nohup: failed to run command `sh`: No such file or directory

I have the following pipeline script in Jenkins:

node {

  withMaven(globalMavenSettingsFilePath: '/my/path/apache-maven-3.2.2/conf/settings.xml', jdk: 'JDK 1.8.0u92', maven: 'apache-maven-3.2.2', mavenSettingsFilePath: '/my/path/apache-maven-3.2.2/conf/settings.xml') {

    sh '/my/path/apache-maven-3.2.2/bin/mvn clean install'
  }
}

For this, I am getting:

nohup: failed to run command `sh`: No such file or directory
ERROR: script returned exit code -2

Why is this?

I am sure that the path to my Maven installation is correct. When I run a job without the pipeline, Maven builds with no errors and I can see that it uses the same path.

This error comes when you are trying to run script copied from windows machine to unix machine. YOU need to change the format to unix using : dos2unix <scriptname.sh> and the run your script in unix ./<scriptname.sh>

This might be the result of modifying PATH.

Check your script and Global Properties and remove modifications to PATH. It is now recommended to use PATH+extra instead. It would still be picked up, but without breaking actual PATH.

In the end, I used shell instead of sh and it worked. No idea why, they don't have a proper API.

I would suggest to use it like this:

  withMaven(
            maven: 'M3',
            mavenSettingsConfig: 'maven-settings-for-the-task',
            mavenLocalRepo: '.repository') {

        // Run the maven build
        sh "mvn clean install"
    }

Apart from that I would not use absolute paths to global settings.xml nor to user settings.xml. I would prefer using usage of "Config File Provider Plugin" which has the advantage to have the settings.xml on Master and available on all nodes.
