Sean Reilly updated JENKINS-13110:
----------------------------------
Description:
I first noticed this with the MongoDB plugin (v 1.1), but then realised that
this occurs with all automatic tool installers that I can find.
When choosing an automatic tool installer of type "Extract \*.zip/\*.tar.gz",
or "Run Command", the UI provides a "label" field, which can be used to
configure which kinds of nodes use a specific installer. When I have slaves on
many platforms, this allows me to install (for example) the
mongodb-linux-x86_64 build on a linux slave, and a mongo osx build on an osx
slave.
The "Install from mongodb.org" option doesn't include a label field, even
though I can configure multiple installers for different platforms. The first
installer is always used no matter what.
Update: while writing this bug report, I realised that this behaviour seems to
be present for all "Install from XXXX" options, across many plugins.
This behaviour is fine for a platform independent tool like ant, but doesn't
work well for native code (such as mongodb).
*Workaround*
Create "Extract \*.zip/\*.tar.gz" installers with appropriate labels and
download locations such as
"http://downloads.mongodb.org/linux/mongodb-linux-x86_64-2.0.3.tgz"; to
accomplish the same thing. Note that this won't work for more complicated
automated tool installers like the one that installs java from java.sun.com.
