    • Type: Bug

    • Priority: Major
    • Component/s: core
    • Environment:
      Jenkins 1.504 on Windows Vista
      and
      Jenkins 1.497 on SUSE Linux

      I have a job that allows parallel runs which frequently leads to a number of workspaces being creted.

      After running it a few times I have the following file structure:

      jenkins-home/jobs/job1/
      workspace
      workspace@2
      workspace@3
      workspace@4

      If I run "Wipe Out Workspace" it seems as if Jenkins chooses a random directory of the 4 to wipe out (possibly based on which one was used last). So sometimes it will remove the "workspace" directory, and leave the other 3 and sometimes it will remove one of the others (like workspace@2). It never seems to remove all of them though.
