Jenkins ver. 1.536
Jenkins promoted builds plugin 2.14
Configured a Manual Promotion and whenever I add a Parameter I get a stack trace dump. When I remove the additional parameter the promotion goes through and calls a downstream job. I am trying to add a parameter at the promotion step to send down to downstream job. The Predefined Parameters work but I need to pass additional parameters that promoter will choose from (deploy environment, etc...). I tried Boolean, Choice, Text, String but all cause this stack trace.
