[JIRA] [core] (JENKINS-26195) Failed to update permalink: unable to delete

Mon, 22 Dec 2014 06:51:23 -0800

Issue Type: Bug Bug
Assignee: Unassigned
Components: core
Created: 22/Dec/14 2:50 PM
Description:

Sometimes users report seeing exceptions such as

... jenkins.model.PeepholePermalink updateCache
WARNING: Failed to update ... lastSuccessfulBuild permalink for ...
java.io.IOException: Unable to delete /jenkins/jobs/.../builds/lastSuccessfulBuild
	at hudson.util.AtomicFileWriter.commit(AtomicFileWriter.java:112)
	at jenkins.model.PeepholePermalink.writeSymlink(PeepholePermalink.java:200)
	at jenkins.model.PeepholePermalink.updateCache(PeepholePermalink.java:150)
	at jenkins.model.PeepholePermalink.resolve(PeepholePermalink.java:122)
	at hudson.model.Job.getLastSuccessfulBuild(Job.java:857)


In one case this was discovered to be due to lastSuccessfulBuild being an actual directory rather than a symlink, due to an incorrect restoration from backup. But AtomicFileWriter should use Util.deleteFile or similar to make sure that Java 7 methods are first used to perform the deletion, which provide better diagnostics.
