jenkins not showing viewvc link for CVS

[Terry O'Leary]

Hey Folks,

I have been looking into this issue for a while now. Basically the problem is that when I look on the changes view of a job particularly using a project with the CVS repository, the code changes no longer show as a link using the ViewVC plugin. I can see the changes in a job, but they don't appear as a link to ViewVC.

I ran an older version of Jenkins (version 1.534) and used the ViewVC plugin (version 1.6) and I was able to see the link in any jobs that has changes from the previous build. 

I recently built up a new Jenkins (version 2.65) with the ViewVC plugin (version 1.7) and while I see the changes, they are not linking to ViewVC. 

The version of ViewVC I used with the old Jenkins was 1.1.20 and it works. However the new setup does not work. I actually upgraded to the most recent version 1.1.26 of ViewVC and it still works with the old version of Jenkins, but not the new version. I don't see any errors in the jenkins logs either.

I don't see any option to rollback the ViewVC plugin to 1.6 via the plugin manager. If anyone has encountered this before any input would be great!

Also on a side note, we also use Git and I am able to setup jobs that use Git repository to link their changes just fine.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Terry,

 

this sounds related or like https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-36451 and/or https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-44956.

Would you mind checking that and ideally also commenting and/or up-voting the respective issues?

 

Frankly, I am not sure though, whether or not these are the root causes of the problem…

I agree these issues do look similar. I will log an issue and link these 2 so they will be related.

Thanks!
