Hey, @Jiayu,

I think this error will go if you work with the WorkingDirectory parameter. Would you please provide the start-process statement pr credentials you have used?

Hello,

I am also getting the same error

 I typed this command flume-ng version to check the version of flume but it shows this error.

C:\apache-flume-1.6.0-bin\bin>flume-ng version
