Error while executing candidate task.

Hi

I am facing an issue now while executing the 'candidate' task with a Jenkins pipline. The issue is:

The jenkins job is running on a master node. While executing the job with the candidate task, I first have to give the access using chmod command to gradle wrapper script file('/gradlew') which resides in the root folder of project. I believe the plugin is considering this as a change to a file and asks it to be committed to execute candidate task.

The steps in my build script are:
stage('Build') {
steps {
script {
sh 'chmod +x gradlew'
sh './gradlew clean build candidate -x test'
}
}
}

The error thrown by plugin is:

• What went wrong:
  An exception occurred applying plugin request [id: 'nebula.release', version: '13.0.0']

Failed to apply plugin 'nebula.release'.
> Final and candidate builds require all changes to be committed into Git.
Found unstaged changes:
[M] gradlew

Is there any way around it?.

You can do chmod +x gradlew and commit/push the change into the repository. That way you don't need to do it as part of your build every time and you will also solve the error.

Hi @chali

I already tried it, but then it gives the permission denied error:

+ ./gradlew clean build candidate -x test
/workspace/service@tmp/durable-f7fdd223/script.sh: line 1: ./gradlew: Permission denied
