Jenkins slave job fails after successful job

Question

I have 2 jenkins servers because my 2 builds have some incompatible system requirements.

I setup a new node for one of the servers and migrated the jobs from the other server and set them up to run on the node.

The node runs the job just fine and even archives the artifacts (they are linked from the job) but the job throws and exception and gets marked as a failure.

** Below is the output from the jobs **

Completed build, now archiving  <-- I print this out at the end of my last build step

Answer 1

Thanks Lovato!

After I updated all the plugins and jenkins things worked just fine.

Answer 2

We got this error: FATAL: java.io.IOException: Remote call on pm_jenprodslave_1 failed. We found the slave server was unresponsive and had to reboot it. Once it came back the build works again.
