Publish over SSH plugin not transferring any files

[Patrick White]

I want to transfer files from my post build Jenkins workspace to a location on a remote server. Build goes smoothly for all steps in the job but always transfers 0 files.

This is the console output:

Started by user Patrick
    Building in workspace /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/20eyes Build/workspace
    Fetching changes from the remote Git repository
    Fetching upstream changes from https://github.com/project/project.git
    using .gitcredentials to set credentials
    Checking out Revision a758e0f8e534271b999a2fc8696b6fd5a3d5e500 (origin/master)
    executing script:

    SSH: Connecting from host [dev1.remotehost]
    SSH: Connecting with configuration [dev2.remotehost] ...
    SSH: Disconnecting configuration [dev2.remotehost] ...
    SSH: Transferred 0 file(s)
    Build step 'Send files or execute commands over SSH' changed build result to  SUCCESS
    Finished: SUCCESS

The job is configured to build after any commit is pushed to GitHub

The transfer set is: Source Files:

/var/lib/jenkins/jobs/20eyes Build/workspace/**/*

Remove prefix:

/var/lib/jenkins/jobs/20eyes Build/workspace

Please Help!!

Quick thought - trying changing transfer set to "**/*" (i.e. drop directory off) as the transfer should be relative to the workspace root anyway IIRC.

That did it! After adjusting that and some permissions changes it worked like a charm. Thanks so much for the help!!

No problem. If I recall I think the code might deliberately ignore absolute file sets like that (as a security measure no doubt)

What does your file pattern look like and have you verified that the files exist that you want to transfer?

Looks to me like the Ansible playbook is running on the remote server but there's nothing actually copying the files to the remote server so the playbook doesn't have anything to copy.

However I've only have taken a quick peek so apologies if I've misread the situation.

Which module are you using in your Ansible playbook task?

https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/copy_module.html Is used for copying from local to remote.
