Hi, Our jenkins (1.460) build of a Python+Django setup just started failing with a fairly mysterious error.
The build is 2 jobs, one to checkout and setup (via virtualenv) our envionment. It then uses the "Archive for Cloned Workspace SCM" to archive this workspace. The 2nd job uses the cloned archive (workspace.tar.gz) and runs Python tests on it. This setup was working great until recently, when the untar of workspace.tar.gz started failing. The failure is: Restoring workspace from build #159 of project checkout hudson.util.IOException2: Failed to extract workspace.tar.gz at hudson.FilePath.readFromTar(FilePath.java:1817) at hudson.FilePath.access$200(FilePath.java:166) at hudson.FilePath$3.invoke(FilePath.java:461) at hudson.FilePath$3.invoke(FilePath.java:459) at hudson.FilePath.act(FilePath.java:832) at hudson.FilePath.act(FilePath.java:814) at hudson.FilePath.untar(FilePath.java:459) at hudson.plugins.cloneworkspace.CloneWorkspacePublisher$WorkspaceSnapshotTar.restoreTo(CloneWorkspacePublisher.java:235) at hudson.plugins.cloneworkspace.CloneWorkspaceSCM$Snapshot.restoreTo(CloneWorkspaceSCM.java:383) at hudson.plugins.cloneworkspace.CloneWorkspaceSCM.checkout(CloneWorkspaceSCM.java:149) at hudson.model.AbstractProject.checkout(AbstractProject.java:1218) at hudson.model.AbstractBuild$AbstractRunner.checkout(AbstractBuild.java:581) at hudson.model.AbstractBuild$AbstractRunner.run(AbstractBuild.java:470) at hudson.model.Run.run(Run.java:1421) 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: java.io.IOException: Failed to chmod /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/test/workspace/wsve/lib/python2.6/UserDict.py : Operation not permitted at hudson.FilePath._chmod(FilePath.java:1248) at hudson.FilePath.readFromTar(FilePath.java:1813) ... 16 more Skipping Cobertura coverage report as build was not UNSTABLE or better ...
