Hi there, I am trying to add Capability to Jenkins to Build .NET 7 Project and getting failed. Right after the $ dotnet build command is being executed receives the below error. I am using .NET: Build project (build) to build the project in the Linux environment. $ dotnet build .NET Command Completed - Exit Code: -1 FATAL: Command execution failed. java.io.IOException: error=2, No such file or directory at java.base/java.lang.ProcessImpl.forkAndExec(Native Method) at java.base/java.lang.ProcessImpl.(ProcessImpl.java:340) at java.base/java.lang.ProcessImpl.start(ProcessImpl.java:271) at java.base/java.lang.ProcessBuilder.start(ProcessBuilder.java:1107) I can confirm that the directory exists in the right path and the project name doesn’t contains any whitespaces. Any ideas? Thanks, in advance. ---

It looks like to me that it can’t find the dotnet executable. Is dotnet installed for the user that Jenkins is running as?
