Description

Dear team, I apologise if I'm in the wrong place. Couldn't find any relevant link.
Trying to use actions/cache@3 or actions/cache/restore@v3 got this message:

The cache was saved with a separate workflow and on the place.

GitHub Enterprise Server 3.8.8

Runs-on: self-hosted

Might it be a runner settings issue related? Could you please give me a hint on how to resolve this?
Thanks in advance.
Regards, Denis.

Research direction

Start with the reported actions/cache@3 and actions/cache/restore@v3 usage on GitHub Enterprise Server 3.8.8 with a self-hosted runner, and review the certificate error shown in the screenshots. The issue does not name a source file or test; done would require identifying whether runner settings cause the failed restore and documenting a confirmed resolution.
