Mercurial Executable capability `/usr/bin/hg' does not seem to be a hg client.

Hello. I have a problem!

(com.atlassian.bamboo.repository.RepositoryException : java.lang.RuntimeException: com.atlassian.bamboo.repository.RepositoryException: Mercurial Executable capability `/usr/bin/hg' does not seem to be a hg client. Is it properly set?)

How fix it?

I found my HG location by typing hg -v which resulted /

/home/<username>/bin/hg

Hello Igor,

Just tested Bamboo 5.3 with Mercurial 3.1.2 and it works as expected. Also checked output of "hg version" command for Mercurial 2.8.2, pattern is the same. So maybe issue is at permission level.

Can you please provide error message from log. It should have "Output: " prefix with ERROR log level. It contains output of "hg version" command. It will help us to understand what's wrong with "hg version" command.

Hello Igor,

Match string for HG capability is 

"^Mercurial Distributed SCM \\(version (.*)\\)"

Can you please provide result text of "hg version" command

This regexp is not good idea: users with localized hg will suffer. Of course they can delete /usr/share/locale/../hg.mo, as i did but this don't seems right
