      I have a slave that I have been unable to get rid of. The instance doesnt exist and any time I try to delete it via the UI I get the following error:

      Exception: Status Code: 400, AWS Service: AmazonEC2, AWS Request ID: 3a682e66-152a-407c-a52a-f3b2d3423ccf, AWS Error Code: InvalidInstanceID.NotFound, AWS Error Message: The instance ID 'i-c81ba6b8' does not exist

      Full Logs: https://gist.github.com/johntdyer/5271754

      I have restarted Jenkins, I have upgraded to the latest Jenkins build ( 1.508 ) which also restarted the server, but this slave just wont go away. Is there some way to remove it manually ?

          Do you see this EC2 instance via the AWS console?

          It could be an AWS issue. Perhaps your instance has been terminated (sometimes when they're stuck, AWS kills them).

          You can remove it by manually

          stop jenkins
          edit the config.xml (the main jenkins xml)
          delete that node from the xml
          save the config.xml
          start up jenkins
          The node will be gone.

          And what kind of plugin are you using exactly for the EC2 auto provisioning.

          I am using the Jenkins EC2 plugin.... Is there another that works better which I should be using instead?

          I also have this problem. The instance no longer exists on ecs2 so jenkins cannot delete it.
