Re: problem with jenkins not able to access git

[Phil Swenson]

Actually I don't think it has anything to do with git... i tried 
downgrading my git plugin and got this error:


   - Failed to resolve host name updates.jenkins-ci.org. Perhaps you need 
   to configure HTTP proxy?

All the jobs do this (all pipeline jobs)

I had this problem yesterday as well and restored from a snapshot and got

again.



Any ideas?

notifications on pipeline builds

[Phil Swenson]

I've been researching ways to do build complete/fail notifications for 
pipeline jobs


I'm surprised to only find solutions like this:  

https://jenkins.io/blog/2016/07/18/pipline-notifications/
https://bitbucket.org/snippets/fahl-design/koxKe

basically copy/paste code into all the jenkinsfiles across all the source 
repositories... 

is there a plugin I'm missing that manages this stuff across many jobs 
given that this code is pure boiler-plate?

thanks for any thoughts,
phil

Jenkins 2 Pipeline script triggering itself. How to not poll for changes by git user Jenkins?

[Phil Swenson]

Hi, we have a Jenkins Pipeline job that changes a pom.xml file and checks 
in the change.  This of course causes the job to kick itself off again.

Is there a way to configure the job to ignore the jenkins user?

I tried this:

   git url: 'g...@bitbucket.org:myrepo.git', excludedUsers: 'jenkins', 
branch: branch, credentialsId: 'mycredstuff', variable: 'CREDENTIALS'

This didn't seem to work.

I see there is an issue opened against jenkins here:

https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-36195


Is there a way to work around this issue?

Thanks
phil

Detect the git repo for multi-branch pipeline

[Phil Swenson]

Hi, I have a multi branch pipeline configuration job working fine so far

However every single repository has exactly the same jenkinsfile except for 
the git repo name.

a typical jenkinsfile looks like:

node('docker-slave') {
withCredentials([[$class: 'UsernamePasswordMultiBinding', credentialsId: 
'NEXUS', usernameVariable: 'NEXUS_USERNAME', passwordVariable: 
'NEXUS_PASSWORD']]) {
git url: 'g...@bitbucket.org:myco/myprob.git', branch: env.branch_name, 
credentialsId: '08df8ab41de0', variable: 'CREDENTIALS'
stage 'Test'
sh 'env > env.txt'
sh 'cat env.txt'
sh 'make verify'
}
}


What I'd like to do is detect which git repo triggered the build so I don't 
have to hardcode it in the jenkinsfile.  



So what I'd like is to change the git line to something like:


 git url: *env.GIT_URL*, branch: env.branch_name, credentialsId: 
'08df8ab41de0', variable: 'CREDENTIALS'



This gets me closer to my eventual goal of storing my Jenkinsfile in a common 
location instead of having to copy it repo to repo and modify it repo to repo.


Any ideas?


Thanks

phil

Jenkins Pipeline: how to access credentials variable??

[Phil Swenson]

I am using the Jenkins Pipeline Plugin, but having trouble getting my 
docker config credential to do what I need.


using code like:

node('docker-slave') { 

withCredentials([[$class: 'UsernamePasswordMultiBinding', 
credentialsId: 'NEXUS', usernameVariable: 'NEXUS_USERNAME', 
passwordVariable: 'NEXUS_PASSWORD'],
 [$class: 'FileBinding', credentialsId: 'DOCKER_REGISTRY', variable: 
'DOCKER_CONFIG_PATH']]) {
def dockerConfigPath = "$DOCKER_CONFIG_PATH"




the dockerConfigPath above does not get populated as I'd hope...



The variable DOCKER_CONFIG_PATH passes in the absolute path to the docker 
config file. I only need the directory path, NOT the file path. 

So if the DOCKER_CONFIG_PATH is something like 
/jenkins/tmp/393939kdk/config.json , I need to set the DOCKER_CONFIG 
environment variable to  /jenkins/tmp/393939kdk/

Given all the security stuff that's built in to the groovy script, I 
haven't been able to do this.

My question boils down to this:  how do I get access to the variable 
DOCKER_CONFIG_PATH that is pulled from the credentials.  I need to drop the 
filename at the end off the string.



Thanks
phil

best approach to automate/manage jenkins jobs?

[phil swenson]

Hi, we have a large number of jenkins jobs and would like to automate and
version control their configuration.

>From what I can tell, most people just manually config their jobs via the
UI.  Unless there are only a few very simple jobs, this leads to an
unmanageable mess.

I think the jobs should be coded in a DRY fashion, version controlled, and
deployed via a scripted system.

Here are the approaches I am aware of:

1) scripting via command line (jenkins cli)
2) scripting via the rest web services
3) chef cookbook http://community.opscode.com/cookbooks/jenkins

What are most people doing?
Any recommendations?

thanks

better views for tests (plugin?)

[phil swenson]

We have our test suite sharded across 15 jenkins nodes because they take so
long to execute.  We have really struggled with getting a nice aggregate
view into all the test results.  Right now we have to drill into each job
and view the test results by job (no aggregation).

Does anyone have a suggestion on a plugin or an approach to give a nice
aggregation test result view?

thanks for any thoughts.

