Current behavior
Hi all
We've got a Phoenix project where in the mix assets.deploy phase we copy a couple of files in the windows build using basically this line:
"cmd robocopy a b /MIR"
This is working fine when being executed manually (i.e. we've got a build.bat script), i.e. logged into the machine, running a cmd session, running the bat file. However if we execute this via Jenkins, where the same computer that we've used manually is running as a Jenkins slave, this will fail with an error:
** (ArgumentError) argument error

After trying around a bit I stumbled upon this, which has the same error when compiling argon2_elixir (which was happening with us as well, but an update of elixir_make solved the issue):
Trying out that fix suggested by @josevalim by modifying the line mix.exs solved this problem:
"cmd cscp 65001 & robocopy a b /MIR"
So I assume that in mix there is a very similar line somewhere?
Sadly it's hard to reproduce, since you need to setup a Jenkins master server, and a Jenkins slave as well to trigger this, so I hope this information is enough to find the issue...
Happy to help if you need more info!
Expected behavior
The line should be executed without an error
