Re: a few Jenkins questions
>> when folks talk about build numbers, they don't talk in the thousands.. A sampling of some of our more frequent current builds shows that we have few builds that are NOT in the thousands. The highest one is on build number 31751 right now. That's the only one above 10,000, though. Another thing you could check out is the next build number plugin: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Next+Build+Number+Plugin If you have that installed, your users could have clicked a link on the build page and set the build number to anything they want.

Re: a few Jenkins questions
Given that the timing loops in jenkins put a lower bound of 100ms or so before a build starts, unless you have a very large executor pool and enable concurrent execution I suspect that the build numbers will be safe for us from overflow... unless somebody finds a fountain of youth!

Re: a few Jenkins questions
beyond the expected java int issues, I would think that when folks talk about build numbers, they don't talk in the thousands..perhaps its just me ? We are in the development stages at the moment and builds are happening quite often, thus the numbers can get pretty high. I'll have a different build set up when we're ready to Release. anyways, thanks to Matthew and Daniel for the support. - Original Message - From: "Daniel Beck" To: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, May 29, 2014 8:30:32 AM Subject: Re: a few Jenkins questions On 29.05.2014, at 13:37, wak...@comcast.net wrote: > would be a build number reset at some point ?

Re: a few Jenkins questions
thanks for the quick reply. So, the build numbers just keep increasing forever
?? I would think that there
would be a build number reset at some point ?
I will take a look given the info you provided below.

Jenkins never wraps build numbers, so something has gone badly wrong.
The number of the next build for each job is stored in file
${JENKINS_HOME}/jobs//nextBuildNumber , with the actual build results
in ${JENKINS_HOME}/jobs//builds/ . You might want to see if that
directory was reverted somehow. Also take a look at the permissions.
If fact, check that what ${JENKINS_HOME} your Jenkins is actually pointing to.
Most likely something in your environment got messed up, and it is not a
Jenkins issue per se.

Subject: a few Jenkins questions
I have been using Jenkins for a few months now. I've apparently run enough
builds that the build number scheme
used by Jenkins (ex. Project_JUnit #978) has now wrapped around to
Project_Junit #20. These are not the exact
numbers but you get the idea.
Now that I've wrapped around I don't see Last successful build folder being
updated any more. It still has a build
from 8 days ago (when the wrap occurred), and I've had many successful build
since then.
Any idea what could be going on ?? Or how to get around this ??
I am running Jenkins ver 1.550
thanks
