842844 - jenkins job hangs during build for services-server-core, serices-server-reg and services-node-assignemnt

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Ryan Kelly [:rfkelly]]

The following three jenkins jobs are currently failing to build/run correctly:

  services-server-core
  services-server-reg
  services-node-assignment

They appear to hang indefinitely in the early phases of the build process, hogging resources until they are manually aborted.  Example of an aborted build:

  https://ci.mozilla.org/job/services-node-assignment/1583/


I have tried to debug the issue but with no real success.  Some observations:

 * Console output appears to stall indefinitely at "Started by timer\n[EnvInject] - Loading node environment variables."
 * Deleting the job and re-creating it doesn't help, the new job still fails in the same way
 * Removing all build and post-build steps doesn't help, the now-empty job still fails in the same way
 * Renaming the job appears to fix the problem, e.g. moving "services-server-core" to "services-server-core-old".  But that's pretty yuck, and renaming it back to the original name makes the problem re-appear.
 * Setting the job to "Abort the build if it's stuck" doesn't help and doesn't actually cause the job to be aborted.


So I'm a bit lost as to what's going on.  Any advice or suggestions?

In the meantime I have disabled periodic building of these jobs, so they should not tie up server resources for now.

Is this still an issue? Please let me know and if it is we'll triage for someone to investigate

Thanks

Thanks for bumping this, I've just checked and the jobs now seem to be completing fine.
