Any Idea??
Hello @asishs and welcome to this community 
What is the list of installed plugins on your controller?
To get the list, you can go to http://<yourcontroller>/script and enter this script in the textbox and then click Run.
Jenkins.instance.pluginManager.plugins.each{
plugin ->
println ("${plugin.getDisplayName()} (${plugin.getShortName()}): ${plugin.getVersion()}")
}

Jenkins is internally cleaning up unused workspaces, I think it cleans them when they haven’t been used for 30 days.
This feature can be disabled.
See https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jenkinsci/jenkins/master/core/src/main/java/hudson/model/WorkspaceCleanupThread.java
Hi @poddingue ,
Thank you, I run Jenkins under tomcat, so where do I configure
hudson.model.WorkspaceCleanupThread.disabled=true
You probably have a file
<tomcat_home>/bin/setenv.sh
there you can add the line
export JAVA_OPTS=“$JAVA_OPTS -D=hudson.model.WorkspaceCleanupThread.disabled=true”
You can also set this via an init.groovy script in your Jenkins home, modifying the corresponding system property,
or via script console in an already running Jenkins
Hi,
We are facing the same issue. How can we verify this after applying this through http://jenkins/script
