Xvfb missing

[dapo-maraboo]

I keep getting this error locally using cypress-io/github-action@v6 what am I missing? I thought it should already come with all the required dependencies

Are you using a GitHub-hosted runner or a self-hosted runner? Am I right that when you say "locally using cypress-io/github-action@v6" you mean that you are using a self-hosted runner?

GitHub-hosted ubuntu-22.04 has xvfb 2:21.1.4-2ubuntu1.7~22.04.5 pre-installed (see Installed apt packages).

If you are using a self-hosted runner, then you will need to make sure that the dependencies listed under https://on.cypress.io/required-dependencies for Ubuntu are already installed on your runner:

apt-get install libgtk2.0-0 libgtk-3-0 libgbm-dev libnotify-dev libnss3 libxss1 libasound2 libxtst6 xauth xvfb

Thanks @MikeMcC399 I look into your suggestions
When I said locally I meant using the act package to run the ci process locally on my machine (Macbook Intel chip).

Good. If you still have an issue, please explain what command you are using to run CI.

When I said locally I meant using the act package to run the ci process locally on my machine (Macbook Intel chip).

cypress-io/github-action@v6 only runs on a GitHub runner so there may be a misunderstanding.

Still having some issues, cypress cant seem to connect to the api server within the CI
