Jenkins tricks

Kill stacked job

Sometimes Jenkins job could stack without response, and can't be killed from the UI. Go to Manage Jenkins -> Script Console and paste there one of these code-blocks. Change job name and build number to relevant ones and run it.

Jenkins.instance.getItemByFullName("CI/rc-preprod")
                .getBuildByNumber(895)
                .finish(
                    hudson.model.Result.ABORTED,
                    new java.io.IOException("Aborting build")
                );

or

def jobname = "CI/rc-preprod"
def buildnum = 895
def job = Jenkins.instance.getItemByFullName(jobname)
 for (build in job.builds) {
     if (buildnum == build.getNumber().toInteger()){
       if (build.isBuilding()){
         build.doStop();
         build.doKill();
       }
     }
}
