      I am able to import a job if it is located at the root of jenkins 

      src:   (/opt/jenkins/workspace/job)

      But if I try to import a job located in a folder             

      src:   (/opt/jenkins/workspace/directory/job)

      I get the following error:

      Failure: ‘/’ is an unsafe character

       

      There are no / s in the name of the directory or file

      I have attached the relevant Jenkins.log output

          Same here.

          My directory has / in the name because it is not in the jenkins root.

          The request passes it like:
          "com/job/deployment/job/my-app/": false,

          We also see this issue when trying import job, not from the root directory

          e.g.

          If we choose from the list jobs:

          dir-1/ dir-2/job_name https://jenkins/job/dir_1/job/dir_2/job/job_name/]

          and click on import - we have the following issue:

          Remote Jenkins Job Import Status
          Name Status
          job_name FAILED - ‘/’ is an unsafe character

          Jenkins 2.249.3

          Temp Work Around:

          Move your job to the Root of Jenkins  /opt/jenkins/workspace

          Then I've been able to import it to another instance

          I think I have found the cause of the issue; https://github.com/jenkinsci/jenkins/commit/f176292eb4a41c007a97b86ff767ccb36707c1e6 It added an additional check to the name. Should be fixed here: https://github.com/jenkinsci/job-import-plugin/blob/2578ed330d35328f9bdeca219f7b98beefe68a71/src/main/java/org/jenkins/ci/plugins/jobimport/JobImportAction.java#L222

          avdkolk,

           

          Will this be released soon as a Plugin update or is there another way to update my plugin?

           

          Thanks,

           

          Todd
