How do I investigate cause for jenkins build abort by anonymous
If this is happening while running a Multijob using "Multijob Plugin", you need to configure the jobs not to kill the other jobs when they fail.
Step1
Make sure you have Matrix Authorization Strategy Plugin installed in your jenkins
Step2
Go to your job configuration page, set the job with limited access to only some members(like foo, bar), and remove the build access for anonymous.
We have upgraded to debian 8 which seams to have solved this. I am not sure if this was related to the JDK we were using simply because other problems we were also seeing such as JDK value set to null error. I have noticed on jenkins own bug launchpad similar problems are ignored because of lack of data. and in my case I do not disagree either, there is lack of data on my problem too.
