      The parameter JOB_NAME is not set to the project name. Instead it is set to some strange autogenerated string, like jk1-J5537.
      We have quite some plugins loaded in our Jenkins instance. For example we use the EnvInject plugin, that could manipulate that parameter I guess, but I haven't managed to configure it to not change JOB_NAME.

      The BUILD_ID parameter and all others containing the project name are set correctly:
      BUILD_NUMBER=12
      BUILD_TAG=jenkins-environment_variable_test-12
      JOB_NAME=jk1-J5537
      WORKSPACE=/proj/bscautodata/jenkins/ci_prototype/workspace-sge/workspace/environment_variable_test

      Is there a way to see what values those properties have before any plugins, expecially the EnvInject plugin, manipulate them?

      BR,
      Emil

          According to the EnvInject source code, it does not modify the JOB NAME variable.
          Does your WORKSPACE variable value is correct?
          I suggest you should try to isolate the problem.

          Yes, the WORKSPACE variable contains the correct JOB_NAME.

          I see "sge" in your path. Note that Sun Grid Engine also defines variable JOB_NAME, which overwrites the Jenkins JOB_NAME value.

          I work around this by defining.

          export JENKINS_JOB_NAME="$JOB_NAME"

          before qsub.

          See my Jenkins SGE plugin for more information.
