No such file: ‘pom.xml’ error in jenkins

I have a repository in Bitbucket. In that repository i have project called Demo Which is a maven project. I am trying to deploy Demo with Jenkins.

Steps I am following.

  1. Created a job(Item) in Jenkins.

  2. Configure(This is the configuration for the individual jobs).

    Project name:Demo.

    Description:bla bla bla..

    Source Code Management -> Git -> Repository URL :[email protected]:UserName/ProjectName.git.

    ->Credentials: provided my credential.

    Build-> Root POM : pom.xml.

Everything looks fine but pom.xml throwing error saying :

No such file: ‘pom.xml’

Since this is the maven project it is looking for pom.xml, and I am confuse while providing the path. since Jenkins is pooling source from Bitbucket, which have pom.xml under Demo project.

But I do not know which path to provide here.

Solution

  • You have to mention the path of your application's pom.xml in relation to jenkins work space.

    Once Jenkins build starts it will download the source code to .jenkins\jobs\yourjobname\workspace and builds it there, you can check this location if you are not sure of the pom path.

    E.g For an application Test .jenkins\jobs\jenkinsJobName\workspace\Test\pom.xml

    The root pom field should be Test\pom.xml
