I can't get anything to work with bat in pipeline jenkinsfile

[wowberk]

Hi all, 

I have uploaded this file.jenkinsfile in a repository

pipeline {
    agent any
    options {
        timeout(4)
    }


    stages {
        stage('SmokeTest Login') {
            steps {
                sleep 15
                echo 'SmokeTest Login Init..'
                bat returnStdout: true, script: 'echo %PATH%'
                echo 'SmokeTest Login Finished..'
            }
        }

}

but i can't get jenkins to return anything on screen or continue or showing any kind of error.

[Pipeline] {
[Pipeline] stage
[Pipeline] { (SmokeTest Login)
[Pipeline] sleep
Sleeping for 15 sec
[Pipeline] echo
SmokeTest Login Init..
[Pipeline] bat
Cancelling nested steps due to timeout
Sending interrupt signal to process
After 20s process did not stop
[Pipeline] }

If you want to see the bat file output, remove the returnStdOut. You only need that if you want to assign the output to variable and use it later in the pipeline.

if you still want it in the logging as well as a variable:

output = bat returnStdout: true, script: 'echo %PATH%'

in the code snippet it should have had a second line:

echo output

Sorry, but with:

output = bat returnStdout: true, script: 'echo %PATH%'

echo output

return 

org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:
WorkflowScript: 15: Expected a step @ line 15, column 17.
                   output = bat returnStdout: true, script: 'echo %PATH%'

Solved by changing job type.
