Jenkins / JENKINS-43234 Invalid symlink causing repeated error in log Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Components: core Created: 2017/Mar/30 2:56 PM Environment: Jenkins 2.46.1 Slave: Red Hat Enterprise 7.3 Priority: Minor Reporter: John Anderson We are seeing a repeated error coming through our job outputs. It doesn't seem to be breaking anything as jobs are completing successfully. The error we see in the job output is: Cannot contact Build (dockbld06): java.io.IOException: Remote call on Build (dockbld06) failed "Build" is the node label and the actual box is named dockbld06. Looking into the logs of Jenkins I find an error like this popping up every 2 - 3 seconds while jobs are running. I filtered on "Jenkins.util.VirtualFile". This seems to be the underlying error for what we are seeing in the job log itself since they are both very frequent in the logs. could not determine symlink status of

Jenkins / JENKINS-43234 Invalid symlink causing repeated error in log

Change By: John Anderson

We are seeing a repeated error coming through our job outputs. It doesn't seem to be breaking anything as jobs are completing successfully. The error we see in the job output is:

*Cannot contact Build (dockbld06): java.io.IOException: Remote call on Build (dockbld06) failed*

"Build" is the node label and the actual box is named dockbld06. Looking into the logs of Jenkins I find an error like this popping up every 2 - 3 seconds while jobs are running. I filtered on "Jenkins.util.VirtualFile". This seems to be the underlying error for what we are seeing in the job log itself since they are both very frequent in the logs.

* could not determine symlink status of /var/jenkins_workspace/jobs/bluestem-common/initializr/master/builds/16/archive

at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745) *

Please let me know what other information I can provide. We have a handful of plugins installed which I can list if I need to.

Re: Invalid symlink causing repeated error in log I'm running into this same issue, exactly as John described it, except with 10 seconds between errors while jobs are running rather than 2-3 seconds. I'm happy to provide any info that makes it easier to fix this.

Re: Invalid symlink causing repeated error in log

I see no evidence that this has anything do with symlinks. Either the named archive directory exists and can be read by the Jenkins master process, or something is wrong.
