email-ext plugin: 2.40.5
Jenkins: 1.609.2
Workflow: 1.8
I have a freestyle job that fails to run the post-build extended email step when it is triggered by a workflow buildJob construct.
The error message:
ERROR: Could not send email as a part of the post-build publishers. java.lang.ClassCastException: org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.job.WorkflowJob cannot be cast to hudson.model.AbstractProject at hudson.plugins.emailext.plugins.recipients.UpstreamComitterRecipientProvider.addRecipients(UpstreamComitterRecipientProvider.java:40) at hudson.plugins.emailext.ExtendedEmailPublisher.createMail(ExtendedEmailPublisher.java:578) at hudson.plugins.emailext.ExtendedEmailPublisher.sendMail(ExtendedEmailPublisher.java:306) at hudson.plugins.emailext.ExtendedEmailPublisher._perform(ExtendedEmailPublisher.java:297) at hudson.plugins.emailext.ExtendedEmailPublisher.perform(ExtendedEmailPublisher.java:244) at hudson.tasks.BuildStepMonitor$1.perform(BuildStepMonitor.java:20) at hudson.model.AbstractBuild$AbstractBuildExecution.perform(AbstractBuild.java:761) at hudson.model.AbstractBuild$AbstractBuildExecution.performAllBuildSteps(AbstractBuild.java:721) at hudson.model.Build$BuildExecution.cleanUp(Build.java:193) at hudson.model.Run.execute(Run.java:1788) at hudson.model.FreeStyleBuild.run(FreeStyleBuild.java:43) at hudson.model.ResourceController.execute(ResourceController.java:98) at hudson.model.Executor.run(Executor.java:374)
[JENKINS-29970] email-ext step fails in freestyle project triggered by workflow plugin buildJob
Fixing this issue should be a quite simple patch. Just do not make this blind cast; skip whatever bit of functionality requires AbstractProject and move on.
Yes, this specific issue would be easy to fix, but I'm sure there are other cases that would be nice to fix at the same time.

Add check for non-AbstractBuild stuff
If you would like, you can try the hpi from here https://jenkins.ci.cloudbees.com/job/plugins/job/email-ext-plugin/lastBuild/org.jenkins-ci.plugins$email-ext/artifact/org.jenkins-ci.plugins/email-ext/2.41-SNAPSHOT/email-ext-2.41-SNAPSHOT.hpi to see if it fixes the issue for you.
There is a known incompatibility with email-ext and workflow. It's not on my near term radar to fix as its a very invasive change. Work around is to not use the upstream comitters. Other recipient providers may also have issues.
