Can't make my robot running in nomad

Nomad
1

Hi,
This is my first day with nomad and I’m stuggling to make it work but seems I’m missing lot of knowledge over here.
Actually my robot.nomad looks like this :

job "robot_Sangoma" {
  datacenters = ["dc1"]
  
  group "robots" {
    task "sangoma" {
      driver = "raw_exec"
      config {
 				command = "D:\\RobotFramework\\run_sangoma.bat"
				args    = [""]
      }
      
    }
  }
}

but when I’m submitting the job, it fails with the error below :

Error: "C:\\Users\\albel\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\NomadClient3864200187\\e3f02f3b-e0f7-7d8d-4516-30968dc37b67\\sangoma\\robot.yaml": open C:\Users\albel\AppData\Local\Temp\NomadClient3864200187\e3f02f3b-e0f7-7d8d-4516-30968dc37b67\sangoma\robot.yaml: The system cannot find the file specified.

Of course robot.yaml file is located in D:\Robotframwork and that why nomad is looking at the wrong place. But how can I tell (via robot.nomad) to nomad that my working directory where all needed files are, is D:\Robotframwork.

Actualy I executing run_sangoma.bat that look like this :

cd D:\RobotFramework
C:\rcc\rcc run -e devdata\env.json

What I’m missing here ?

Thanks for your feedback

Off the top of my head, I could recommend wrapping the command code as a script, maybe?

where you do all the basic chdir etc. and then as the last command launch the actual application.

on that topic: :slight_smile:

Thanks for the suggestion.
For me it’s a kind of showstopper as a lot of binaries depend on other files that have to be onboarded as well. The requested enhancement still open since 2017 !!! I’m sure I’m not the only one who faced this issue.
