    • Jenkins Version: 1.609.1
      Plugin Version: 1.5.1 (previously installed version was 1.3)

      The environment variables of the host system aren't passed to the docker container anymore. This behaviour has changed since the last updates of the plugin, because it worked in a previous version.

      Example output with plugin version 1.3:

      The same job execution with plugin version 1.5.1:

      As you can see, the environment parameters aren't set within the docker container anymore. This influences jobs that rely on specific environment settings as well as the auto installation mechanism of jenkins that uses environment variables in order to set the path of the specified tool versions (for example JAVA_HOME).
