Hi,

I have a pipeline that runs fine when scheduled on an agent:

 
                                                                node {
  try {
    stage('Checkout') {
      checkout scm
      checkout scm: [$class: 'GitSCM', branches: [[name: '*/master']], doGenerateSubmoduleConfigurations: false, extensions: [[$class: 'RelativeTargetDirectory', relativeTargetDir: 'templates']], submoduleCfg: [], userRemoteConfigs: [[url: 'github.com:xxx.git', credentialsId: 'xxx']]], poll: true
    }
    currentBuild.result = 'SUCCESS'
  } catch (e) {
    currentBuild.result = 'FAILURE'
    throw e
  } finally {
    step([$class: 'Mailer', notifyEveryUnstableBuild: true, recipients: 'xxx', sendToIndividuals: false])
  }
}
 
                                                            

but when I use withMaven, I get an Exception:

 
                                                                node {
  try {
    stage('Checkout') {
      checkout scm
      checkout scm: [$class: 'GitSCM', branches: [[name: '*/master']], doGenerateSubmoduleConfigurations: false, extensions: [[$class: 'RelativeTargetDirectory', relativeTargetDir: 'templates']], submoduleCfg: [], userRemoteConfigs: [[url: 'github.com:xxx.git', credentialsId: 'xxx']]], poll: true
    }
    stage('Test') {
      withMaven(jdk: 'default', maven: 'default', ) {
        sh "mvn clean test"
      }
      step([$class: 'JUnitResultArchiver', testResults: 'target/surefire-reports/*.xml'])
    }
    currentBuild.result = 'SUCCESS'
  } catch (e) {
    currentBuild.result = 'FAILURE'
    throw e

Hi,

I have a pipeline that runs fine when scheduled on an agent:

{code:java}

node {
  try {
    stage('Checkout') {
      checkout scm
      checkout scm: [$class: 'GitSCM', branches: [[name: '*/master']], doGenerateSubmoduleConfigurations: false, extensions: [[$class: 'RelativeTargetDirectory', relativeTargetDir: 'templates']], submoduleCfg: [], userRemoteConfigs: [[url: 'github.com:xxx.git', credentialsId: 'xxx']]], poll: true
    }
    currentBuild.result = 'SUCCESS'
  } catch (e) {
    currentBuild.result = 'FAILURE'
    throw e
  } finally {
    step([$class: 'Mailer', notifyEveryUnstableBuild: true, recipients: 'xxx', sendToIndividuals: false])
  }
}

{code}

but when I use withMaven, I get an Exception:

{code:java}

node {
  try {
    stage('Checkout') {
      checkout scm
      checkout scm: [$class: 'GitSCM', branches: [[name: '*/master']], doGenerateSubmoduleConfigurations: false, extensions: [[$class: 'RelativeTargetDirectory', relativeTargetDir: 'templates']], submoduleCfg: [], userRemoteConfigs: [[url: 'github.com:xxx.git', credentialsId: 'xxx']]], poll: true
    }
    stage('Test') {
      withMaven(jdk: 'default', maven: 'default'

, ) {

        sh "mvn clean test"
      }
      step([$class: 'JUnitResultArchiver', testResults: 'target/surefire-reports/*.xml'])
    }
    currentBuild.result = 'SUCCESS'
  } catch (e) {
    currentBuild.result = 'FAILURE'

Re: Pipeline withMaven Failed to serialize on agent

I was having a similar error message and problem with withMaven not running on either slave or master.
Updated all plugins and core Jenkins from 2.21 to 2.23 and it seems to be working.
The cause is unknown, I'm pretty sure it was working with the old versions of everything...

Are you sure this is related to withMaven?, see: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-38122

Re: Pipeline withMaven Failed to serialize on agent

The only thing I know is that without the withMaven it works. I found ~~JENKINS-38122~~ before opening this issue but the solution to the problem is missing in the ticket.

I now use a workaround with a docker container to provide maven and it works for me:

Jenkinsfile

 
                                                                  def environment  = docker.build 'xyz:snapshot'
    environment.inside {
      stage('Test') {
        sh "mvn clean test"

        step([$class: 'JUnitResultArchiver', testResults: 'target/surefire-reports/*.xml'])
      }
    }

Dockerfile

Re: Pipeline withMaven Failed to serialize on agent

XStream refuses to serialize com.google.inject.CreationException. I have seen it debugging a problem on the Configuration File Provider Plugin.

The root cause of the problem was hidden by this XStream serialization exception. Maybe we could improve Jenkins / Xstream doing one of the following:

Make Jenkins capable of serializing com.google.inject.CreationException so that the root exception is not hidden
Add a log message in hudson.util.XStream2.BlacklistedTypesConverter#marshal

Re: Pipeline withMaven Failed to serialize on agent

The error message if the JDK name is invalid is the expected message: "ERROR: Could not find the JDK installation: default-does-not-exist. Make sure it is configured on the Global Tool Configuration page"
The error message if both JDK names and Maven name are invalid is a good message: "ERROR: Could not find the JDK installation: default-does-not-exist. Make sure it is configured on the Global Tool Configuration page"
The error message if the Maven name is invalid is the good message: "ERROR: Could not find 'default-does-not-exist' maven installation."

Re: Pipeline withMaven Failed to serialize on agent

Hello Denis,

We seem to have a problem with the c.g.i.CreationException that gets hidden by the XStream2$BlacklistedTypesConverter and this problem hides the root cause of your problem.

We are working at fixing the problem with the BlacklistedTypesConverter that hides the the c.g.i.CreationException.

Can you detail more what is the symlink that cause your failure? Can you provide an "ls -al" of the parent folder ...

Jesse Glick do you think that Pipeline / XStream2$BlacklistedTypesConverter could provide more detailed stack traces in such case?

Re: Pipeline withMaven Failed to serialize on agent

A newer release of workflow-api already does better. Anyway this is tangential to the root cause here, still TBD.

Re: Pipeline withMaven Failed to serialize on agent

Probably a duplicate of the other issue in this component.

Re: Pipeline withMaven Failed to serialize on agent

Thanks Jesse Glick, you are right, we still need to understand what is the root cause, why the instantiation of the component through Juice failed.

Re: Pipeline withMaven Failed to serialize on agent

We're also running into this issue, but it is not always reproducible. Sometimes, after restarting Jenkins, the exception does not occur any more.
For example, build http://buildfarm.metaborg.org/job/metaborg/job/spoofax-releng/job/master/88/console failed because of the issue. But after a restart of Jenkins (and no other changes occurred), build http://buildfarm.metaborg.org/job/metaborg/job/spoofax-releng/job/master/89/console from the same job suddenly works.
