Re: Pipeline fails with NPE due to Blue Ocean favorites

Any update on this please?

Digging more, it looks like this was fixed via https://github.com/jenkinsci/blueocean-autofavorite-plugin/pull/16, merged on April 5 ; but no release was cut for it. Last release was 1.2.2 on Feb 27.

I've seen the same problem with Jenkins 2.138.1, Blue Ocean 1.8.4, and autofavoriting plugin 1.2.2 .

I built the tip of the plugin development branch and confirmed that the tip of the branch does not fail the builds.

I recommend the tip of the branch be released so that this bug is fixed.

I get this with every single PR I open. And it only started in the last month... so I'm not exactly sure if it's related to this thread which was opened months ago. But... there error stack is exactly the same, which you can see below.

Are people just dealing with this? I'm seriously looking at dumping Jenkins for this. Every single PR fails until I run it manually the first time.

Stewart Bryson you can either use the build from my github repository or build it yourself. That build resolves the issues I've seen.

Jacques-Etienne Beaudet have you installed the 1.2.3 version of Autofavorite for Blue Ocean? That resolved the issue for me.

We installed Blue Ocean this morning (latest released versions of all plugins) and immediately started having the first build of every new branch/PR fail due to this bug. I'm going to uninstall.

In our case, it was Blue Ocean 1.14.0, Autofavorite 1.2.3, and Jenkins 2.164.1 LTS.

Thanks for that pointer Christian Häussler!

I have enough jobs in my Jenkins server that I find the Blue Ocean autofavorite plugin more of a hindrance than a help. You've now given me a setting that may avoid me getting favorites that aren't actually my favorites. JENKINS-47214 describes that property.

It is also mentioned in the plugin release notes for release 1.2.1

Still not fixed, Blue Ocean 1.21.0, Autofavorite for Blue Ocean 1.2.4, Jenkins 2.150.3

Anyone working on this? I probably have to completely remove Blue Ocean from our pipeline because of this little Autofavorite bug (I can't use Christian Häussler's suggestions of -DBLUEOCEAN_FEATURE_AUTOFAVORITE_ENABLED=false because I don't have admin access to my team's Jenkins instance).

In our case the culprit was not restarting the Jenkins instance after the initial install of all the Blue Ocean plugins (including Autofavorite), which is not normally required when installing a new plugin. Every first build of a new branch/PR failed with this problem after that. Our solution was uninstalling every one of the Blue Ocean plugins (which was painful, given how many there are), restarting Jenkins to complete the uninstall, installing Blue Ocean plugins again, and restarting Jenkins again (the step we'd missed before). After that, it has worked perfectly.
