Title: Message Title

Jim D created an issue   Jenkins / JENKINS-61405 Stage post conditions doomed by build result becoming unstable Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Andrew Bayer Components: pipeline-model-definition-plugin Created: 2020-03-09 20:02 Environment: Jenkins ver. 2.176.3 Pipeline: Declarative 1.3.9 Priority: Major Reporter: Jim D In a pipeline with multiple sequential stages that typically have either an unstable or a success result, stage post conditions can't be used to take any meaningful action, because one unstable stage dooms the subsequent stages to fire the unsuccessful post condition instead of the success post condition. Pipeline:   pipeline { agent any stages { stage('First') { steps { echo 'Before step with error' catchError(message: 'Step had error.', stageResult: 'UNSTABLE') { sh 'nonexistentcommand' } echo 'After step with error' } post { success { echo 'First stage post success' } unsuccessful { echo 'First stage post unsuccessful' } } } stage('Second') { steps { echo 'Stage after unstable stage' } post { success { echo 'Second stage post success' } unsuccessful { echo 'Second stage post unsuccessful' } } } } } Console Output:   Running in Durability level: MAX_SURVIVABILITY [Pipeline] Start of Pipeline [Pipeline] node Running on Jenkins in ... [Pipeline] { [Pipeline] stage [Pipeline] { (First) [Pipeline] echo Before step with error [Pipeline] catchError [Pipeline] { [Pipeline] sh + nonexistentcommand .../script.sh: line 1: nonexistentcommand: command not found [Pipeline] } ERROR: Step had error.

If there are any workarounds for the current behavior, I'd love to give them a try.
