See here, there’s an error log which is fatal

<https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/logging/|https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/logging/>

It just adds an error. It does not stop the current update.

yep, that’s my misunderstanding, looks like the docs aren’t accurate. I’m following up internally.

Re: your issue, do you have a repro?

Hmm.. I could make one. But any inline stack that calls exit(1) seems to be in problems.

I also tried with pulumi.errors.RunError() but it doesn't about the execution like exit, but first applies the new world view, which is exactly the opposite of what I want :slightly_smiling_face:

some smart Python people just told me to tell you to try

```raise Exception("I want my program to end")```

Thanks. I got it to work.

I had to do a little more to look nice - otherwise I would get log exception traces in the log, which I didn't want.

So:
• I used a try-catch around the inline command to convert SystemExit to a new exception with a specific text

• and I caught CommandError from stack.up and stack.preview to filter for the specific text
