I have a build flow job where the first step I need to execute is writing a file to disk:
Properties props = new Properties(); props.setProperty("Var1", "asdasd"); File f = new File("Configs.properties"); OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream( f ); props.store(out,null); When I run the job I get: Building in workspace /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/test-flow ERROR: Failed to run DSL Scriptjava.io.FileNotFoundException <http://stacktrace.jenkins-ci.org/search?query=java.io.FileNotFoundException>: Configs.properties (Permission denied) at java.io.FileOutputStream.open(Native Method) at java.io.FileOutputStream.<init>(FileOutputStream.java:209) at java.io.FileOutputStream.<init>(FileOutputStream.java:160) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.java:57) at sun.reflect.DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.java:45) at java.lang.reflect.Constructor.newInstance(Constructor.java:532) at org.codehaus.groovy.reflection.CachedConstructor.invoke(CachedConstructor.java:77) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.ConstructorSite$ConstructorSiteNoUnwrapNoCoerce.callConstructor(ConstructorSite.java:102) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.CallSiteArray.defaultCallConstructor(CallSiteArray.java:54) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.AbstractCallSite.callConstructor(AbstractCallSite.java:182) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.AbstractCallSite.callConstructor(AbstractCallSite.java:190) at Script1.run(Script1.groovy:4) at Script1$run.call(Unknown Source) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.CallSiteArray.defaultCall(CallSiteArray.java:42) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.AbstractCallSite.call(AbstractCallSite.java:108) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.AbstractCallSite.call(AbstractCallSite.java:112) at com.cloudbees.plugins.flow.FlowDSL.executeFlowScript(FlowDSL.groovy:82) at com.cloudbees.plugins.flow.FlowRun$RunnerImpl.doRun(FlowRun.java:154) at hudson.model.AbstractBuild$AbstractBuildExecution.run(AbstractBuild.java:566) at hudson.model.Run.execute(Run.java:1678) at hudson.model.Run.run(Run.java:1625) at com.cloudbees.plugins.flow.FlowRun.run(FlowRun.java:133) at hudson.model.ResourceController.execute(ResourceController.java:88) at hudson.model.Executor.run(Executor.java:231) at hudson.model.OneOffExecutor.run(OneOffExecutor.java:43) FATAL: Configs.properties (Permission denied)java.io.FileNotFoundException <http://stacktrace.jenkins-ci.org/search?query=java.io.FileNotFoundException>: Configs.properties (Permission denied) Why does jenkins not have rights to write a file to the workspace where its executing the job? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
