Hi I'm using Jenkins 1.633. master on windows slave on mac os x El capitan. Mac os X slave is started from LaunchDaemons plist.

I'm trying to execute ant script on mac os x slave but jenkins does not find ant.

I installed ant using brew. ant -version from terminal shows correct version.

If I use Invoke Ant task - it says me that cannot find program.

When I start using shell script it shows me a message that ant in unknown command.

How to execute ant on mac os x slave?

I forgot to mention that I was trying to set node tool path for ant but it seems it ignore it.

You might need to check whether that shell session contains the right environment path variables

path environment variable via bashrc doesn't work as expected since jenkins ssh slaves run as non interactive ssh so you will need to configure your /etc/ssh/config accordingly, I guess so.

Thanks for response. You are tight the issue is the PATH does not contains /usr/local/bin.

I do not start slave using ssh. And I cannot find a place where I must set correct PATH environment variable. Even If I set this variable for slave node I have the same result. I do not understand where PATH variable is set. becuase everywhere I see in global paths /usr/local/bin exists.

Probably slave tries to get PATH from Windows master?
