            Yes apologies, it does actually run!

            Bamboo's API calls '.exe' and '.bat' files executables, so you may be confused by this message.

            From the logs in the support ticket it looks like your batch file gets executed fine even if this message is displayed. Could your build be failing for other reasons?

            Actually James, this does cause our builds to break, as I stated in the original ticket: https://support.atlassian.com/browse/BSP-8011

            The script task is set to run a batch file called Move_files.bat. This batch file is no longer recognised as a batch file in Bamboo 4.2 so the task fails with the error: "Unable to find executable at Move_files.bat" The script task should be looking for a script file to run not an executable.

            Regards,
            Sinead

            This should not effect your builds from working correctly. It looks like the check here is incorrect which causes us to display an incorrect logging message.

            I've downgraded this to a 'Trival' priority and scheduled this to be fixed in a 4.2.x release.

            Thanks
            James

            Glad to see I wasn't going nuts after upgrading.
