Pact No such file or directory publish_dir

[kheraankit]

I am getting this error when trying to run provider verification tests. It wants to create a directory under root /publish/ for which it doesn't have permissions. Is there any configuration property that I can use to configure the path, and learn more about what it is trying to do?

Failure/Error: file = File.new("#{@publish_dir}/#{filename}", 'w+')
   
   Errno::ENOENT:
     No such file or directory @ rb_sysopen - /publish/0.2795377757053914
