chef execute resource does not working on Rhel 8 - resources

Question

I am using execute resource in cookbook recipe. the recipe is working normaly while recipe calling on cli. the recipe does not working schedule with cron. i send error log below;
* execute[DNS Recording with Centrify] action run
================================================================================
Error executing action `run` on resource 'execute[DNS Recording with Centrify]'
================================================================================
Errno::ENOENT
-------------
No such file or directory - addns
Resource Declaration:
---------------------
# In /var/chef/cache/cookbooks/rhel8/recipes/centrify.rb
48: execute 'DNS Recording with Centrify' do
49: command 'addns -U -m'
50: user "root"
51: ignore_failure false
52: end
53: end
Compiled Resource:
------------------
# Declared in /var/chef/cache/cookbooks/rhel8/recipes/centrify.rb:48:in `from_file'
execute("DNS Recording with Centrify") do
action [:run]
default_guard_interpreter :execute
command "addns -U -m"
declared_type :execute
cookbook_name "rhel8"
recipe_name "centrify"
domain nil
user "root"
end
i found the reason. the reason appear baceuse of different PATH. cookbook uses different PATH in the cli and in different cron. Mycommand binary in the cli PATH. i can not use static PATH because of cli PATH changes according to OS, verison and distribution.
how can set cli PATH in the cookbook according to all linux?

From the question it appears you want to have the respective PATH environment variable available for the execute resource.
You can try two options:
Set the environment variable PATH while executing command:
execute 'DNS Recording with Centrify' do
command 'addns -U -m'
user 'root'
environment(
{ 'PATH' => ENV['PATH'] }
)
end
Or use default_env property of resource to see if makes the PATH available:
execute 'DNS Recording with Centrify' do
command 'addns -U -m'
user 'root'
default_env true
end
