Config.xml of the job gets lost/deleted randomnly on jenkins restart or saving the configuration after changing it

[touseef yousuf]

Im currently facing an issue where the config.xml of my created jobs gets deleted randomly on Jenkins restart and the job is no longer available on the view,even the job folder is present on file system but without config.xml .I have no idea what leads to this randomn disappearance of the config.xml file

Even in some cases jenkins doesnot allow me to change the name of already existing job?

Do you backup the jobs directory ? If yes, you can replace the existing config.xml with the one from backups. Also , when you make changes to a Job configuration in Jenkins hit save but Not APPLY . If you click on Apply , I noticed that config.xml will disappear.
