Problem with VM_HOOK template and xpath.rb

Community Support

Hi!

I’m creating a VM_HOOK on DONE to clean up the old computer objects out of AD/DNS/Security groups, etc. I’m passing to the bash script the $TEMPLATE argument. In my hook script, I get the valid template (took the base64 and decoded it successfully, then validated the xml successfully), however I’m getting the following errors…any ideas?

Thanks!

If I run xpath.rb directly and pass it the base64 encoded XML, I get:

/var/lib/one/remotes/datastore/xpath.rb --base64 template UNAME
