Group membership is only set at the beginning of a session or by using
an explicit command like newgrp. If you edited /etc/group while Jenkins
was running, then told Jenkins to restart itself, it would not have
picked up the changes. An initscript invoked by the service command does
start the service in a new session.

Re: console run as jenkins i can mkdir, but when i run mkdir in build task, i get permission denied

[KimSia Sim]

Thank you for your advice Jonathan!

I have solved the problem by restarting the Jenkins service.

I had to run the following command in my console.

sudo service jenkins restart

This restart works better than the web gui restart sequence.

For reasons unknown to me.

As you can see from your above output, the Jenkins process is running as
a member of the "nogroup" group, not "www-data". This probably means
that user "jenkins" is not listed as member of "www-data" in /etc/group.
Alternatively, the script which starts Jenkins or Jenkins itself could
be explicitly changing the group membership. You need to determine why
Jenkins is not running with the group membership you expect. Keep in
mind that group membership is determined at process start time so you
have to restart Jenkins after changing /etc/group to see any effects.

BTW, in a shell script the "&" character means to run the preceeding
command in the background, which probably not what you intended as the
reason that the output order is odd. Use ';' to separate two commands
but execute them sequentially.

Re: console run as jenkins i can mkdir, but when i run mkdir in build task, i get permission denied

[KimSia Sim]

I had a relevation when I logged in to my Console as jenkins and I run 
groups


I saw

nogroup sudo www-data

but in the window shell command of the build step, I only had

nogroup

I suspect this is the reason.

How do I overcome this problem? I have already tried restarting my jenkins.

It is still running as nogroup

[KimSia Sim]

I have this command

mkdir /var/virtual/folder

I can execute this when I ssh into my server as `jenkins`

/var/virtual belongs to www-data, but not an issue because I made 
/var/virtual 775 and `jenkins` is a member of `www-data` group


However, when I run the exact same command in my web interface Jenkins 
system as a build task, I get a permission denied.

I am running  Jenkins ver. 1.504  Please advise.
