Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

This is almost certainly not a Bitbucket problem.  Your build process is failing, so you need to debug that.  Ignore Bitbucket for now, try running the build manually to find out where it is failing. 

Try giving it the same parameters you have given it in Bitbucket, they may be the problem.

Hi Mike,

I just wanted to add to Nic's reply and provide more info on how to troubleshoot the build locally:

If this build runs on Atlassian's infrastructure or with a Linux Docker self-hosted runner, these builds run in Docker containers based on the image you specify in your bitbucket-pipelines.yml file. You can follow this guide to troubleshoot such a build locally with Docker:

• https://confluence.atlassian.com/bbkb/troubleshoot-failed-bitbucket-pipelines-locally-with-docker-1318882094.html

If you use a Linux Shell or MacOS runner, these runners use Bash to run pipeline steps directly on the host machine. You can clone the repo and run the bitbucket-pipelines.yml file commands directly on the host machine in Bash.

If you use a Windows runner, it uses PowerShell to run pipeline steps on the Windows machine. You can clone the repo and run the bitbucket-pipelines.yml file commands on PowerShell on the host machine.

Kind regards,
Theodora
