Hi, I am thinking that a workaround to get the "Publish HTML Report" post build action to always execute would be to force the build flow job to always succeed (ignoring all job failures), and use the Groovy Postbuild Plugin (https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Groovy+Postbuild+Plugin) to flag the build as a failure if need be (i.e. pass an argument to the Groovy postbuild action that indicates whether the job failed; and if so, throw an exception in the Groovy code which makes it look like the entire build failed).
This seems like a bit of a hack, but I think it would work. Is this a bad solution? Reasonable solution? Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Hi, My Build Flow Plugin based job has a "Publish HTML Report" post-build action. Regardless of whether the build flow job succeeds or fails, it generates an HTML report that should be published. Currently, when the build flow job fails, the HTML file is not published because the job stops on the failure. Is there are way to get a post-build action to always execute (even when there is a failure)? This seems like a very common requirement but I did not see it documented anywhere. I saw that there is a plugin to run a script regardless as to whether the job succeeded or failed, but I need the "Publish HTML Report" post-build action to always run.
