Xvfb not terminated when a Maven module rebuild fails inside a plugin

XMLWordPrintable

      When rebuilding a single module of a multi-module project, I have an environment script which happens to fail (because $WORKSPACE is different from a normal top-level build, but any failure should do). When this environment script fails, the job naturally fails too, but the Xvfb plugin fails to terminate the Xvfb process it started, leading to problems in subsequent builds.

      I'm having trouble coming up with an easy minimal reproducer, because I think it only happens when a multi-module build is involved. I suspect the failure has to happen in a Jenkins plugin (like Environment Script) too: a normal build failure is not enough.

      This is the log from the rebuild which failed:
