azure-pipelines-tasks: One or more of the steps defined in the build does not have an associated task definition

For certain build definitions I receive from time to time the following error message:

One or more of the steps defined in the build does not have an associated task definition

Any idea what might be the cause of this? Unfortunately no log is written. Queuing a new build works most of the time. Mostly the error occurs for builds scheduled during the night.

@embix I am able to re-create this as well. This is only a problem when using ssh. Can we get this issue re-opened or added to a new issue?

Just had this bug reproducible with onprem TFS 2015u3 for a batched ci build definition. I pushed 4 times, it failed 4 times - in fact I never had a successful ci build for that build definition.

When pushing (using ssh if that is of of any help) the ci build is triggered but fails with the “(X) One or more of the steps defined in the build does not have an associated task definition.” issue. But when I go to any failed build in my browser and push “Queue new build” the same commit will be build as it is supposed to.
