RE: Why jenkins restart every day?
I have also seen our Jenkins get stuck in "Jenkins is going to shut down" mode, and it appears to be caused by the thin-backup plugin trying to begin a backup while a long-running job is running. The best solution seems to be to schedule nightly backups to run before starting any long-running jobs in the evening or overnight hours.

Hello Thanks for your quick answsers! Here are mine : - Latest Jenkins, using Linux standalone service (init.d). I'm under latest ubuntu 12.10 - I have the exclusive execution plugin installed but I don't use it. I'm disabling it right now - which backup plugin are you talking about? I'm using "Backup plugin", but since it doesn't seem to do the job, I'm also disabling it.

Re: Why jenkins restart every day?
Are you running your job with this plugin: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Exclusive+Execution+Plugin? It will prevent other jobs from running, and the way it does that is to put it into "shutdown" mode so no other jobs run at the same time.

RE: Why jenkins restart every day?
I don't know the answer, but didn't want you to think we're ignoring you. I don't think that the group has enough to bite on to answer this...yet. My setup has Jenkins running for weeks at a time, so this is definitely not normal. Some useful information might be: 1: Which version of Jenkins are you running? 2: Which OS are you running on? 3: Which web container are you running it in (Tomcat, Glassfish, Jetty, etc.)? If you're just running "java -jar jenkins.war" or somesuch, you're using the internal Winstone container 4: How does your system launch Jenkins? Is it a Unix init.d service, or a Windows service, or do you just launch it at the command line? 5: Are you using a plugin to back up your Jenkins configuration? I had one at one point and it wanted to shut down my Jenkins daily so that it didn't back up a moving target. --Rob From: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Gaetan Sent: Tuesday, October 30, 2012 6:04 AM To: Jenkins Users Subject: Why jenkins restart every day? Hello My Jenkins installation want to restart everyday and and i don't find why.
