/bin/sh not found -- spawnSync

Question

after executing a command with execSync which executes with sh I noticed the following:

spawnSync /bin/sh ENOENT

bin is currently added to PATH.

any thoughts?

Answer 1

Normally the cause is that the path where you are executing this doesn't exist

Answer 2

This error can also be caused by passing a directory that does not exist to the cwd. Double check that the path you are passing as the cwd option is correct.
