Hi, If you are going to use the workflow plugin, I highly recommend you watch this Youtube video by Cyrille Le Clerc from Cloudbees:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Welwf1wTU-w That video is so good, I think it should be, put in the README.md file for the Workflow plugin. I'm not sure, but I think most of your code is unnecessary, unless you have it there for debugging. I think this should work, but you might want to change the name of the dir variable just to not clash with the dir() function: node ('admins') { def mydir = '7packers-boxes' dir("${mydir}") { sh "pwd" } } The dir() function should create the directory, and in the block, it internally does a chdir() to that directory and then executes the code in that block. Regarding cleaning things up, I filed this bug: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-28382 "workflow plugin: no option to Wipe Out Current Workspace". That bug got marked as a duplicate. There are definitely issues with respect to cleaning up workspaces used by the workflow plugin. -- Craig On Wed, May 27, 2015 at 8:23 AM, Markus "Shorty" Uckelmann <sho...@koeln.de> wrote: > Hi all, > > I just started to play a bit with the workflow-plugin and got stuck with > dir step.
