On a few of our Jenkins builds, we get a deployment failure. There is no obvious reason as to why. I have compared the Jenkins config.xml from a job that does a successful deployment to a job that fails deployment, have made the settings the same, but with no successful deployment. We can copy and run the java command (/opt/buildjdks/jdk1.8.0_25/bin/java -Xms256M -Xmx1024M -cp /opt/weblogic-deployer/wlfullclient.jar weblogic.Deployer -debug -stage -remote -verbose -upload -name appname -source /opt/jenkins/jobs/appname-build-deploy-dev/modules/com.apps.appname$appname/builds/22/archive/com.apps.appname/appname/1.0.0-SNAPSHOT/appname-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.war -targets devCluster -adminurl t3://server:7003 -userconfigfile /opt/weblogic-deployer/wls_userConfig.properties -userkeyfile /opt/weblogic-deployer/wls_userConfig.key -deploy) Jenkins is running manually on the Jenkins server console and the deployment works successfully every time, but running the build task we get the error below, every time.

Have scoured the internet, have found a few others having the same issue but no resolution posted. One person suggests adding into the java classpath additional jars weblogic, cryptoj.jar, along with wlfullclient.jar. I have tried this with no changes to the build deployment error above.
