    Description

      We're trying to set up a Remote Agent, and for some of our builds we need to change the paths of executables used. Capabilities seem like a nice way to do this, but variable substitution seems horribly broken.

      The following log details the problem in a test build where we are attempting to use the Ruby executable in a script builder, using capability variables to define where Ruby is:

      12-Jun-2008 15:03:03 Executing build BAMBOO-TEST-3
      12-Jun-2008 15:03:03 Running pre-build action: Build Number Stamper
      12-Jun-2008 15:03:03 Running pre-build action: VCS Version Collector
      12-Jun-2008 15:03:03 Building started with ScriptBuilder
      12-Jun-2008 15:03:03 Starting to build 'Build System Testing - Ruby Capability Testing'
      ... running command line: ${bamboo.capability.Ruby} puts test
      ... in : E:\bamboo-home\xml-data\build-dir\BAMBOO-TEST\integration\.\BambooTools
      ... using java: null
      ... using environment variables:
      12-Jun-2008 15:03:03 Substituting variable: ${bamboo.capability.Ruby} with c:\ruby\bin\ruby.exe
      12-Jun-2008 15:03:03 Failed to execute build: Cannot find executable at ${bamboo.capability.Ruby}

      Notice that the variable substitution "works" per this line:
      12-Jun-2008 15:03:03 Substituting variable: ${bamboo.capability.Ruby} with c:\ruby\bin\ruby.exe

      Immediately after we see the following:
      12-Jun-2008 15:03:03 Failed to execute build: Cannot find executable at ${bamboo.capability.Ruby}

      If I replace the "${bamboo.capability.Ruby" with "c:\ruby\bin\ruby.exe" it works just fine.

      We cannot use a build agent effectively, if we cannot resolve problems like this.
