Jenkins ver. 1.648
java version 1.7.0_95
Subversion Plug-in: 2.4.5
Occasionally SVN checkout started to fail. An exception is thrown during working copy revert action:
Reverting /path/to/workspace to depth infinity with ignoreExternals: false FATAL: null java.lang.StackOverflowError at java.io.UnixFileSystem.canonicalize0(Native Method) at java.io.UnixFileSystem.canonicalize(UnixFileSystem.java:172) at java.io.File.getCanonicalPath(File.java:618) at java.io.File.getCanonicalFile(File.java:643) at org.tmatesoft.sqljet.core.internal.fs.SqlJetFileSystem.open(SqlJetFileSystem.java:140) at org.tmatesoft.sqljet.core.internal.pager.SqlJetPager.openJournal(SqlJetPager.java:3003) at org.tmatesoft.sqljet.core.internal.pager.SqlJetPager.begin(SqlJetPager.java:2782) at org.tmatesoft.sqljet.core.internal.btree.SqlJetBtree.beginTrans(SqlJetBtree.java:931) at org.tmatesoft.sqljet.core.table.engine.SqlJetEngine.doBeginTransaction(SqlJetEngine.java:561) at org.tmatesoft.sqljet.core.table.engine.SqlJetEngine.access$100(SqlJetEngine.java:55) at org.tmatesoft.sqljet.core.table.engine.SqlJetEngine$9.runSynchronized(SqlJetEngine.java:475) at org.tmatesoft.sqljet.core.table.engine.SqlJetEngine.runSynchronized(SqlJetEngine.java:217) at org.tmatesoft.sqljet.core.table.engine.SqlJetEngine.beginTransaction(SqlJetEngine.java:471) at org.tmatesoft.svn.core.internal.db.SVNSqlJetDb.beginTransaction(SVNSqlJetDb.java:204) at org.tmatesoft.svn.core.internal.wc17.db.SvnWcDbRevert.readRevertInfo(SvnWcDbRevert.java:280) at org.tmatesoft.svn.core.internal.wc2.ng.SvnNgRevert.restore(SvnNgRevert.java:194) at org.tmatesoft.svn.core.internal.wc2.ng.SvnNgRevert.restore(SvnNgRevert.java:352) at org.tmatesoft.svn.core.internal.wc2.ng.SvnNgRevert.restore(SvnNgRevert.java:352) at org.tmatesoft.svn.core.internal.wc2.ng.SvnNgRevert.restore(SvnNgRevert.java:352) at org.tmatesoft.svn.core.internal.wc2.ng.SvnNgRevert.restore(SvnNgRevert.java:352)
This start to happen occasionally on some jobs after upgrading Jenkins to version 1.648 (from 1.536).
In this upgrade we move SVN plugin to version 2.5.7 with subversion 1.8 format but svn credentials on externals was not recognized, so that jenkins was not able to trigger correctly the job via scm polling or to analyse the change set.
For this reason, plugin has been reverted to 2.4.5 and subversion 1.7.
This seems to be related by Check-out Strategy being set to Use 'svn update' as much as possible, with 'svn revert' before update in project settings (which causes SVN revert to run as a result).
By changing the Check-out startegy with one that not perform a revert action works fine.
This issue is similar to https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-32515 but in our case no "org.tmatesoft.svn.core.SVNException" is thrown.
We can not understand what could be the problem because not systematically present.
But each time that happen the workspace is dirty and we need to clean it up before restarting the job.
Any advice to solve the problem is welcome.
