How to make a deployment fail when MSBuild is failed

[Dayakar Devi]

I have a deployment plan which contains about 5 steps, 3rd of which is a MSBuild task. I am trying to make my deployment plan return as a failure when MSBuild is failed but as I see now, even though MSBuild is failed, my deployment plan returns a success without actually deploying anything as the build is failed.

Hi @Dayakar Devi,

I have some questions to help me to understand your problem:

• Is this behavior consistent across all MSBuild tasks you have of is this happening just for a specific one?
• What is the build result telling about this? Is it showing any error message?
• Could you search for a message like:

  simple <DATE_TIME> Starting task '<NAME>' of type 'com.atlassian.bamboo.plugin.dotnet:msbuild'

  and then share with us what outputs you see regarding the failure if you see any?
• Is the MSBuild returning any error if you run it from the terminal?
