Hello, We are trying to run Jenkins with IS -Jenkins blueocean@sha256:9d6ebd661a2fdb0b9ab465c7ebf86141487845ca69893fa4953a33cca505414bq that uses Jenkins 2.319.3. The pod is not running and showing an Error that “failed to load plugin” and earlier when using the older IS name: jenkins-blueocean@sha256:42aa45dea5da0d182618099cf4609c582fab773e0b354fe9100aec2cd1280646 that runs on Jenkins 2.319.2 was successfully deployed . Please suggest a best way to run Jenkins pods on Openshift 4 with 2.319.3 Jenkins . ---

By default jenkins will copy without overwriting /usr/share/jenkins/ref/plugins/ to $JENKINS\_HOME/plugins/ So you’ll need to delete the old plugin version to get the new version. I would recommend deleting $JENKINS\_HOME/plugins/ as a pre start hook, and let it copy all the plugins from ref every startup. That way you always have the right plugins for the image. If you have plugins not in the image, i recommend building your own image with all your requirements baked in - [docker-jenkins/Dockerfile at b7f32ca9dec8a5279dd28834febbbf9cb3a3e996 · halkeye-docker/docker-jenkins · GitHub](https://github.com/halkeye-docker/docker-jenkins/blob/b7f32ca9dec8a5279dd28834febbbf9cb3a3e996/Dockerfile) If you don’t want to do the recommendations, then either use the update manager or the cli to update plugins manually. ---

I told you how to fix it. Delete your currently installed plugins so the docker image copies the new versions over (essentially `cp -n /usr/share/jenkins/ref/plugins/ $JENKINS_HOME/plugins`) or copy over the plugins by hand `cp -f /usr/share/jenkins/ref/plugins/ $JENKINS_HOME/plugins`) or use the update center cli tool to update plugins. ---

Hello @halkeye Thank you for your response and effort. But I dont know if this helps us - we use a prebuilt image from redhat, that was tested by redhat, use their official update mechanism to install some additional plugins from the official repo (including dependency resolution!) It contains only the image from redhat (that can start) and the plugins added/updated by redhats official plugin mechanism via s2i build in the jenkins-blueocean-plugins buildconfig using the plugins.txt file. It does not contain any changes done by our dockerfile, only what redhat or the official plugin repo of jenkins provide! Regards ---

Permission denied leads me to believe that the user you are running jenkins as can’t write to the necessary locations. ---

> [@hash88](#): > > It contains only the image from redhat (that can start) I would reach out to redhat. We as an open source community don’t support vendor specific builds.

I was trying to find out of the official image uses root, but i havn’t been able to find out for certain. > [@hash88](#): > > Overriding plugins stored in /var/lib/jenkins/plugins Seems like it should work. Btw, 319 is over 6 months old now. There has been 2 more stable releases since then. ---

Yes i will also do that , if we do not able to find a solution. I understand your Point as this is Vendor Specific image, so makes sense to reach out Redhat Support. Okay i will check for stable release also, so this for Test Server, for Prod we can use the Stable then . Thank you for ur time , Regards
