error trying to clone submodule

[Arturo Arenas]

hello,

I'm trying to clone a submodule but it's fail. I'm using pipeline script 

                checkout([$class: 'GitSCM',
                          branches: [[name: 'master']],
                          doGenerateSubmoduleConfigurations: false,
                          extensions: [[$class: 'CleanBeforeCheckout'],
                                       [$class: 'SubmoduleOption',
                                        disableSubmodules: false,
                                        parentCredentials: true,
                                        recursiveSubmodules: true,
                                        reference: '',
                                        trackingSubmodules: false]],
                          submoduleCfg: [],
                          userRemoteConfigs: [[credentialsId: 'ssh_key_id', url: 'ssh://g...@url.git']]])

And i get the next error:

hudson.plugins.git.GitException: Command "git submodule update --init --recursive mylib" returned status code 1: stdout: stderr: Cloning into '/var/jenkins_home/workspace/myproject/mylib'...

/var/jenkins_home/workspace/myproject/.git/modules/mylib: Permission denied

fatal: clone of 'ssh://git@url/mylib.git' into submodule path '/var/jenkins_home/workspace/myproject/mylib' failed

Failed to clone 'mylib'. Retry scheduled

Cloning into '/var/jenkins_home/workspace/myproject/mylib'...

/var/jenkins_home/workspace/myproject/.git/modules/mylib: Permission denied

fatal: clone of 'ssh://git@url/mylib.git' into submodule path '/var/jenkins_home/workspace/myproject/mylib' failed

Failed to clone 'mylib' a second time, aborting

Also, i tried to test in my computer with " git clone ssh://url --recursive" and work fine the submodule. 

what could be happening?

i appreciate any help! thanks!

best regards!

This is what I do use and it work for me

 

checkout([$class: 'GitSCM'

                , branches: [[name: 'master']]

                , browser: [$class: 'BitbucketWeb', repoUrl: 'https://bitbucket.org/mynamepath.git']

                , doGenerateSubmoduleConfigurations: false

                , extensions: [[$class: 'CloneOption', noTags: false], [$class: 'LocalBranch', localBranch: "**"], [$class: 'SubmoduleOption', disableSubmodules: false, parentCredentials: true, recursiveSubmodules: true, reference: '', trackingSubmodules: false], [$class: 'CleanCheckout']]

                , submoduleCfg: []

                , userRemoteConfigs: [[credentialsId: 'MyCredsId', url: 'https://bitbucket.org/mynamepath.git']]

            ]);

 

the only difference my eyes can spot is

[$class: 'CleanCheckout']]

 

I also use the https and not ssh, maybe something is wrong into ssh

I tried like you told me but this failed again with the error:

hudson.plugins.git.GitException: Command "git submodule sync" returned status code 128:

stdout: Synchronizing submodule url for 'mylib'

stderr: error: could not lock config file /var/jenkins_home/workspace/myproject/.git/modules/mylib/config: Permission denied

Have you try to clean the workspace and rerun the project, seem like a local permission is wrong into your .git folder.

check the permission on the file:

/var/jenkins_home/workspace/myproject/.git/modules/mylib/config

 

check if the Jenkins user should normally have r/w access to it?

I resolved that with the below script pipeline:

            steps {
                git credentialsId: 'ssh_key_id', url: 'ssh://git@url.git', branch: 'master'

                withEnv(['GIT_SSH_COMMAND=ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no']) {
                    sshagent(credentials: ['ssh_key_id'])  {
                        sh "git rm -rf mylibs/"
                        sh "git clone ssh://git@url/mylibs.git"
                        sh "git submodule sync"
                        sh "git submodule init"
                        sh "git submodule update"
                    }
                }
            }

Thanks a lot for your support, i really appreciate that!!

Best Regards!
