[SOLVED] cannot use curl in AWS CodeBuild project: exit status 127 command not found

Issue

It happens in post_build phase.

• Tried to install first, but was already installed.
• Tried to export PATH to include /usr/bin (where curl is installed)

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 260328 Oct  3 17:15 /usr/bin/curl

[Container] 2023/11/28 16:44:10.517469 Running command echo $PATH

Phase context status code: COMMAND_EXECUTION_ERROR Message: Error while executing command:(...) Reason: exit status 127

Solution

The problem was the way I was executing the command:

echo "$DATA" | gzip -c | curl -X POST -H "$AK" -H "$CT" "$URL" --data-binary @- 

(works in shell - bash)

the fix was:

    - temp=$(mktemp)
    - $(echo "$DATA" | gzip -c > "$temp")
    - 'curl -X POST -H "Api-Key: $LK" -H "Content-Encoding: gzip" "$URL" --data-binary "@$temp"'
    - rm -rf "$temp"
