Request timeout error for version of Gradle that I never used

[eygraber]

I randomly get the following error using v1:

Error: Request timeout: /distributions/gradle-6.8-rc-4-wrapper.jar.sha256

I currently use 7.1.1 and never used 6.80-rc-4

How regularly do you see this issue?

[eygraber]

I haven't seen it since filing the issue, and I only saw it a few times overall.

I started facing similar issues today. My repo uses gradle version 7.2 and wrapper-validation-action@v1, and in logs I have seen Error: Request timeout: /distributions/gradle-7.0-rc-2-wrapper.jar.sha256 Error: Request timeout: /distributions/gradle-6.5-wrapper.jar.sha256

The same in Lucene: Lucene is on an entirely different gradle version than the one shown here.

I get this error as well. We use Gradle 7.1.1

Run gradle/wrapper-validation-action@v1
  with:
    min-wrapper-count: 1
    allow-snapshots: false
  env:
    LC_ALL: en_US.UTF-8
Error: connect ETIMEDOUT 104.18.165.99:443

It happend randomly. Because we run a Matrix of Java 11 and 16 with ubuntu_latest and windows_latest, we get this error almost every time.

@eskatos are we keeping the existing connection open when we retry? Should we try to make sure we're opening a new connection when we retry? Thoughts?

This should be fixed by #167
