incompatability between FormSubmission and HTMLUnit post Jenkins 2.289

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Several plugins have failing tests when using new versions of core (e.g. `mvn test -Djenkins.version=2.289`) and they seem to follow a simiular pattern

      calling HTMLUnit's `click` to submit a form is resulting in Jenkins erroring with something like

        15.170 [id=94]        WARNING o.e.j.s.h.ContextHandler$Context#log: Error while serving http://localhost:64686/jenkins/job/testFolder/support/generateAndDownload
      net.sf.json.JSONException: A JSONObject text must begin with '{' at character 1 of init
              at net.sf.json.util.JSONTokener.syntaxError(JSONTokener.java:499)
              at net.sf.json.JSONObject._fromJSONTokener(JSONObject.java:919)
      ...
      

      which subsequently causes the test to fail.

      On the surface this appears to be an incompatability between HTMLUnit and Jenkins bumping to the latest HTMLUnit seemed to make no difference.

            This should be the issue that is breaking pipeline-input and pipeline-model-definition as well.

            I believe the change also caused the save of a matrix job to never return. I'm able to save the specific matrix project in Jenkins 2.288 but not in 2.289 through 2.293.

            When I revert the non-trusted submit event change, then I am able to save it with 2.289-SNAPSHOT.

            The change in PR-5479 from tom_gl in a Jenkins 2.294 snapshot build did not resolve the issue I saw when saving a matrix job. See https://github.com/jenkinsci/jenkins/pull/5405#issuecomment-842713911 for details

            PR-5479, fixing failing HtmlUnit tests as well as some jobs configuration not saving, is merged. Should be released in 2.296 next week.

            Hopefully it can then be included in LTS 2.289.2 (with a revert of the revert of JENKINS-53462 / PR-5405).
