404 on view configSubmit if there are more than one missing views

[strayer]

Hi,

not sure what's happening here, but I constantly get this exception:

getting project names from http://localhost:8080/api/json
getting views - nestedWithinView:ourrepo-branches at path: view/ourrepo-branches/api/json
Missing views: [ourrepo-force-https, ourrepo-jenkins, ourrepo-master, ourrepo-new-data-model, ourrepo-save-reports, ourrepo-scrape-kdp-stats, ourrepo-sentry]
creating view - viewName:ourrepo-force-https, nestedView:ourrepo-branches
Trying to find crumb: http://localhost:8080/crumbIssuer/api/json
Couldn't find crumbIssuer for jenkins. Just moving on it may not be needed.
configuring view ourrepo-force-https
creating view - viewName:ourrepo-jenkins, nestedView:ourrepo-branches
configuring view ourrepo-jenkins
creating view - viewName:ourrepo-master, nestedView:ourrepo-branches
configuring view ourrepo-master
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Exception: Unexpected failure on http://localhost:8080/view/ourrepo-branches/view/ourrepo-master/configSubmit: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found 404

This only happens when the job needs to create more than one view.

When I run the job several times again until all the views are created it runs like it should - maybe our server is just not fast enough to create the view so configuring fails? No idea... Jenkins is pretty fast, so I don't think this is the problem...

Jenkins version: 1.492

After some more fiddling it seems this is rather random... I deleted all the views in the nested view, ran the sync job again and it worked. After that I deleted them AGAIN and it failed like this at the last view it had to create.

Very. Confusing.

If someone is still watching this, I may have fixed this here: #49

[strayer]

We don't use Jenkins anymore, so I won't be able to comment on this :(

[oded-simplee]

No worries, just like I found this issue when I was looking for a solution, others will probably find it too.

[MisterXY]

I got the same problem. Is there any solution?

You can use my fork, didn't have any problems since using it

[jamesdh]

If you are frequently getting random 404's, I think that is indicative of other issues with your Jenkins/Tomcat setup. Retrying repeatedly is more of a hack than a solution. I'd rather find out what the real problem is.

We've seen very similar (identical?) issues when working with Jenkins instances that were proxied by Apache/Nginx. I'd have to really jog my memory but I'll try and dig up what that was exactly.

Couldn't find crumbIssuer for jenkins

Make sure to enable CSRF Protection by going to Global Security and selecting Prevent Cross Site Request Forgery exploits. This should enable the proper access to /crumbIssuer/api/json address, otherwise it won't exist.
