Hi,

I would like to generate mails if the build has failed. The mail should contain the changes by user. Well, I&nbsp;used the trigger files iterator action from within FinalBuilder. I set the File Name Variable to "P4\_FILE" and so on. As a result I get a mail with the correct changelist number, users, comments - but the file name is always the same as the variable name e.g. "P4\_FILE" or "TEMP\_VAR".

Is ist a bug or am I using it the wrong way?

I am using FinalBuilder 7.0.0.515 ander Server 7.0.0.144.

Regards,

Sam

Hi Sam,   
  
 We’ve just checked in a fix for this and will have a new test build available soon.

Hi,

sounds great - will I&nbsp;have to reinstall FinalBuilder or FinalBuilder Server?

Hi Sam,   
  
 We’ve just released an official update to FinalBuilder which includes the fix, you will need to update FinalBuilder on the build machine.
