Hi Guys,
Initially all was well and my Jenkins config.xml was configured for just
JDK7.
I then added a JDK6 installation to Jenkins config and did a new build
manually.
The build failed and on examination I realized my project requires JDK7 to
build.
So I edited my Jenkins config to delete the JDK6 installation I had added
prior to previous build that had failed.
Now only the JDK7 installation was left in Jenkins config.
I did another build but now I see that it is still trying to build with JDK6
only instead of the JDK6 installation I had added from Oracle it is now
using the JDK 6 that is part of my Ubuntu setup.
What am I doing wrong and how can I make Jenkins only use the JDK7 that I
have configured?
You should be able to use multiple JDK versions and select them by
job. In the global jenkins configuration under JDK installations,
give each JDK a name, then in the node configurations under tool
locations, add the appropriate path to each named JDK installation.
And in the job, pick the JDK version by name.
The fix was to make sure I had multiple JDKs configured in global
config. This enabled the JDK selection pulldown to be visible above
"Advanced Project Options" section. There I select a specific JDK (JDK 7
in my case) and all is well.
Note that I do not recall ever setting a JDK for my job explicitly.
It seems that Jenkins had originally correctly chosen on its own my only
configured JDK (instead of Default JDK).
When I added and deleted a second JDK then Jenkins on its own switched
to Default JDK (instead of the only configured JDK).
This seems to be unexpected behavior.
