help. Thank you for your time.
Best regards,

The best of all is that I know where to search for a solution next time.
