Environment

• Server - Azure Pipelines or TFS on-premises?

  • If using TFS on-premises, provide the version: Azure Devops Server 2018 Update 3

• Agent - Hosted or Private:

  • If using private agent, provide the OS of the machine running the agent and the agent version: Agent Version: 2.122.1 Agent OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

Issue Description

The batch script task always succeeds even when errors are logged during execution such as copy commands not finding source files. The argument "Fail on standard error" doesn't seem to make any difference. From what i can see in the task's json it's not even used for the execution?
