Spaces in job name cause exception about scm-sync-configuration-plugin HOT 16 CLOSED

I am seeing the same thing. Affects a lot of our jobs.

from scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

The same thing applies for user names. We encounter problems there at the moment due to GIT creating users from Commit Messages. So i think it is basically a thing with wrong URI encoding in SCM.

from scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

I'm seeing this as well. Using SCM Sync Configuration Plugin 0.0.9 and Jenkins version 1.642.3.

Despite this bug, this plugin is rad! Thanks!

from scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

We're being affected by this bug as well.

We get this error when it fails:

Any hope for a fix?

@ip2k @Zitrax @foundatron, how do you recover from this?

from scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

I came across this issue too and found out what the problem is.
The error is in the dependency maven-scm-provider-gitexe-1.9.1.jar

Illegal character in path at index 0: "jobs

says it all. The quote at char 0 breaks the whole thing. Meanwhile this has been fixed, but sadly no current release is up (even version 1.9.4 still has the error).
I cloned (git://git.apache.org/maven-scm.git), checked out tag 1.9.4 and fixed the error in file GitStatusConsumer.java
Then recompiled this lib and pushed it into the plugin scm-sync-configuration.hpi
This solved the problem for me.

Attached you find the patch
and the precompiled jar, which can be replaced into the hpi file.
Also for simplicity I attached the fully patched 0.0.9 of this plugin.

@christau, great work, many thanks!

I'll try it out tonight.

from scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

I have the same error. Job has %2F in name (slash from branch name - multibranch pipeline).
I create catalogue from error in checkoutConfiguration and manually commit it.
It resolves this problem, but I have to check it with new branches.

from scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

@christau I sent this request to the Maven developers. Any idea how to push it along?

Issue has been fixed in this Commit: apache/maven-scm@68eecff

Fix should take part in upcoming release of maven-scm. Please update dependency in next release of scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

from scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

@jarmoni do you know when the release is happening? Last I saw was this:

@rodrigc No I haven't. I'm not related with maven-scm-team, just saw that issue has been fixed on Friday. I hope it won't take too long. Self-patched plugins in production-environment.....no good!

from scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

@christau Thanks for identifying the source of the problem. maven-scm-team finally released a new maven-scm-provider-gitexe 1.9.5 plugin. I updated the pom.xml here: 63a7401

In my testing, this seems to work. Can you build the plugin and verify that jobs with spaces in their names can now be backed up? I will rebuild the plugin.

@tomaswolf You previously provided this patch 2f59c9d which works around the fact that maven-scm-provider-gitexe had this bug: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-772
How does this fix affect the patch you provided? Is it still needed?

from scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

@rodrigc, I just built a new HPI and i'm able to create and delete jobs with spaces in the name.

from scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

@mterzo thanks for the feedback. Just to confirm, before the latest patch for SCM-772, were you unable to create/delete jobs with spaces in the name?

from scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

Yeah just checked out master and had no problem.

from scm-sync-configuration-plugin.

Hopefully a739a54 should fix the problem with Git
