Are you building everything on the jenkins host?Why not do builds
on slaves (even on the same host if necessary), and tell jenkins to
archive the build artifacts you want?   Then you can mount the NAS
storage wherever jenkins puts the artifacts without affecting builds -
or requiring the normally disposable workspaces to be on the NAS.

  I am trying to read the content of a file in the remote workspace

SVN auth cache?

[Jeff]

When I first set up Jenkins I configured many of the initial jobs to pull
from SVN using my personal user credentials.  Once I got it working, I got
our IT guys to create me a service account that is used to do the builds
and changed all of my jobs to use the service account.

This worked great until this morning when I had to change my password.
There is something on the Jenkins server that has cached my personal
credentials which it seems to be attempting to use before it tries the
Service Account.

By doing this, it keeps locking my account.  I am running on Windows server
2008 R2 x64 with Tomcat 7.  I have removed TortoiseSVN and SlikSVN, removed
all cache folders I could find from my /AppData/ folders,
removed all subversion.credentials files from each job folder and reran all
jobs, verified that the subversion credentials file has the Service
Account, but it is STILL attempting to authenticate using my old
password and I'm missing something.

I fired up WireShark and verified that it is connecting and getting a
HTTP/401 error for most of my jobs.

Can someone point me to other places to look for SVN credentials?

Re: Jenkins Server Time

[Tom Denley]

Thanks for your efforts sti, but I need a solution that purely uses the 
REST API, as I have no access to the Jenkins instances in question.  I'm a 
little surprised that there is no way to get this information, as the 
timestamps are fairly meaningless without some way to qualify them against 
the Jenkins server time.  I would have thought that the REST API call for 
the root resource should contain this.

Re: Guidelines/best practices building embedded linux

[Rich Pixley]

I'm not just thinking of using the source code control system to do the 
cleaning here.


I'm coming to jenkins after developing my own automated builder based on 
btrfs snapshots.  With btrfs snapshots, it's possible to both keep an 
old build, (all artifacts intact), lying around while /also/ creating a 
fresh incremental build on top of it.  The two builds then share files 
in the file system so much as they are common and the file system takes 
care of which ones stay around.


With this approach, you can also automate recovery from failures. When 
an incremental fails, you simply start the next incremental from the 
last successful snapshot.  This also allows for "pre-commit" checking in 
the sense that changes can be built, (as an incremental on the previous 
build), and if successful, the changes can be committed and the work 
space becomes the next successful snapshot.  If it fails, the next build 
starts from the previously successful snapshot.


This doesn't have the static disk allocation of jenkins, (one job, 
maximum one workspace), but you can use the entire disk as a big ring 
buffer - remove the oldest builds until there's enough space for the 
next build, then build.


This is orders of magnitude faster than using the source code control 
system to do the cleaning.  It's also significantly faster in all work 
flows and doesn't require any source code control system hooks at all.  
It's completely source code control system agnostic.


If you put btrfs on root, it also protects your build host by 
effectively running the build in a disk jail.  Builds can muck about 
with the state of the build host and each build will still be completely 
independent with a zero time setup cost.

Re: failure setting up slave...

I do.

The protocol should have a more robust initial negotiation in order to

Re: Problems with JVM Parameters in Freestyle Jobs with Maven Builder

[Sami Tikka]

That's not entirely accurate, I think. 

I have a job that builds Jenkins. The job is a maven job and I have set 
"-XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Djava.awt.headless=true" into MAVEN_OPTS  under the 
Advanced button (in Build section). The build will fail without the permgen 
pool resize and also pop up some extra icons into the dock without the headless 
option. I'm definitely of the opinion Jenkins will launch a new JVM where it 
executes maven.

Well, it depends. If you can clean up the workspace by only deleting files that 
are not controlled by version control system, you can save a lot of time in 
checkout of large repositories. But then you need help from the version control 
system => Jenkins implements workspace cleaning in the SCM plugins. 

If you prefer to simply nuke the whole workspace before the build starts, you 
can do that too, but unfortunately you need 
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Workspace+Cleanup+Plugin for it.

If you have a large repository, you probably do not want to start every build 
with a checkout from scratch.

If you use Subversion, click on the "Subversion" radiobutton under "Source code 
management" (in a job configuration.) Then click on the Advanced button. (There 
are many Advanced buttons on the page. Click on the Advanced button in the 
Source Code Management section.) for "Checkout Strategy", choose "Emulate clean 
checkout by first deleting unversioned/ignored files, then 'svn update'".

If you use Git, click on "Git" radiobutton under "Source code management". Then 
click on the 2nd Advanced button of the Source Code Management section (yes, 
Jenkins could use a helping hand from a professional UX designer...) Check the 
box "Clean after checkout".

