I am running the Tokenizer task in my Azure DevOps Release Pipeline. The task shows as completing successfully but when I open the log it shows a parsing error due to an Exception and no tokenization ever occurs. Why doesn't this Fail the task, as I would want it to? I would think that this should cause the Tokenizer task to fail, particularly because I have the "Continue on Error" setting turned off. Below is the log of the task. Any help/info would be appreciated.
