Alan Harder commented on JENKINS-12918: --------------------------------------- oh, I was right there was confusion, but just now I figured out what it was... I see that "Run parameter" is one of the choices for the types of parameters you can add in a job, and indeed you can make one for picking a particular build from a particular project, like "IFW". Copy Artifact's "from build parameter" option does not support this type of parameter. It only supports the "Build selector for Copy Artifact" type of build parameter. You can select "specific build" here, but you have to type the build number.. you won't get a list of existing build numbers the way a "Run parameter" shows. > a job dedicated to copyartifacts from a build specified by a build paramter > (ie a run parameter) fails when launched manuallyco > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: JENKINS-12918 > URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-12918 > Project: Jenkins > Issue Type: Bug > Components: copyartifact > Environment: Jenkins ver. 1.450 > copy artifacts plugin v1.21 > Reporter: christopheM > Assignee: Alan Harder > Attachments: config.xml > > > The tested job is minimalist: > - it defines a Run parameter (named "IFW") to select a build from the job > "IFW" > - it defines a "copy artifacts from another project" specified by a "build > parameter", the parameter name beeing "IFW", and selectif the followinfg > artifacts "**/*zip" > When manually launching the job, selecting the (succesful) last build of the > IFW job, I got the following error: > FATAL: : only whitespace content allowed before start tag and not h > (position: START_DOCUMENT seen h... @1:1) > com.thoughtworks.xstream.io.StreamException: : only whitespace content > allowed before start tag and not h (position: START_DOCUMENT seen h... @1:1) > at > com.thoughtworks.xstream.io.xml.XppReader.pullNextEvent(XppReader.java:78) > at > com.thoughtworks.xstream.io.xml.AbstractPullReader.readRealEvent(AbstractPullReader.java:154) > at > com.thoughtworks.xstream.io.xml.AbstractPullReader.readEvent(AbstractPullReader.java:147) > at > com.thoughtworks.xstream.io.xml.AbstractPullReader.move(AbstractPullReader.java:126) > at > com.thoughtworks.xstream.io.xml.AbstractPullReader.moveDown(AbstractPullReader.java:111) > at com.thoughtworks.xstream.io.xml.XppReader.<init>(XppReader.java:48) > at > com.thoughtworks.xstream.io.xml.XppDriver.createReader(XppDriver.java:44) > at com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream.fromXML(XStream.java:856) > at com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream.fromXML(XStream.java:848) > at > hudson.plugins.copyartifact.BuildSelectorParameter.getSelectorFromXml(BuildSelectorParameter.java:81) > at > hudson.plugins.copyartifact.ParameterizedBuildSelector.getBuild(ParameterizedBuildSelector.java:52) > at > hudson.plugins.copyartifact.CopyArtifact.perform(CopyArtifact.java:164) > at hudson.tasks.BuildStepMonitor$1.perform(BuildStepMonitor.java:19) > at > hudson.model.AbstractBuild$AbstractRunner.perform(AbstractBuild.java:700) > at hudson.model.Build$RunnerImpl.build(Build.java:178) > at hudson.model.Build$RunnerImpl.doRun(Build.java:139) > at hudson.model.AbstractBuild$AbstractRunner.run(AbstractBuild.java:470) > at hudson.model.Run.run(Run.java:1409) > at hudson.model.FreeStyleBuild.run(FreeStyleBuild.java:46) > at hudson.model.ResourceController.execute(ResourceController.java:88) > at hudson.model.Executor.run(Executor.java:238) > Caused by: org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException: only whitespace content > allowed before start tag and not h (position: START_DOCUMENT seen h... @1:1) > at org.xmlpull.mxp1.MXParser.parseProlog(MXParser.java:1519) > at org.xmlpull.mxp1.MXParser.nextImpl(MXParser.java:1395) > at org.xmlpull.mxp1.MXParser.next(MXParser.java:1093) > at > com.thoughtworks.xstream.io.xml.XppReader.pullNextEvent(XppReader.java:63) > ... 20 more -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
