[Geoserver-devel] Build server issues (now fixed)

Hi All,

It looks like the build.geoserver.org got clogged up a few days ago, and had some builds hanging for a few days.
Updating and restarting Jenkins appears to have fixed the issue, but please let me know if you see any builds running for longer than 4 hours, and please be patient while Jenkins works through the job backlog.

If anyone is interested in more details on the issue, see below:

The problematic builds have logs that look like this:

Started by timer
Running as SYSTEM
Building


After which the build hangs . When aborted, they usually produce errors like this:

> ERROR: Step ‘Archive the artifacts’ failed: no workspace for geofence-3.4.x-nightly #40
> ERROR: Step ‘E-mail Notification’ aborted due to exception: 
> java.lang.InterruptedException
> 	...

It seemed to have been mainly geofence jobs that exhibited this issue, but that may have been coincidence.
I’m not entirely sure what the root cause of the issue was, so if anyone’s seen something similar before, I’d be interested in details.

Cheers,
Torben
