The first step is to determine whether the problem is that the files are not being archived in the upstream job, or whether they are archived but then not subsequently retrieved by the CopyArtifact plugin in the downstream job. Look on the Jenkins master itself, in Jenkins_home/jobs/<upstream-job-name>/builds/<build-number>/archive/.
We use archive and CopyArtifact a lot, and I have never seen anything like this. Have you checked that your path specifications are all correct?
