Chromium source download errors when running as Scheduled Task Powershell script

Question

I'm trying to script the download and build steps for the Chromium Source and related v8 code using the steps from Chromium Docs.

Powershell Run Command:

.\dl-chromium-src.ps1 -c stable -d E:\chromium-downloads -r E:\scripts

CMD Run Command:

powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File E:\scripts\dl-chromium-src.ps1 -c stable -d E:\chromium-downloads -r E:\scripts

When the script is run I keep getting an error during fetch call (Line 91). I think this has to do with the make steps, but I'm not sure.

Error message:

IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'toolchain\\win_x86\\x86_64-nacl\\include\\c++\\4.4.3\\ext\\pb_ds\\detail\\binomial_heap_\\constructors_destructor_fn_imps.hpp'

I don't get this error when running fetch --no-history chromium from a powershell window manually. I only get the error when the script is run from command line (e.g. through Scheduled Tasks).

I'm assuming it had to do with the profile so I tried running the script without -NoProfile but that didn't help. I've also checked the environment variables from a Powershell command line and from within a Powershell script and they're the same. I've included the code and a more detailed stack trace below.

Why are you using -Command when you're running a file? PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -NoProfile -NoExit -File "PATH_TO_SCRIPT\dl-chromium.ps1" -c beta -d "DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY" -s "ARCHIVE_DIRECTORY" -sz "C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" -r "CURRENT_RUNN... — Compo

@Compo I want to use Tee-Object to show the output and write to a log file that has a generated date in the filename and I was having trouble doing that with the -File parameter. — Ebsan

@Compo using the -File arg gives the same error. I've simplified the question and example code so it's easier to replicate. — Ebsan

The issue had to do with Windows long path name limitations. I updated the path length maximums for the OS and git, but these stack trace from above was from the python scripts. I couldn't figure out how to fix it for python so I ended up shortening my path names and then the script worked.
