Environment

• Server - Azure Pipelines

  • can provide the account name, team project name, build definition name/build number via direct message or email.

• Agent - Hosted:

  • agent queue name: windows-latest(?)

Issue Description

When installing node dependencies in windows-latest hosted agent for a react app, the second command in the script task below (npm run build) is not being executed but the task successfully completes, creating an error for the next task (ArchiveFiles trying to zip a folder that doesn't exist).

trigger:
- develop

pool:
  vmImage: 'windows-latest'

steps:
- task: NodeTool@0
  inputs:
    versionSpec: '10.6'
  displayName: 'Install Node.js'

- script: |
    npm install
    npm run build
  displayName: 'npm install and build'

If the agent is changed to ubuntu-latest the script executes both npm install and npm build.

The issue could be that there is something throwing an error in the node install process, but nothing is logged. Is there any way to get better logs from this task to help troubleshoot?

Hey @Robjam - I'm not able to reproduce - are you still experiencing this issue? Could you provide an example build by chance?
