[JIRA] (JENKINS-60785) corrupt workspaces.txt file on agent, changes multibranch builds to use workspace directory with slash converted to %2F, causing errors
Title: Message Title Jeff Richards commented on JENKINS-60785 Re: corrupt workspaces.txt file on agent, changes multibranch builds to use workspace directory with slash converted to %2F, causing errors Yeah, from my perspective, I would have been totally satisfied if the node was just marked offline. The file is corrupt. There is a problem. The problem is rare (any defense against partial writing of a file in code is admirable, but going to be partial (what happens in case of power outages). So marking the node offline would avoid an unexpected workspace name, alert that the node needs attention and the confusion that that causes. Call in the humans and let them deal with it. Once I realized that my issue was related to a problem on a single node, it only took a few minutes to think to look at the log, which pointed me straight to the problem. And while I didn't know quite what to do to fix it, I think that would be handled by an FAQ/Troubleshooting entry on the web for people to find. Or better yet reference it in the log message that is displayed.

Title: Message Title Jesse Glick commented on JENKINS-60785 Re: corrupt workspaces.txt file on agent, changes multibranch builds to use workspace directory with slash converted to %2F, causing errors an uncerimonious shut down It certainly looks like it, though the code is supposed to defend against that. Not sure what happened. Do you still have the system log that you found the warning in? At any rate, this code could try harder. Currently it falls back to the previous implementation (a reversible translation from job name to folder name), which was correct behavior so far as it goes but leads to trouble if you are using buggy build tools which cannot handle certain characters in the working directory path. Alternately it could discard the corrupted index and start fresh, though this introduces other risks: stale workspaces being permanently forgotten (consuming disk space); possible collision between similarly-named jobs trying to use the same (nonreversibly simplified) folder name.

Title: Message Title Jeff Richards created an issue Jenkins / JENKINS-60785 corrupt workspaces.txt file on agent, changes multibranch builds to use workspace directory with slash converted to %2F, causing errors Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Brian Elliott Attachments: workspaces.txt_corrupt Components: branch-api-plugin, nodepool-agents-plugin Created: 2020-01-15 21:57 Environment: linux, multi-branch pipeline build with agents doing the building. Jenkins version 2.190.3 Branch API Plugin Version 2.5.5 Labels: robustness Priority: Major Reporter: Jeff Richards I'm facing the same problem with my multibranch pipeline project: "feature/branch" from a git repository is transformed to "feature%2Fbranch" which causes build to fail because the build process cannot find the files. Agents aredoing the building. In my case interestingly this was only happening on 1 of three nodes (it took me hours to figure THAT out). After much searching what I found was that when I reviewed the node log for the failing node (Manage Jenkins -> Manage Nodes -> click on node in question -> Log, I found that the /home/jenkins/workspace/workspace.txt file was noted as being corrupt. For whatever reason this meant that when the build was attempted on that node, the build directory was not the usual workspace directory (which has all branch name slashes (encoded as %2F) cases repla
