Parameterized TRigger plugin not finding properties files when using Parameter factories

Hi,

Job A uses "For every property file, invoke one build" parameter factory to call downstream job B.

Here is the file pattern I am using:

d:\scripts\batch\salesconfig*.txt

There are two files in that folder:

salesconfig124.txt

salesconfig126.txt

Job B fails because job A is not setting the parameters it depends on, or something similar. If I look at the parameters for a build of Job B, they are empty.

I have the option "Action to perform when no files found" set to "Fail the build step" in Job A, but Job A does not fail, only Job B.

I have also tried:

Escaping backslashes in path (e.g. d:\\scripts\\batch\\salesconfig*.txt)

Using different wildcards (e.g. salesconfig*.txt, salesconfig1??.txt)

Using absolute filename (e.g.d:\\scripts\\batch\\salesconfig126.txt)

The process works when I use "Parameters from  properties file" parameter type instead of a parameter factory, and specify the full path to one of the files, so I know the files are in the right format. I do not want to add a parameter for each file I have,

 since I will eventually have 15 or more files.I would prefer to use the parameter factory if possible.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

pimy

Should I open a bug?
