  jobs:
    build:

      steps:
        - uses: actions/checkout@v2

• Error prints

  A job started hook has been configured by the self-hosted runner administrator
  Run '/opt/hook_start.sh'
    shell: /usr/bin/bash -e {0}

@thboop
Thank you for the feedback.
I suggest those steps(Set up runner and Complete runner) not to affect the result of the entire job.

I am using the latest version '2.301.1' for self hosted runner but still facing the same issue. I have also tried specifying the working directory at job level.
@fhammerl - Any ideas?
