"A" and "AU" Annotations in Jenkins Console Next to Files Being Checked Out 
from SVN.

What do these annotations mean?

Thank you.

Install Jenkins as WAR file or Install using package installers?

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

Why would I choose to install Jenkins as a WAR file instead of using a 
package installer?

Increasingly slow build and test run times over time

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

 note that if I reboot all the automation machines (Unix master, Windows 
slave, Windows agent on which automation tests run  compiles and text 
executions are very fast. I have six to twelve Jenkins jobs running every 
night. 

However, over a period of a few days, performance will bog down and slow up 
to the point that the longest running job (optimally at 8 hours) will take 
up to 20 hours or so!

So, I reboot again and things speed up for a while and then bog down.

Last Friday, I noted the hang ups again and this time I noticed on the 
Jenkins dashboard that it is during compiles there is a hideous slowdown. I 
don't know this is always true and I will look at prior builds today to see 
if there is a pattern.

Before running the tests, there are jobs that compile the code and clean 
out "gunk" from output directories. 

Any general guidance as to debugging this? I lack the experience and 
knowledge still to be able to organize and target my debugging efforts as 
well as I should. 

I don't think I should have to depend on random reboots to maximize Jenkins 
performance.

Oh, here's the other big problem and this may a very large part of the 
problem. I 'm working in a changing environment where I have been limited 
in what I can do to update software as I should because of upper level 
decisions. I should be running the latest stable build of Jenkins and all 
software but I am not. That should be my first effort in solving the 
performance issue, right? I am just going to try to update all software 
myself at this point. 


Thanks for listening.

Where is build.properties?

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

Inherited project with little documentation and less experience with 
actually managing ant builds.

My understanding is that build.xml can get its property values from a file 
called build.propoerties.

My problem is: I cannot find "build.properities" anywhere in the project 
code nor on the build machines.

In this case, there are developer machines and then the machine on which 
the code compiles.

So I find a build.xml for the project and on the machine that builds, the 
ant batch file which will use the build.xml...

Help?

Thanks.

Re: Failed ANT build: Unable to locate tools.jar

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

Thank you Mark. Ya' I've been looking all over the place...there is one 
file referenced that looks promising, but for the life of me, I cannot find 
it either!

build.properties

Here's where I saw it in the build.xml:







but from the comments in the above...maybe it does not exist...

Re: Failed ANT build: Unable to locate tools.jar

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

Thank you Mark. Yes, I checked for that the Environment Variables but 
unfortunately: nothing! I've tried adding a JAVA_HOME variable pointing to 
the place where the tools.jar is and the build failed.
I'd really like to understand how the build files "think" they should be 
looking for this before I do anymore "experimenting"...

Failed ANT build: Unable to locate tools.jar

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

I have an ANT build that has been working just fine for quite a while and 
suddenly it has stopped working and I am trying to figure out why. Here is 
what the Jenkins console displays and my notes about it. I've obscure the 
actual site name, directory values, and Jenkins job name, etc. "uvwx" is 
the Jenkins job that is failing to build

In Jenkins console:

No changes for svn://ab/cd/ef/gh/ijk since the previous build

Copied 3 artifacts from "lmnop" build number 137

Copied 2 artifacts from "qrst" build number 2700

[uvwx] $ cmd.exe /C 
"C:\Users\jenkins\jenkins_home\tools\hudson.tasks.Ant_AntInstallation\Ant_1.9.6\bin\ant.bat
 
get-revision compile-tests compile-javadoc package-jar package-javadoc && 
exit %%ERRORLEVEL%%"
Unable to locate tools.jar. Expected to find it in C:\Program 
Files\Java\jre1.8.0_201\lib\tools.jar


My notes about this: 

What I want to know is: WHY does the build "expect" to find it in 
"c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_201"? There IS no such path on the machine 
on which the job is building...

How can I find out WHERE that value is coming from? I've been looking at 
the ant, build files and source code and don't see where that value would 
be set.

Thank you.

Re: Jenkins does not restart on restarting Windows machine

Thank you - I did check of course and it says "automatic"! I'll have to

now that I think of it...my machine has trouble starting because of a weak
battery and I wonder if this is what is causing the trouble...

Jenkins does not restart on restarting Windows machine

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

I have Jenkins installed as a Windows service and the service set to 
restart automatically; I thought that this means that when Windows 
restarts, the service would restart. But what I am seeing is that the 
service does not restart on Windows restart and I must go into Services and 
start it. 

What did I miss?

