[BUG] Error: Failed to download chromium v1000

We have started seeing intermittent issues while trying to download Playwright in our Azure Pipelines:

Are there any known issues with the infrastructure hosting Playwright? Thank you!

Seems like this is happening again at the moment:

Output:

It seems so basic that I feel silly even asking but… don’t you fetch from somewhere that has redundancy across continents?

Because at the moment, Azure seems to experience an outage only in one location:

Starting at 09:50 UTC on 07 Sep 2022, a subset of customers using Azure Cosmos DB in North Europe may experience issues accessing services.

UPDATE I suppose the outage is more severe than previously reported and spans continents… (Screenshot taken from this status page - which is a bit different than the one mentioned above)

As mentioned here, this probably won’t be an issue starting with 1.22.0 anymore.

@rabellino12 At least in their “next” branch, that runner now specifies the following:

playwright@^1.14.0:
  version "1.25.2"

Might be worthwhile checking whether that version is up to date in your own lockfile.
