"Copy files back to master node" doesn't copy to workspace

XMLWordPrintable

      I've a matrix job that uses the "Copy To Slave" plugin to "Copy files back to master node" as a post-build action. I then use the PostBuildScript plugin to run on the master node and process these files.

      However, even though Copy-to-Slave succeeds, the files aren't in the master workspace. Looking at the build output on the slaves shows:

      [copy-to-slave] Copying 'build/**/*', excluding nothing, from 'file:/home/foobar/jenkins/workspace/MyJob/label/foobar-ci-linux/' on 'hudson.slaves.DumbSlave@564c7adb' to 'file:/Users/foobar/.jenkins/jobs/MyJob/configurations/axis-label/foobar-ci-linux/workspace/' on the master.
      

      The path

      /Users/foobar/.jenkins/jobs/MyJob/configurations/axis-label/foobar-ci-linux/workspace/
      

      is not the workspace. The workspace is actually here:

      /Users/foobar/.jenkins/.jenkins/workspace/MyJob/
      

      Why does Copy-To-Slave copy the files to this weird path?
