Issue Type: Bug Bug
Assignee: Unassigned
Components: cli
Created: 27/Dec/13 4:18 PM
Description:

If the Jenkins CLI is invoked in a particular way, no Jenkins jobs will be able to run.

The criteria to trigger this issue are:
(1) A job must have a file parameter AND another parameter for the build (I use a string parameter). The file parameter is critical to trigger the bug, and it doesn't occur unless there's also another parameter.
(2) You must start the build via the CLI – the web interface and REST interfaces do not have an issue. (The SSH interface also has an issue, but that appears to just be a wrapper for the CLI, so that would be expected)
(3) You must specific a value for the string parameter, but NOT the file parameter. If you supply a parameter, all will be OK. If don't supply any parameters, it will also be OK.

Given these conditions, instead of running, the job will enter a "(pending)" state. Any other job, regardless of where it is to be executed, will be stuck at "(pending - waiting for executor)". Those states will persist indefinitely. If you then cancel the original "(pending)" job, the problem will be resolved, and the other jobs will get a chance to run.

I view this as a serious bug because a relatively simple task can prevent all Jenkins jobs from running.