If you use something else, maybe someone else can tell you how to do it.

Aaah! That's the way you do it. Yes, I have seen that time out on large 
workspaces. I use it so seldom I haven't bothered even making a bug report 
about it.

I hope the SCM plugin for your version control system has support for 
intelligent workspace cleaning.

Is there a way to automatically put working directories elsewhere?

[David Weintraub]

I am planning on setting up a new Jenkins server at our company. I
want to keep all deployable artifacts in Jenkins for a wide variety of
reason (easy access, access control, etc.).

The company would prefer if these deployable artifacts were kept on a
NAS for backup reasons.

I am sure that wouldn't be an issue with Jenkins. The only issue is
one of speed. Jenkins would be doing the checkout remotely, and then
compiling the remote source files. That could slow things down quite a
bit. Most builds are pretty fast, with in a few minutes, so it's not a
terrible concern. If a job is really problematic, I could configure it
to use a local working directory. However, I can see this really
increasing the maintenance. For example, imagine a job I configure on
the NAS and use a particular directory for local storage. The
developers branch the project and now want a Jenkins job for that
branch. I copy the old Jenkins job, change the checkout URL and a few
other things, but forget the local working directory. Now, I have two
jobs using the same local working directory.

It would be nice if Jenkins could be configured, so that the working
directory is automatically put elsewhere. That way, when I create a
job, Jenkins would simply put the working directory in local storage
for me. For example, I configure a job /mnt/nas/jenkins/jobs/foo. All
directories would be on the NAS, but the working directory would be on
/opt/local/jenkins/foo or /opt/local/jenkins/jobs/foo. (I really don't
care as long as local working directories are unique). Is there any
way to set Jenkins up to do this? Is there a plugin that can do this?

I'm trying to set up my first slave and I'm running into a problem I 
don't understand or know how to debug.


Both machines are ubuntu-12.04, standard ubuntu jenkins install, 
configured for " Project-based Matrix Authorization Strategy".


It looks to me as though my script has successfully contacted the 
slave, downloaded slave.jar, and launched it, but for reasons that 
aren't clear, the jenkins protocol is getting screwed up.


Can anyone tell me what this might mean?

You just have to understand that jenkins doesn't really do much in the way of 
work space management so hosed builds mean you'll have to clear the workspace 
and start all over from scratch.

Jenkins does have the option of clearing the workspace at the beginning of the 
build. It is usually there in the SCM (= version control) settings and is 
usually off.
I haven't found that yet.  Core jenkins apparently doesn't have that 
ability, although it would seem to be core functionality.


And from my perspective, manual clearing is extremely minimal support.

It would appear that jenkins is primarily based around a bunch of much, much, 
much smaller builds than something like oe so there are likely to be some 
scaling issues.  Eg, I'm finding that stuff like clearing the workspace take 
long enough that jenkins thinks they've failed.

Interesting. Could you elaborate? I wasn't aware of any time limits in Jenkins 
builds. I have a Jenkins which runs 24 hour performance tests and Jenkins has 
never failed it because it runs too long.
I'm not sure what else to say.  I click "clear workspace', it runs for a 
while, I can see the disk space being cleared, and then it fails with a 
time out.


A typical oe build directory can run 30gig per device and you may well 
build for 5 devices.  That's a lot of disk space which takes time to 
deallocate.

Re: Notifying when a job hasn't run for a set period

[Jacob Robertson]

This isn't quite what you're asking for, and I don't actually know how the
RSS feeds work, but you can create a View that only shows you exactly what
you want to see, and then maybe subscribe to that view's RSS feed?  If you
use View Job Filters you can create a view with exactly the jobs and
conditions you want.  We have a view for all jobs that haven't run in a
certain amount of time, and that helps us to know which jobs have fallen
off the wagon and need some attention.

RE: jenkins nodes keep losing connectivity - how to avoid manual restart of node service?

[Mandeville, Rob]

Just off the top of my head, so I could be horribly wrong:

If your Virginia server is launching the German nodes, I could easily see this 
happening.  If you launched your nodes from the German sites and simply told 
them where to find the Virginia server, I wonder if it would respond to a 
disconnect by trying to reconnect.

Then again, you mention that you are restarting the Windows service, which 
implies that you're already doing this.  If that is the case (that your German 
Windows boxes are launching slaves as a service independently and 
auto-connecting to Virginia), there might be a way in Windows to make a service 
auto-restart.  That way, when you lose connectivity, Windows itself will try to 
restart the slave node.

Jenkins Server Time

[Tom Denley]

Is there any way to determine the current time on a Jenkins instance 
through its REST API?

