I am creating CI & CD pipeline for nodejs application using azure devops.
I deployed build code to azure linux vm using azure release pipeline, here I configured deployment group job.
In deployment groups I used extract files task to unzip the build files.
Unzip will works fine and my code also deployed in this path: $(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)/LearnCab-Manage(V1.5)-CI (1)/coreservices/ *.zip
After that i would like to run the pm2 command using azure release pipeline, for this task i take bash in deployment group jobs and write the command 

cd $(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)/LearnCab-Manage(V1.5)-CI (1)/coreservices/*.zip
cd coreservices
pm2 start server.js

But bash not executed it will give exit code 2.

This error caused by your argument are using parentheses ( in the command at your first line. As usual, the parentheses is used as group. This could not be compiled as a normal character in command line.

To solve it, you need transfer the parentheses as a normal character with \:

cd $(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)/LearnCab-Manage\(V1.5\)-CI \(1\)/coreservices/*.zip

And now, \(V1.5\) and \(1\) could be translated into (V1.5) and (1) normally.

And also, you can use single or double quote to around the path:

cd "$(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)/LearnCab-Manage(V1.5)-CI (1)/coreservices/*.zip"

Or

cd '$(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)/LearnCab-Manage(V1.5)-CI (1)/coreservices/*.zip'
