GOCD Pipeline stuck on past about gocd-git-path-material-plugin HOT 6 CLOSED

There are many ways to have the GoCD Agent run with a different Java version to that of the pipelines that are running on it - you can have many JVMs side-by-side on the host (e.g OS packages, or use a Java version manager such as jabba, sdkman, rtx, adsf), or you can dynamically download/install/make available a Java 8 installation when your pipeline starts. I would avoid thinking that the requirements of the builds on your agents to run with Java 8 should block an upgrade. There are many security vulnerabilities in running a GoCD version that old, and it's unsupported.

Anyway, to your actual question, you can try and remove the flyweight folder and refresh the material to achieve that, but that version of the plugin is so old, and GoCD version so old that I'd be guessing as to what will happen.

Thanks for the reply. Now we are going to plan the upgrade and the impact.

However i already try do remove flyweight but it still knows what's the latest revision of the commit.

Are you sure the later commits match the paths in your path expression?

You could try changing the path expression and then changing it back, or something like that. honestly I have little experience with the 1.x plugin version since it uses a very different underlying approach (uses a java git library, rather than the native git executable).

we upgrade to 2.1.1-119
now pipeline give this problem

Did not find 'scm' plugin with id 'git-path'. Looks like plugin is missing

from gocd-git-path-material-plugin.

You said you were running java 8 on your server and agents? As explicitly documented, v2.1 won't work with that.

Anyway, look at the logs and do some debugging please. I can't help on such limited information describing a problem.

Closing for now, as there's not enough information to help further here.
