As you can see, Jenkins is invoking "/bin/sh -xe". You should check whether /bin/sh is Bash or something else. If it is Bash, consult the manual to see exactly what those options mean and what happens at startup: <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bashref.html#The-Set-Builtin> <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bashref.html#Bash-Startup-Files> If it is Bash, no startup files are read because it is executed as the name "sh" non-interactively. This is a good thing because it makes it easier to control the environment separately from interactive logins. I use a script just for setting build-related environment variables which I source within the scripts in Jenkins jobs rather than ~/.bash_profile. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
