When creating new jobs using Jenkins Job Builder, the job ends up not being registered in the Zuul Gearman Server. That causes jobs to never be find and report an error such as: https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/job/mwext-TextExtracts-jslint/None/console : LOST In Zuul /var/log/zuul/debug.log we have: 2014-04-10 07:41:38,332 DEBUG zuul.Gearman: Function build:mwext-TextExtracts-jslint is not registered Querying the Gearman server: $ echo status|nc -q 3 localhost 4730|grep TextExtracts $ The Jenkins debug log does not show any event related to TextExtracts. It seems the Gearman plugin does not trigger jobs registration when jobs are created via Jenkins REST API. Workaround: use the web GUI to save any job and that triggers the registration of any missing jobs.
Reported upstream as https://bugs.launchpad.net/gearman-plugin/+bug/1353891 That is an issue in Jenkins Gearman Plugin which might not work properly with the latest Jenkins LTS version we are using.
I am tracking this with upstream on launchpad. Not much I can do beside giving them traces / informations.
I managed to describe how to reproduce the issue and confirmed it. Upstream author Khai Do happily followed up with a code update which is being proposed on https://review.openstack.org/125755 The root cause is a change in Jenkins core events a plugin can listen to.
I have upgraded Jenkins Gearman plugin to fix jobs registrations: * cherry picked https://review.openstack.org/#/c/125755/ patchset 8 * compiled it via maven * uploaded and restarted Jenkins The job do register. I am keeping this bug opened while upstream patch is polished.
Upstream patch has been merged and applied on our setup. Need to verify whether the gearman plugin has been actually released and switch to that version (should be 0.8).
The plugin has been released and is applied on our Jenkins. Jobs created via JJB are now properly registered with Zuul Gearman server upon creation.
