| I am getting the same error, but I suppose it is related to the "Project Inheritance" Plugin, when it is trying to load and read the file "config_project_creation.xml" If I delete this file from $JENKINS_HOME, I can start Jenkins correctly. If I go to "Manage Jenkins" > "Inheritance Configuration" and click save, a new file is created and Jenkins stops working. https://github.com/i-m-c/jenkins-inheritance-plugin/blob/master/src/main/java/hudson/plugins/project_inheritance/projects/creation/ProjectCreationEngine.java |
