Jenkins is not starting up after upgrade to Version: 2.387.3

[Ravindra Verma]

Hi  Folks , 

I upgrade Jenkins to Version: 2.387.3 on ubuntu using package Manager .

now its crashed and not stating up , from the logs i found below errors : 

 - Failed to load: Pipeline: Shared Groovy Libraries (workflow-cps-global-lib 2.17)

- Failed to load: Jenkins Git client plugin (git-client 3.5.1)

- java.io.IOException: Failed to load: NodeJS Plugin (nodejs 1.3.9)

Please suggest how to fix this .

Check earlier in the log file and you'll probably find a reason why those plugins did not load.  Some other plugin may have failed to load or a dependency was not satisfied or some other issue was stated in the log file.

Based on the version numbers of those plugins, you may have missed the instructions in previous upgrade guides that state that you need to upgrade plugins to their most recent releases and you need to remove deprecated plugins.

The workflow cps global lib plugin 2.17 is deprecated and should be uninstalled.  Replace it with https://plugins.jenkins.io/pipeline-groovy-lib/

The git client plugin 3.5.1 was released 2.5 years ago.  Upgrade it to git client plugin 4.2.0

NodeJS plugin 1.3.9 was released 2.5 years ago.  Upgrade it to nodejs plugin 1.6.0

Based on those three versions, there are probably other plugin versions that need to be upgraded.

I think that you may have misunderstood what I wrote.  The most important part of what I wrote is the first paragraph that says:

> Check earlier in the log file and you'll probably find a reason why those plugins did not load.  Some other plugin may have failed to load or a dependency was not satisfied or some other issue was stated in the log file.

Performing the other actions is secondary to understanding what caused the plugins to fail to load.  Read the log file.  If the log file contents are not clear to you, then upload the log file to some public location where you can share the link with others so that they can read the log file if you don't understand the details of what it is saying.  GitHub gist or some other snippet hosting service would be a good place to put the log file for review by others.  If the log file contains sensitive information, you'll want to remove that sensitive information before you upload it.

Alternatively, you can use the Ubuntu package manager to install the older version.  However, that won't provide you the critical information that you need.  The critical information that you need is, "Why did the plugins fail to load?"  That information is in the log file.

You can upgrade it in ur cli .Go to the directory cd /var/lib/jenkins/ where jenkins is installed.Use the below command.

java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://localhost:8080/ install-plugin PLUGIN_NAME

To upgrade all plugins at once 

java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://localhost:8080/ install-plugin --all

Replace  http://localhost:8080 with your jenkins local instance.

Restart the jenkins

java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://localhost:8080/ safe-restart
