Re: Jenkins master and slave workspace directory

[Adam PAPAI]

Why don't you use the $WORKSPACE variable? It always points to the directory where your source code is - or in other words where your job is located. Aswini Rajasekaran April 26, 2013 10:27 AM Hi Adam, I am running tests on both master and slaves and am specifying the test location directory in user-extensions.js file in selenium. As the workspaces are different in master and slave, I can't run the same job in both master and slave depending on the load on master. If I can't make this to run on any node, then I have to end up tying it to one node which completely nullifies the parallel execution concept.

Anyway on the master you shouldn't run tests. Only on the slaves. The reason is: on the master under the <jenkinsroot>jobs/jobname there are the meta infos, build history, config.xml and so on, so the "realy" workspace is under the <jobname>/workspace On the slaves, Jenkins does not store meta info, build history, configs, so that's why its located under: <jenkinsroot>/jobs/workspace/<jobname> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.

In my jenkins master node, the workspace directory is defined as <jenkinsroot>/jobs/<jobname>/workspace - this is configured as ${ITEM_ROOTDIR}/workspace in jenkins master. whereas in slave, the workspace directory gets stored like this  <jenkinsroot>/jobs/workspace/<jobname> I want both the workspace directory, in master and slave to be consistent. Is there anything that I can do to make this happen? Thanks in advance. Regards, Aswini -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