Plugin for NEW failures between builds

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

I'm looking for a plugin that would create a report of only NEW failures  
between builds. In other words, if there were three builds (three being the 
last build), the report should tell me about only about new failures 
between builds 2 and 3, not things that failed between builds 1 and 2. 

?

Thank you.

Re: Jenkins slave goes offline: caused by difference ins java verssion...java minor version?

Ok - I wasn't sure; I wonder why the "Launch " button in the Jenkins UI

Tough situation for me: complicated inherited environment with need to 
update both Jenkins and plugins. Tried it once and thought I was successful 
but ended up having to revert because of errors.

Jenkins slave goes offline: caused by difference ins java verssion...java minor version?

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

Problem: Jenkins slave going offline and can't get it back online via 
"Launch" in Jenkins.

Is a difference in the minor version of Java enough to cause this? I read 
that a difference in the Java version could cause this but I don't know if 
a difference in the minor version counts.

Iava versions on my machines:

Java version on the “Jenkins master” (on unix virtual machine) is: 
 1.8.0_111 

 

Java version on the “Jenkins slave” (on a windows 7 professional machine) 
is: 1.8.0.112

Thank you! It sounds like a great idea but you lost me on "bumping a docker

That's ok - I'll be adventurous and update them though the command line 
after I update Jenkins itself.

I don't think I can get in too much trouble...

:)

Re: How to Update Jenkins Plugins

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

Yes the plugins are on the unix machine.

I will try to do this manually  from the command line. The Manage Plugins 
UI does tell me what the dependencies are for each plugin so if I take note 
and pay attention - I will probably get something done. I just wish I had a 
better grasp of tools and techniques that would let me do this faster, more 
efficiently, etc.

Thanks again!

Re: How to Update Jenkins Plugins

Yes really! That's what I was asking: if I *could* update the plugins from

that they are installed on a unix machine NOT my machine.
Thanks again.

What part is wrong? Can you elaborate on how to update the plugins then?

Re: How to Update Jenkins Plugins

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

Adding to the first post: I see in the configuration for the plugins in 
Jenkins the name of the unix machine and the directory for the plugins - 
but that doesn't mean that if I try to update them from the plugin manager 
that I will be able to connect to the unix machine and update the plugins 
there does it?  Thanks again.

How to Update Jenkins Plugins

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

I'm new to Jenkins maintenance.

My Jenkins is installed on a unix machine.

I've figured out how to update Jenkins to 2.89 (the LTS - that's what I 
want) on unix (sudo command line).

But what I don't know: how to update all the interdependent plugins (there 
are many) that are listed by Jenkins on the plugin manager. Since I can't 
update Jenkins from the UI, I can't update the plugins from there either - 
right? 

Is my only option updating each plugin from a sudo command line in unix?

Is there an expedited way that someone who is not well-versed or 
experienced in this environment (unix and all related) yet can do this?

THANK YOU.

I see I can add a freestyle project and add a windows batch file command...

Re: Is there a Jenkins Plug In for this Or Can I Create My Own Or ...

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

I should clarify that when the tests run in Jenkins there is a script that 
restores the databases when the tests are done using their specific 
database; however I want something in Jenkins users can use to trigger a 
batch restore process AND  a batch backup and archive process...

Hi all - wondering if there is or if I could create a Jenkins plugin that 
could do database admin tasks such as restore, backup and archive 
databases? Right now this is a semi-automated process that depends on the 
user having a Eclipse workspace with the test source code. Also the current 
script in the source code only allows alteration of one database at a time; 
I want to be able to run this process from Jenkins and also do restores, 
backups and archives on multiple databases...
Thanks!

Re: Stopping pipeline builds easily and question on architecture

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

Thank you! I did look at the version and while I cannot remember exactly 
what it is, I seem to recall it's due for an update. Think I'll keep 
pipeline because there is talk about making all our processes as integrated 
as possible.
Your answer is so well written and easy to understand - thank you again.

Stopping pipeline builds easily and question on architecture

[ABostonGal ABostonGal]

1. Two types of architecture exist on a Jenkins build server I inherited: 
pipeline builds (building from groovy files) and jobs building from just a 
build xml file. I find the pipeline builds very difficult to abort: I have 
to take multiple steps starting from clicking on a red x in the Executor 
panel for the job through to clicking on two links in the console. The jobs 
that run from a build xml are easy: click once on the red x in the Executor 
panel, and I'm done.

Is there a easier way to stop the pipeline builds?

2. Can I change the pipeline builds back to the architecture that just uses 
the build xml files?
