HTML Publishing archiving at PROJECT level???

[mikemil-2]

We have been using Jenkins for a while and we have an ant task that generates an html report - a single html file.  Lately we started having some build errors that were tracked back to space issues on the hard drive.   As part of the research, we noticed that Jenkins/HTML Publisher logs this message about "archiving at the PROJECT level" and guess what - it is archiving the entire build folder  and EVERYTHING underneath, which is over 400MB.   

(I thought) I have the HTML Publisher configured to point to a this single html file that I want reported on our build page.   Why is EVERYTHING being archived to our .hudson\jobs\TrunkDaily\htmlreports\Validator_Report folder?

The job is Trunk Daily and we have what we call the 'Validator Report' which generates validator.html - and we want only that copied or shown on the build page but don't really need all this 'archiving'.  

I haven't seen any documentation on the publisher other than the one page in the wiki and that doesn't cover any of this.

Ideas or suggestions???

Thanks!

If you want to archive only one html file why do not use the builtin artifact publisher for that?

The configuration only (as far as I'm aware) allows for a directory to
be given so if thats given it should only archive stuff below that
folder.

So I'm guessing that if you put your html file in a folder by itself
you should be able to simply point at that folder.
