I had multiple Jenkins jobs running happily for some time using github app for authentication but today they all stopped working. I can go to each job and when I select 'validate', the github app credentials are validated fine. I created a dummy job to reproduce the error. The job finds Jenkinsfile I created but then return the error as below:

I redeployed Jenkins and the issue disappeared, however next day it came back. I wonder if this is because I added few script permissions for one of the groovy jobs. Could anyone please point me to a right direction why I am getting this error when validation for github app is passing?
