Jenkins ssh into slave without executing .bashrc or .bash_profile as expected

[hhuynh]

Does anyone know what might be wrong when Jenkins won't run .bashrc
or .bash_profile after it ssh into a slave (Suse10 box)?

I have other redhat slaves configuring the same way and the .bashrc is
executed and printed out on Jenkins log but not this Suse10 box.

I ran into a similar situation involving bash and ssh (but not
Jenkins). Neither .bash_profile nor .bashrc ran when I used
the -t option on ssh to connect to a server as a user whose
default shell was bash. Here's what I learned, and my
workaround:

Maybe your problem is similar?

Thanks Fred but that workaround doesn't help me with Jenkins setup.

There's no fields in Jenkins slave configurations to let you run any
command. Just hostname, username and password. Jenkins handles the ssh
completely from there.

Most likely a user error. Are you certain the $SHELL is bash on the
SuSE10 box? Is /etc/profile dramatically different?

User error further confirmed that it is not likely to be a Jenkins
issue because you confirm it is working on other Linux slaves.

With high probability this is not a problem with Jenkins but in your slave host.

You should study the bash man page paying attention to which files bash executes for non-login, non-interactive shells. Then check those files and find why they don't work the way you expect them to.

IMHO bash does not execute .bashrc for non-interactive non-login shells. If it does on your other slaves, then they have something special in their bash.

By the way, are you sure the login shell is bash?
