Hi.

We are using Finalbuilder Server to have a nightly build of all our libraries and applications and set all build actions to "Ignore Failure". Only the required steps are not set to "Ignore Failure".&nbsp; In Finalbuilder server there is no notification type available to inform us that only one or more actions failed. I'd like to check the error count and raise an exception at the end of the project to create a "build failed" notification message. Is there a way to to that?

Kind regards

Kay Zumbusch

Hi Kay,

At the end of the build you can check the "%FBIGNOREDERRORS%" system variable, and raise an exception if its value is greater then 0.
