Jenkins / JENKINS-42280 Nullpointer on BasicSSHUserPrivateKey passphrase Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Stephen Connolly Components: ssh-credentials-plugin Created: 2017/Feb/23 1:11 PM Priority: Major Reporter: Boris Schrijver Hi, When running the same script as mentioned in this ticket: JENKINS-34653, I've got a new NullPointerException. It looks like the passphrase field in the following file remains null while it actually should contain the password from the credentials. https://github.com/jenkinsci/ssh-credentials-plugin/blob/384a93e3c188a1b01b1d92279bd5426dabb4e5ee/src/main/java/com/cloudbees/jenkins/plugins/sshcredentials/impl/BasicSSHUserPrivateKey.java java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot get property 'plainText' on null object at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.NullObject.getProperty(NullObject.java:60) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.InvokerHelper.getProperty(InvokerHelper.java:174) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.NullCallSite.getProperty(NullCallSite.java:47) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.AbstractCallSite.callGetProperty(AbstractCallSite.java:296) at Script1.run(Script1.groovy:34) Add Comment

Jenkins / JENKINS-42280 Nullpointer on BasicSSHUserPrivateKey passphrase

Change By: Boris Schrijver Hi, When running the same script as mentioned in this ticket: [JENKINS-34653], I've got a new NullPointerException.

It looks like the passphrase field in the following file remains null while it actually should contain the password from the credentials.

https://github.com/jenkinsci/ssh-credentials-plugin/blob/384a93e3c188a1b01b1d92279bd5426dabb4e5ee/src/main/java/com/cloudbees/jenkins/plugins/sshcredentials/impl/BasicSSHUserPrivateKey.java In the script the variable { {credentials.passphrase}} is null and therefore invoking {{credentials.passphrase.plainText}} will result in a nullpointer. The question is, why does {{credentials.passphrase}} remain null? { code}

java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot get property 'plainText' on null object at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.NullObject.getProperty(NullObject.java:60) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.InvokerHelper.getProperty(InvokerHelper.java:174) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.NullCallSite.getProperty(NullCallSite.java:47) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.AbstractCallSite.callGetProperty(AbstractCallSite.java:296) at Script1.run(Script1.groovy:34)

Re: Nullpointer on BasicSSHUserPrivateKey passphrase This is important for automating credentials management via tools like Chef and Puppet. See https://github.com/chef-cookbooks/jenkins/issues/561 for an example of the impact.

Stephen Connolly assigned an issue to Unassigned

Removing myself as assignee. My current work assignments do not provide sufficient bandwidth to review these issues and in the majority of cases I am only assigned by virtue of being the default assignee. For the credentials-api and scm-api related plugins I have permission to allocate time reviewing changes to these APIs themselves to ensure these APIs remain cohesive, but that can be handled through PR reviews rather than assigning issues in JIRA
