          Description Original: When clicking the "Validate Address" button, if an error occurs the user will only be told "Address looks good but we are unable to connect to it". Please include some helpful error message New: Checking the "Do not fail if remote fails" button will cause cancellation requests to be ignored.

          I see this issue occassionally when a remote node is down.

          Attempts to cancel the job are ignored.

          The workaround I use is to find out the executor thread and kill it by name (from the Jenkins script console)

          Thread.getAllStackTraces().keySet().each() {
  t -> println("Name: " + t.getName());
}

          and kill the thread with

          Thread.getAllStackTraces().keySet().each() {
  t -> println("Name: " + t.getName());
  if (t.getName() == " Executor #<insert details>" ){
    println("stopping");
    t.stop();
  }
}