Join Plugin triggering job twice (using Git)

[phil swenson]

I'm using the Join Plugin with Git.  My join job config looks like:

git SVN polling job with config that looks like this:  http://cl.ly/PZfA

This mostly works, however, my Post Join build which waits for some
test jobs to finish gets called twice.  In the first call, the git
revision gets passed correctly.  In the second call, it is not passed
correctly (the revision would be the "latest" even if the calling jobs
were on a different revision)

Does anyone know why the Post Join build job would get called twice?

Perhaps the join plugin doesn't play well with the Trigger
Parameterized build on other projects?

Thanks for any thoughts

GIT: triggering "promotion" job on multiple git test jobs succeeding

[phil swenson]

I want to set up a git "promotion" that runs on a "dev" branch and
promotes it from dev to master after a set of test jobs succeed.

So I would have 10 test jobs all run on the same git revision and when
ALL of them pass, I want the Promote job to promote the revision to
Master and push to origin.

I see that if I have a job trigger another job, the git revision
automatically gets passed on to the other job.  This is great

What I don't understand is
1) how to have all the git test jobs launch simultaneously on the same
revision (maybe set up another job that polls and launches the 10 test
jobs?)
2) how to make the promotion job execute on successful complete of ALL
upstream test jobs and make sure it is running on the same revision as
those test jobs

Thanks for any thoughts!

Re: force a a job run on every node

[phil swenson]

well, it's not running on every node.  I kick off a job and it only
goes to one node.

so still stuck….

force a a job run on every node

[phil swenson]

I'm using gradle and periodically I need to run a specific task on
every node to clean out the cache.

Is there a way I can force a job to run on all nodes?

create a report based on stdout

[phil swenson]

I have a jenkins job (gradle dependency report) that outputs a report to
standard out.

I'd like to look for a pattern in standard out like "---dependency
report---" and save everything from that point on to a file.  Then I'd like
jenkins to save this text file as an artifact so we can capture history.

Any thoughts?  Guessing there is a plugin that does this, but couldn't find
it.

thanks

Jenkins Windows Slave Service startup is flakey

[phil swenson]

We have troubles with Jenkins Slaves stopping working and having to
manually restart the windows service on every node (15 nodes).

Last week, windows update ran and all the servers got restarted.  The
Jenkins Slave service only started on 5 of the 15.  I had to ssh into each
and start the service.

Today all nodes are marked offline.

The services were not running, I suspect every machine was bounced by
windows update.


It appears that the jenkins service startup is flakey.   Even when I run it
manually I get stuff like this:

Administrator@DAEAP86187 ~
$ net start "Jenkins Slave"
The service is not responding to the control function.

More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2186.


Administrator@DAEAP86187 ~
$ net start "Jenkins Slave"
The Jenkins Slave service is starting.
The Jenkins Slave service was started successfully.


Ideas?  Suggestions?

kill all jobs/empty the queue?

[phil swenson]

When you have a bunch of jobs that are queued up and destined to fail
(won't compile for example)…. there should be a way to kill all the jobs
and empty the queue.

Is there a plugin for this?

restart broken build when certain string is detected?

[phil swenson]

I have a large Jenkins setup in Germany running against SVN in the US.
 Unfortunately, I get quite a few broken builds from SVN flaking out
(network drops I assume).  We've never had this problem with
everything being in the same datacenter.

I don't have a good solution to preventing the problem, so what I'd
like to do is rerun the job when a certain text string is detected
(org.tmatesoft.svn.core.SVNException: svn: E175002: REPORT
/svn/sag/!svn/vcc/default failed).

ideas?

thanks

We have our Jenkins server running in virginia but all the nodes run

Does anyone have a remedy for this so I don't have to go thru this

Re: troubles with svn externals - auth error

[phil swenson]

I figured it out.  The external was on a different server.  Apparently
the svn client that jenkins uses isn't smart enough to apply the
credentials to a different server.  The native client/tortoise do
handle this case.
So I had to enter a second svn url for the external and then enter the
credentials.  Then the credentials get stored the the jenkins server.
I can then delete the second svn url from the job.

Re: troubles with svn externals - auth error

[phil swenson]

I guess I didn't explain very well.  I am setting up a job on a new
Jenkins server that points to a particular SVN Url.  This SVN repo has
several externals.  The job runs on one specific node that is in
Germany, but the Jenkins Server and the SVN repo are both in the US
(not sure if that could matter, but they are in different windows
domains).

When the job executes, it checks out code from SVN and is successful
the code in the main repo, but fails to sync the externals "(Caused
by: org.tmatesoft.svn.core.SVNCancelException: svn: E200015: No
>> credential to try. Authentication failed)"

We have a similar setup (all US) that works fine.

Does that explain the situation any better?

thanks

The credentials used for the main repo should work everywhere (they do

configuring gradle plugin with jenkins

[phil swenson]

We've had a lot of trouble getting Jenkins to recognize the correct
JVM when using the gradle plugin.
What is the correct approach for getting it to always use the JDK 1.6?

The JDK drop down seems to have no effect (what populates the drop
down anyway?).  Setting JAVA_HOME on the box itself isn't working.

thanks for any thoughts
