We are running Jenkins ver. 1.447.1 and was hoping the latest upgrade
would resolve this but the outcome is the same. The jvm arguments we
are configuring in the Goals and options field are not making it into
the application and unit tests when the Jenkins job executes. We are
seeing the following in the console output:

Executing Maven:  -B -f /opt/hudson/home/jobs/alex-vendor/workspace/
pom.xml clean package -DAWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=xxxxxxxxxxxx -
DAWS_SECRET_KEY=xxxxxxxxxxxx -
DJDBC_CONNECTION_STRING=jdbc:postgresql://xxxxxxxxxxxx:5432/test?
user=xxxx&yyyy=aws -DPARAM1=5 -DPARAM2=localhost:8080 -DPARAM3=false

This output looks great and I anticipated everything working but for
whatever reason, these jvm args seem to be filtered out and never make
it to our unit tests. We've even tried encapsulating each jvm arg in
double quotes, but the results are the same (unit test failures).

The only way we've been successful in passing these arguments is
through the maven-surefire-plugin (via argLine element) which isn't
adequate for us; we need to change credentials on a per job basis.

Lastly, we even tried the EnvInject Plugin but unfortunately, that
gave us no success as well.

Does anyone see what we have misconfigured? Our application never sees
the JDBC_CONNECTION_STRING jvm arg and throws an exception b/c it's
missing when the job executes.

Thanks for any help.
