jenkins2 branch-indexing: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: byteString == null

Currently branch-indexing is broken for me - this happens for old-jobs and also when trying to create new jobs. It was working with the same version of jenkins already ( 2.0-beta1 ) - not sure what broke it - also the internet and time on this server is fine ( thought it might be this as it originates in a certificate problem ):

Anyone also experienced this and maybe has a workaround? I filed it as a bug here: https://github.com/kohsuke/github-api/issues/265 - but would still be interested in a workaround as this blocks me from using jenkins right now

Solution

  • the problem was a corrupted cache 

    rm -rf org.jenkinsci.plugins.github.GitHubPlugin.cache/

    solved the problem for me
