We have an event to create a tag in Subversion towards the end of the build process.&nbsp; We’re getting a failure to build the tag because the folder in SVN to place the tag was missing.&nbsp; That is easily fixed.&nbsp; However, the build process did not stop the build and flag an error as it should have done.&nbsp;   
  
We have the options in the event set as follows:  
[&nbsp;] Allow Tagging of Existing Tag Changeset  
[X] Wait For Result  
[X] Fail Build On Error  
[X] Log Build Messages  
  
In the log of the build it shows the event failure as:  
  
Executing event handlers for ‘On Before Stage Start’ build event   
Executing handler ‘Tag Changes’ for build event 'On Before Stage Start’  
An error occurred while adding the tag ‘SiteWatch/SW23.0.X/23.0.0.312’ to the changeset with revision ‘20881’ in repository ‘Development’. Message: Running C:\Program Files\SlikSvn\bin\svn.exe with arguments “XXX” failed with return code 1 and error output: “svn: E160013: File not found: transaction ‘20891-jl9’, path ‘/Tags/SiteWatch/SW23.0.X/23.0.0.312’”   
Finished executing event handlers for ‘On Before Stage Start’ build event   
  
The build continues to operate from that point forward without error and the entire build process is flagged as a “Success”.&nbsp;&nbsp; I would have expected that the failure to insert the Tag into the Subversion repository would have stopped the build with a failure given the options on the Event.

Sorry. This is a Continua issue and not a FinalBuilder issue.   
  
 Moderator, please move this topic to the Continua Bug Reports.   
  
 Thank you.

Hi,  
  
Sorry for the delay, I only &nbsp;saw this post today. We have now implemented a fix, for the next version of Continua CI.
