We've been running Jenkins 1.451 and 1.454 on Windows XP against a CVS repository for a few weeks now, without any problems. The CVS plugin (v1.6) was using the local cvsnt install.
We've since upgraded the CVS plugin to version 2.1 this morning and since then, CVS changes are not detected. The CVS polling log is triggered properly, tons of "cvs rlog" instructions are sent but at the end "No changes" is displayed.
Am I missing some configuration option somewhere?
Thanks.
Update 1: Looking into the entries file, I'm seeing incorrect times for recently updated files, the entry being 4 hours later than the actual change. Could this be related? I'm in the Eastern Time Zone (Montreal) with Daylight Saving Time in effect. The last cvs checkout command looked like this:
cvs checkout -P -r d-chg00014229_op_brc_preimp-op-2012-02-27 -D 23 Mar 2012 11:56:16 EDT -d portailInt portailInt
Update 2: The 4 hour difference corresponds to GMT-adjusted time, so it looks like there's a mixup in time zones somewhere. Using CVS plugin 1.6 the cvs polling command looked like this (executed at 5:26:21 PM EDT):
cvs -q -z3 -n update -PdC -r d-chg00014229_op_brc_preimp-op-2012-02-27 -D "Thursday, March 22, 2012 9:26:21 PM UTC"
Is it possible that the CVS server isn't properly interpreting the -D argument, either the parsing part or the time zone adjustment part?
Update 3: Behaviour is the same with CVS plugin 2.2
Update 4: Manual calls to "cvs rlog" do not return anything, while similar calls to "cvs log" return revision information for all module files.
cvs rlog -d"01 Mar 2012 09:26:21 -0400<27 Mar 2012 12:00:00 -0400" -S -rd-chg00014229_op_brc_preimp-op-2012-02-27 portailInt
cvs rlog: Logging portailInt
cvs log -d"01 Mar 2012 09:00:00 -0400<27 Mar 2012 12:00:00 -0400"
