This also appears to be a known issue:
https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-9263
Should I open a jira defect for this? Which project? I hope it isn’t the downstream build view plugin project, because that, based on the comments on the
plugin page, is not actively maintained.
It looks like if you use the Parameterized Trigger Plugin’s ability to trigger builds on other projects and you “Block until the triggered projects finish their
builds” then the triggered builds will not show up in the Downstream Build View plugin.
Steps to Reproduce:
Install the Downstream Build View plugin and the Parameterized Trigger plugin
Create a new job, jobA, and under Build select Trigger/call builds on other projects
Under Projects to build enter jobB (I know it doesn’t exist yet but we are about to create it)
Create a new job, jobB, and don’t configure it further
Kick off a build of jobA and then click that build and click the Downstream build view link and notice jobB build number 1 is shown
Go back to jobA and click the checkbox under the Build section “Block until the triggered projects finish their builds”, then click save
Kick off a build of jobA and then click that build and click the Downstream build view link and notice jobB build number 2 is not shown and instead it says
jobB is NOT_BUILT
Versions:
Jenkins – 1.470
Downstream build view – 1.7
Jenkins Parameterized Trigger plugin – 2.15
Plugins installed but Jenkins not restarted since apparently you can now install plugins without restarting
Locked
