Hello,

Sometimes 'guix deploy' ends up failing near the end, with what looks
like:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix deploy: sending 180 store items (1,094 MiB) to 'myhost'...
[...] (progress bar)
guix deploy: error: failed to deploy mymachine: failed to start Guile on
remote host 'myhost'
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Upon retrying the same 'guix deploy' command, it usually succeeds, e.g.:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix deploy: sending 8 store items (5 MiB) to 'myhost'...
guix deploy: successfully deployed mymachine
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thanks,

Maxim

I’ve seen it too, and I think it might be the same issue as described
here:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix/maintenance.git/commit/?id=cdef930632d0a94b0d92bf4f5fc7227e75c6eb10

If that happens again, could you log in the target machine as root and
run:

  find ~/.cache/guile | xargs ls -lrtd

That way you’ll see if some .go files have just been compiled, and also
if there are temporary .go.XYZ files in there (stemming from an
interrupted compilation process due to the timeout.)

Thanks,
Ludo’.
