I am using a private build agent together with Azure Team Services. I have a Build task that works and publishes a build artifact. Within a Release task I have a command prompt that makes a ping to a server.
Tool: ping
Arguments: MyServerXXX
But when I run the Release the task fails with the error:
2017-06-01T12:51:48.4030953Z ##[command]ping MyServerXXX
2017-06-01T12:51:48.6090956Z Ping request could not find host MyServerXXX. Please check the name and try again.
The Build Agent and MyServerXXX are a part of the same domain, I am able to log onto the build server and ping MyServerXXX. The Build Agent is running under a domain account that has access to MyServerXXX. I have also tried a fully qualified name.
The same command works when added to the Build definition. How can I make this work in the Release pipeline?
