Throttle Concurrent Builds plugin doesn't appear to work

    • Jenkins 1.509.2, Throttle Concurrent Builds 1.8

      I just installed this today to try and avoid some issues I have with locks & latches. I have some multi-configuration jobs. I want to allow multiple jobs to run at the same time, but only 1 job of a given category to run per node. This sounds exactly like what the plugin was written for. So I went into my configuration and created a category and set Maximum Total Concurrent Builds to 0 and Maximum Concurrent Builds Per Node to 1. I then went to all of my jobs and assigned them to this category and checked the radio button for throttle as part of one or more categories.

      I then manually started two jobs from the same category to see if one waited for the other. It didn't work. Both jobs started on the same node. I also tried settings Maximum Concurrent Builds Per Node in the job itself to 1 and that didn't help either.

      What am I missing about this configuration?

          I can confirm that builds were successful for us until early this week where we upgraded to Jenkins.

          Maybe 20211 is the same problem.

          This is still a problem in 1.538!

          I also had it working just fine until the latest jenkins update, and now with Throttle 1.8 and Jenkins 1.538 it seems like the plugin just doesn't work at all.

          It also seems broken with Throttle 1.7.2 and 1.7.1 on Jenkins 1.538.

          Not broken on 1.530.

          Is this plugin still maintained or shall we look for something new? This bug was reported over a month ago and unfortunately nothing has happened yet. The plugin works find with Jenkins version 1.535 and is broken with all versions starting from 1.536. So I assume something in the api has changed which causes this plugin to fail...

          Same here - it seems to have broken after updating from Jenkins 1.533 to 1.539. I tried updating to 1.540 to see if that fixes it but it is still broken.

          at least I'm not the only one
