Chris Kilding edited a comment on JENKINS-60652   Re: plugin breaks jenkins without a connection to AWS From what you've said I think there are 3 broad error cases to look at: * Listing credentials: there is indeed a bug here. Instead of throwing the exception it should probably return an uncached empty credential list, and log a warning in the Jenkins logs. * Get credential value within this provider: The credentials provider standard document insists that remote providers must throw an exception if they are asked to provide the value but can't contact their backing store. This will crash the build, but there is no choice here. * Get credential value only from other providers, on a Jenkins server where this plugin just happens to be installed: Yep, sounds like a bug too. I'm still working out what the behaviour should be here. We should also clarify the correct behaviour in the credentials provider standard document, which currently only specifies what should happen when getting the value fails (throw exception).
