RuntimeException Error if you attempt to save a parameterized build with no parameters

    • Icon: Bug Bug
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Icon: Minor Minor
    • core
    • Linux

      1. Edit a job's configuration
      2. Select the 'This build is parameterized' checkbox
      3. Save the configuration

      You get a RuntimeException and stack trace. A more user-friendly error would be preferable. It took me a few minutes to realize my mistake. Full stack trace:

          This is a different issue, so far as I can tell - https://github.com/jenkinsci/jenkins/commit/9b18d9bd5d58cc1c735303ac05eb2b653dffe44a seems to be what's triggering this.

          So I think this is no longer an issue after JENKINS-33201 (fixed in 2.14, I believe) - there's still an error, but at least it's an explained one that covers this scenario as well as the one JENKINS-33201 is specifically targeting. Verifying now.

          Nope, I'm wrong, it needs a fix here to get to far enough. Joy.

          New PR up at https://github.com/jenkinsci/jenkins/pull/2723 since the previous one was dealing with a scenario that actually no longer exists.

          [FIXED JENKINS-37590] Return a null property if no parameters

          At least part of the impetus for this issue was dealt with a while
          back by a revert of PR #2444, but this gives us a better solution
          anyway by guaranteeing we have a null property rather than one without
          parameters.
