What you expected to see, versus what you actually saw

Expected:

• job completes successfully after opening a PR. Job/action is then in a completed state, or if not then a warning state due to encountered errors
• Subsequent job starts on scheduled
• New job can be started manually by kicking the action

Actual:

• Job restarted into a queued state after hitting a FileUpdater error
• Queued job can't be cancelled with the cancel button
• New job can't be started

I have a similar issue that dependabot stuck with Queued status about 2 weeks!!!

@jakecoffman Can I pull you in to this one? I don't see anything specific to NuGet that would leave the jobs stuck in a queued state.

[MatthewSteeples]

I hit this one yesterday too and my build is still stuck. No new ones will queue up while this one is in the Queued state

Happens the same to me! Is there any solution for this? It's very annoying to have dependabot jobs stuck in queued state...

[purplesword]

Any updates or maybe workarounds? I am facing same issue and I can't even cancel the queue-ed dependabot job...

[GersonDiketama]

I'm facing same issue and my flows are just stuck with no errors for hours Is there a bug into the usage of daily interval?

+1 pip update job timed out - tried to rerun and is stuck queued and I can't cancel it because it "failed to cancel workflow"