I make use of the Jenkins REST API, and frequently come across resources 
containing a timestamp field, from which I would like to calculate a 
duration -- by subtracting from the current time.  Unfortunately, I am 
having trouble getting a value for the current timestamp of the Jenkins 
server, and using local time leaves me open timezone problems.

Any help/advice gratefully received.

Any ideas why?

Re: psexec from a windows script works but doesn't return

[SA Evans]

Try putting a -i in the psexec call.  i.e.

psexec -i \\ 

Evidently it needs some sort of interactive privileges to run.  When 
looking on my target server I'm not seeing any specific windows pop up when 
I run it so I don't know if it actually needs to have a logged in console 
session on the target machine or not, but I was banging my head against a 
wall for several hours until I came across this solution that worked for 
someone else.

Re: 1 job wait for 2 others completed job before start

[grayaii]

You can take a look at the "Join Plugin".  That may help you.

Also, in the job you want to run, you can examine the status (and all sort
of information!) of the other 2 jobs via:
http://[YOUR_URL]/jenkins/view/All/job/[YOUR_JOB]/api/xml

And parse whatever information you want.

But I would take a look at the "Join Plugin".  It may help you out.
Good luck!

Permalink to last Maven release builds usable in downstream build?

[Radim Kubacki]

Hi,

I wanted to create a pipeline with a
1. Maven build that builds project including few of its subprojects
and configured settings for Maven release build
2. manually executed downstream build to take deployed artifact(s)
from latest Maven release build and push it to our testing enviroment
(install RPM or deploy web application).

I can do (2.) as a promotion but I do not like it. (I'd like to run
some integration tests when the build is is deployed. Also there can
be more staging levels so deployment pipeline looks like a better
solution than a set of promotions.)

I am almost there with the help of Maven Deployment Linker plugin
(http://wiki.hudson-ci.org/display/HUDSON/Maven+Deployment+Linker) but
I can only choose to select last {|stable|successfull|failed} build as
a source of my artifacts in this downstream build. Why isn't release
build here when Maven plugin creates a permalink for lastRelease job?
Configuring it to lastStable build is not an option: there can be some
manual test between build and deployment build and even without the
release build initiates new non-release build called from an SCM
trigger when version update is pushed as a result of maven release.

So is there a way how to access last release build data from some
downstream build? If there is not how difficult it would be to add it?

-Radim

Re: Users in 1.475

[Andi Scharfstein]

Right, works like a charm. Sorry for the stupid question, I thought I 
remembered not having to do anything like that from a previous 
installation... should have gone through the docs again instead. Thanks a 
lot!

Re: Users in 1.475

This is normal for a fresh installation. 
To enable the requirement to login you need to enable security.
Goto /configure
then tick the checkbox for "Enable security"
then select the "Security Realm" and "Authorization" that you require. see 
the wiki for details on these.

hi ALL ,
I add the following script in the email-ext groovy for
reading the failed_case.html into the mail body. It works if I run job on
the master node[linux].
<% def failed_case = new File(build.getWorkspace().getRemote()+
'\\failed_case.html')
  println failed_case.text%>
if failed ,if the job is running on the slave [windows version ] . I always
got "Exception: javax.script.ScriptException:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: d:\jenkins\workspace\x\failed_case.html
(No such file or directory) "


Do you know how to access the log in the slave node ?

Can I skip archiving if the build fails

[Matthew.Webber]

I have an "Archive the Artifacts" post-build action, and it looks like it will 
archive artifacts even if the build fails. In my particular case, I don't want 
that - is there a way to turn off archiving in such a case?

(Note: I have -Dhudson.tasks.ArtifactArchiver.warnOnEmpty=true).

Thanks
Matthew

Re: Working with Mercurial sub-repo

[shanethehat]

To further clarify my query: @jenkinsci suggested using the Multi-SCM 
plugin.  

This works well in so much as it gets out the parent repo and then grabs 
the latest sub repo and writes it to the library folder.  What I 
additionally need is that if the library sub repo has been updated, the 
parent .hgsubstate file needs to be updated, committed and pushed into the 
upstream repo.  Is there plugin out there to handle this kind of behaviour?

Users in 1.475

[Andi Scharfstein]

Hello all,
I am setting up a fresh Jenkins install on a new server and have 
encountered a usage problem. After deploying the WAR and starting Jenkins, 
there are no links to login or register a new user. I have tried entering 
the registration URL directly and got a "java.lang.NullPointerException at 
jenkins.model.Jenkins.doSignup(Jenkins.java:3329)". Is this a known bug or 
is it just me? This is a completely fresh installation just out of the box 
using the current release version 1.475, I don't know if I even had a 
chance to break anything. Tomcat logs are clean without showing any 
suspicious behaviour. Thanks in advance for any replies!
