I'm trying to use https://pypi.org/project/pytest-rabbitmq/ in a unit test. It sets up a fixture that starts/stops a rabbitmq server for use in a test. I got this working outside of pants with

pytest

so I know my installation is good. It requires a

rabbitmq-server

and

erlang

installation on the system which are both available under my

PATH

. Pants seems to be picking things up fine because the server is attempted to start, but fails the boot process. I think sandboxing is the most obvious thing at play here. Any ideas for environment variable differences or similar to look at? When I preserve sandboxes, the generated

__run.sh

executes without error.

My guess would be

HOME

or

USER

or there abouts.

I'd be surprised that it found

rabbitmq-server

but not

epmd

.

I mean to find the running instance of epmd.. 😁
