thanks, that seems to make sense with what i am noticing. Seems like the root cause is that, the variable is not assigned if the 'shell' step fails / non 0 exit status. i am trying to assign the variable with the shell scripts stdout. I would like to capture the stacktract so that it prints the shell scripts stdout/stderr in the mail, rather than the generic "'hudson.AbortException: script returned exit code 1'"
