Perforce plugin and Globa Password from EnvInject ?

Richard Otter-2
The newer versions of the plugin EnvInject can create a GlobalPassword.
Since I have the same Perforce password entered separately in about 100 jobs, it would be nice
to use this feature.
Any plans to support it in the Perforce plugin?

Rob Petti-2
If it doesn't work already (it should) then you can use the Mask Passwords plugin to set up a global password instead.

Confirmed- Both EnvInject and MaskPassword global passwords work as advertised in Perforce plugin.
NOTE: Don't forget to mark the checkbox in the job config to allow use of the defined global passwords in that job!

Re: Perforce plugin and Globa Password from EnvInject ?

Well- almost confirmed....

When I set an EnvInject global password for my P4 password, I can use it in the perforce password entry field to successfully run jobs. That’s what I originally confirmed.

However, I have now seen two new problems-

 

·         The job cannot use the global password to poll the depot for changes. I get an invalid password message in the log (see below)

·         The job configuration UI shows messages that indicate variable substitution is not performed.

The first is a showstopper for CI jobs.

The second I can live with, but I’d suggest that the warning include a disclaimer that says substitution is not done in the configuration screen.

 

 

Similarly, when I tried to use a variable in the perforce mapping, the same kinds of problems were apparent:

Polling does not work (see log entry below)

The job configuration UI shows messages that indicate variable substitution was not performed.

Re: Perforce plugin and Globa Password from EnvInject ?

Rob Petti-2
Both validation and polling do not get full environments, which is why
they aren't being replaced. This means you can't use EnvInject for
that. I've been struggling with finding ways of fixing it, but as near
as I can tell, most plugins only support build parameters such as
those provided globally by jenkins or the masked passwords plugin.

Re: Perforce plugin and Globa Password from EnvInject ?

Richard Otter-2
Thanks very much for your work on the p4 plugin! It has helped thousdansds of individuals,
 
OK. It's a work in progress.  It's just that I spent several hours figuring out the polling and validation limitations
 
This may also be related to the use of the EnvInject global password.
This is in a non-polling job, so I have variable substituion for the password and in th emapping.
 
Take a look at this job log output:

Re: Perforce plugin and Globa Password from EnvInject ?

Rob Petti-2

I have never seen that before. I'll take a look. It also seems like it failed to get the change log description for 74865, which is why it's attempting to log in again. Is there anything about that change that would cause that command to output something non-standard?

as I can tell, most plugins only support build parameters such as
those provided globally by jenkins or the masked passwords plugin.

Re: Perforce plugin and Globa Password from EnvInject ?

Richard Otter-2

I ran that describe command from a cmd shell without problem.

Nothing obviously different from any other CL description. I redirected it to a file and saw nothing but ASCII.

I had a job mapped to a different folder that also failed the same way, and it did not have CL 74865 in it change history.

 

Problem overcome-

Since I posted that problem, all of the jobs I recently changed to use the global password started to fail with the same message. (Of course, these were the most important...).

I tried everything I could to fix it. I finally looked at the "advanced" P4 plugin options.

One or more of these changes fixed the problem-

-  set a limit to 1000 for "Changelist file limit"

-  set "First change list to track" to be a number greater than the last real CL.

Perhaps the root cause was an out of memory exception wrongly interpreted as a security issue?

Doubtful. I think you've just bypassed the issue by preventing changeset descriptions from being retrieved at all. I'll take a look at the double '-P' problem, and in the meantime let me know if the changeset problem resurfaces.

Out of curiosity, are you running a matrix build by chance?
