@efletcherPIFSC this happens sometimes with the runs. I think its actually due to github not being able to connect and download the ss_osx file. I re-ran that test (just the mac-os job) and it passed this time.

I'm closing this issue, if this error occurs in the future you can either re-run the failed job manually, or wait to see if it passes the job the next time it is triggered.

Re-opening this issue. I found a github action that will automatically re-try a step so I am going to try adding this into the workflow to see if it will help avoid this error.
