====== Nomad troubleshooting ======

===== executable file not found in $PATH =====

This error happens when running a job that requires envoy:
  envoy_bootstrap: error creating bootstrap configuration for Connect proxy sidecar: exec: "consul": executable file not found in $PATH

Nomad is trying to execute a consul command and can't find it in its usual location (///usr/local/bin//). This happens when nomad is installed for example in ///opt//. To fix it udate the ''PATH'' variable in the systemd service to include the path to consul e.g.:

  ...
  ExecStart=/opt/nomad agent -config={{ nomad_conf_dir }}/nomad.hcl
  Environment="PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/opt/nomad:/opt/consul"
  ...
