[JIRA] (JENKINS-16384) Blocking on downstream projects

[cjo9...@java.net (JIRA)]

cjo9900 commented on JENKINS-16384 Blocking on downstream projects I have added the Slave Prerequisites plugin to Job E (without the block upstream enabled) and that seems to block job A as expected even if job E is started from other places. This is because the plugin blocks at the executor level and the block on downstream check does include queued jobs. So cannot see a particular cause of why Job A should run if Job E is in the queue, unless it is a timing issue in that when the join trigger schedules job E it is not seen by Job A when it does its checks which is probably Queue related item. Which I cannot really investigate unless there is a particular case that can be seen causing job A to run instead of job E. If you can get logs on why Job E is being blocked in the queue, before Job A is started then a particular case might be found that can be invistigated.
