About these errors
Out of disk
Out of memory
You may see these errors when running {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %}.
Confirming the cause of the problem
You can review the recommended hardware resources for running {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} to make sure the runners that you use for {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} meet those requirements. For more information, see AUTOTITLE.
Fixing the problem
{% ifversion ghes %}
You may need to increase the memory or disk space available on the runners used for {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} analysis.
{% else %}
If the runners you're using don't meet the recommended hardware requirements, consider using either {% data variables.actions.hosted_runners %} or self-hosted runners.
{% data variables.actions.hosted_runner_caps %}s are {% data variables.product.company_short %}-hosted runners with more RAM, CPU, and disk space than standard runners. These runners have the runner application and other tools preinstalled. For more information about {% data variables.actions.hosted_runners %} and {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %}, see AUTOTITLE and AUTOTITLE.
Self-hosted runners offer more control of hardware, operating system, and software tools than {% data variables.product.company_short %}-hosted runners can provide. For more information, see AUTOTITLE. {% endif %}
