Latexmk exit code 12 in Azure Devops

1k Views Asked by At

I'm trying to run a test script in an azure devops pipeline. I have a test that runs on my own environment but fails in the pipeline.

when I run the following code:

command = '['latexmk', '-pdf', '--interaction=nonstopmode', '/tmp/my_tex.tex']'
output = subprocess.check_output(command,
                                                 stderr=subprocess.STDOUT,
                                                 **check_output_kwargs)

Locally it finishes without errors. When I run it in the DevOps pipeline I get:

subprocess.CalledProcessError: 
Command '['latexmk', '-pdf', '--interaction=nonstopmode', '/tmp/tmp78wpkv3l/Unknown.tex']' 
returned non-zero exit status 12.

Which isn't very descriptive. Does anybody know how to solve this or get more descriptive error messages?

The problem was that latexmk was being run in the wrong folder, fixed with a simple os.chdir(<correct folder>)
