I currently have a build setup and it fails due to failing post process steps. This is a fault with our middleware and it will take sometime to actually get them to fix the problem is there a way to ignore post build processes?

Ronan,   
  
The simplest way would be to turn on ignore failure for that action. The (more involved way) would be to parse the output via script and look for certain errors and ignore them.
