Description

« Hide

After upgrading from Hudson 1.334 to 1.336 (as well as upgrading six plugins), I get

java.io.IOException: Dependency analysis-core (1.0) doesn't exist
at hudson.ClassicPluginStrategy.loadPluginDependencies(ClassicPluginStrategy.java:374)
at hudson.ClassicPluginStrategy.load(ClassicPluginStrategy.java:237)
at hudson.PluginManager$1$3$2$1.run(PluginManager.java:202)

followed by

java.lang.NullPointerException
at hudson.PluginManager$1$3$2$2.run(PluginManager.java:218)

and then all hell breaks loose as no descriptors can be found for anything:

java.lang.AssertionError: class hudson.plugins.xvnc.Xvnc is missing its descriptor
at hudson.model.Hudson.getDescriptorOrDie(Hudson.java:900)
at hudson.tasks.BuildWrapper.getDescriptor(BuildWrapper.java:194)
at hudson.model.Descriptor.toMap(Descriptor.java:595)
at hudson.util.DescribableList.toMap(DescribableList.java:120)
at hudson.model.Project.getBuildWrappers(Project.java:117)

If I go to Updates and manually install analysis-core and restart, then everything is back to normal. But the update manager should have noticed that there was a missing dependency from one of the updates and forced me to install that dependency before I restarted the first time. And a missing dependency for one plugin should not cause all the others to fail to load.

Did you have the analysis-core plugin installed? As of the new versions of the static analysis plugins, you need to also install analysis-core, a new plugin.

Log:
~~HUDSON-4983~~ Change to automatically install plugins when they're listed in the dependencies section (except for maven-plugin) - still needs more testing

Parhaps this is not the right place for my comment, but my problem is related to this issue.

After upgrading plugins like PMD, Findbugs, etc. to versions using analysis core plugin
my version of CI Game plugin stopped working. It was not compatible with these new plugins versions.
It would be good to see any warning about potential problems with other plugins depending on the plugin being upgraded.
