Not in gzip format

[alexander-scott]

Hi, I am getting an error when running the setup-java step in the following configuration:

    - uses: actions/setup-java@v1
      with:
        java-version: '12.x'

The error I get is the following:

Run actions/setup-java@v1
/bin/tar xzC /home/runner/work/_temp/temp_1966052730 -f /home/runner/work/_temp/7c187b07-8201-4bf2-b87d-247013d1c81d

gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
/bin/tar: Child returned status 1
/bin/tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
##[error]The process '/bin/tar' failed with exit code 2
##[error]Node run failed with exit code 1

After doing some googling, this looks to be the most relatable problem, but I notice it's not being downloaded the Oracle site, rather from this site so I don't think cookies are the issue. Has anyone else also encountered this error?

I also see this issue. Here for example https://github.com/starship/starship/pull/383/checks?check_run_id=240449201

Experiencing the same for java-version: 1.8 as well.

Looks like some added .sig files (.tar.gz.sig) on the CDN were being confused for the .tar.gz files by installer.ts. The .sig files have been removed from the CDN for now, but are the tool-cache seems to have cached them.

@giltene I've just kicked off a build and the install worked correctly this time, thanks for the fix.
