'

 mvn clean test -Denvironment=qa -Dbrowser=chrome -Dcucumber.options="--tags @RegressionTests1" exec:java

please help. this command works fine with Jenkin

I see the same issue in 5.8.1. However, I can get it to work correctly if you quote the whole of the cucumber.options parameter rather than just the tags section

 e.g. mvn clean test -Denvironment=qa -Dbrowser=chrome "-Dcucumber.options=--tags @RegressionTests1" exec:java

I'm still encountering this problem on Atlassian Bamboo version 5.9.1 build 5914 - 23 Jun 15. Quoting the entire cucumber options does work for me as a workaround.

Amit we might have fixed that issue in Bamboo 5.7. Can you please try installing most recent Bamboo 5.7.2 and see if error is there as well?

I get the same error if I remove the double quotes around

--tags @RegressionTests1 

 but there is no error if double quotes are used.

[Amit Taware]

I used the same but somehow this is not working. I am using 'Continuous integration powered by Atlassian Bamboo version 5.6.2 build 4411 - 03 Sep 14' and Artifactory Maven 3 configuration. Attaching logs for more details.

[Amit Taware]

Himanshu C -Have u installed any cucumber plug in in bamboo?

[Krystian Brazulewicz]

Can you paste the build log? Also which Bamboo version are you using?
