Rundeck Windows job always successful

[RundeckAgi]

Hello,

I'm using Rundeck version 3.4.0 installed on Centos 8 server.

I installed WinRM Node Executor Python plugin version 2.0.12 to run jobs on a Windows 2016 server.

A simple .bat job that tries to delete files on my Windows server is always Successful, even if the file does not exist.

However, in the log file I have the error 'Could Not Find C:...'

Same job running on a Linux server with ssh fails when the file doesn't exist.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,

Could you share a reproducible example to test? I tested with the following .bat script and it works as expected.

@echo off
Rem Listing and deleting files on c drive
dir "c:\"
del "c:\scripts\file1.txt"
echo "Done!"

When file exists and when the file doesn’t exist.

This is the rundeck job definition:

- defaultTab: nodes
  description: ''
  executionEnabled: true
  id: 12429302-45db-48e6-939b-8e95c558e31f

    filter: 'name: windows'

Thanks for your answer.

I precise that I'm really new with Rundeck.

The very simple .bat file :

:: Rundeck delete file
::
@ECHO OFF
del C:\users\winrmuser\Documents\CreateFile_%1.log
EXIT

And the job definition :

- <joblist>
- <job>
  <defaultTab>nodes</defaultTab>
  <description />
- <dispatch>
  <excludePrecedence>true</excludePrecedence>
  <keepgoing>false</keepgoing>

  <threadcount>1</threadcount>
  </dispatch>
  <executionEnabled>true</executionEnabled>

  </sequence>
  <uuid>9c33bba8-223a-4f55-9a71-16b239eac465</uuid>
  </job>
  </joblist>

I already tried inserting

dir C:\users\winrmuser\Documents\CreateFile_%1.log

before the del command, the problem remains the same

It works now, but i have to modify the batch file :

:: Rundeck delete file
::
@ECHO OFF

dir "C:\users\winrmuser\Documents\CreateFile_%1.log"

IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 (

 del C:\users\winrmuser\Documents\CreateFile_%1.log

 echo successful
) else (
EXIT
)

Thanks for your help.
