RTC continuous integration builds sometimes persist after failure
I have RTC integrated with Build Forge and I am running continuous integration builds between the two. However intermittently I see a failed build in RTC, but the matching build in Build Forge is purged, meaning the build should not have run. I see the following error in the log related to this build when I turn on the log4j debug for the Build Forge integration:

What is happening here? How can I fix it?
Accepted answer
This is a known defect being tracked under work item 222056. The problem is with how the included environments in the Build Forge environment are handled. To work around this problem, move the included environments in Build Forge at the top level (the level assigned to the project) to the top of the environment. This will cause them to be executed first in the integration and will bypass the problem.
