While running Jenkins jobs we are getting below error, we’ve git installed in Jenkins controller and agent

Please provide the error message that appeared after the text in your screenshot. That is the crucial information.

Please place the text of the message in your posting instead of a screenshot of the message. It is much easier for others to reply to subsets of text blocks that to subsets of screenshots. It is much easier for search engines to index text blocks than screenshots of text blocks.

4

Ok, I’ve added the details in posting, please check

5

Command line git is not installed at /usr/bin/git on the agent. Since command line git is not installed, it cannot be run by the Jenkins agent. Install command line git on the agent.

6

Git was already installed on my Jenkins agent, and the issue began yesterday.
Today, I tried disconnecting and reconnecting the agent, which helped resolve the problem.

But, unable to understand the Root cause here

7

Root cause is likely an issue on the agent. The “No such file or directory” message from the Jenkins agent indicates that the Jenkins agent Java process cannot find the file /usr/bin/git. Since it cannot find that file, it cannot run it.

There are many possible reasons that the Jenkins agent Java process cannot find that file. It could have been deleted (hopefully you are not running your agent as a user with elevated permissions, but if you are, then something could have removed that file). Permissions of its parent directory could have been changed so that the Jenkins agent Java process can no longer see the file. File system corruption could have caused the /usr/bin/git file to disappear.

8

What is suspicious is this line in the logs

Running on Jenkins Agent1 in /home/hcluser/ /home/hcluser/ /home/hcluser/workspace/BusinessIT-Builds/mhs-apitokens-lambda-inlinehook

I would have expected

Running on Jenkins Agent1 in /home/hcluser/workspace/BusinessIT-Builds/mhs-apitokens-lambda-inlinehook

The exception could also be thrown when the directory in which to execute git doesn’t exist
