ACTIONS_RUNNER_HOOK_JOB_COMPLETED not working

Describe the bug I’m attempting to use the ACTIONS_RUNNER_HOOK_JOB_COMPLETED and am running into this error:

A job completed hook has been configured by the self-hosted runner administrator
[2](https://github.com/my-org/my-repo/runs/123456789?check_suite_focus=true#step:16:2)
Error: File doesn't exist

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create job completed script outside of the actions-runner directory, e.g. ~/runner-job-completed.sh per this documentation.
2. chmod 755 ~/runner-job-completed.sh
3. Set environment variable ACTIONS_RUNNER_HOOK_JOB_COMPLETED to /Users/my-user/runner-job-completed.sh in service plist
4. Restart runner service
5. Run workflow
6. See File doesn't exist error

Expected behavior File should be found and run as expected

Had the same issue - fixed by:

1. Moving the file to the different directory (according to documentation: “The custom scripts must be located on the runner, but should not be stored in the actions-runner application directory.” )
2. Set full path to the script in the .env file, like ACTIONS_RUNNER_HOOK_JOB_COMPLETED=/opt/cleanup.sh, $PATH didn’t work here, and script will not be found even if it is there.
3. If you using systemd for runner, restart systemd automation.service every time you change the .env file.
