Question

I have a problem with jenkins. It reports that the build of my symfony2 project ist successful, but directly after that it crashes with

ERROR: Publisher hudson.plugins.violations.ViolationsPublisher aborted due to exception
java.io.EOFException: input contained no data

I have no clue why and I don't find any helpfull on the net for this error. It apperead out of the blue. yesterday the build was done correctly.

here is my log:

 jslint:

As I see, the problem comes at a post-build action! Maybe, you don't have any data in the input file for JDepend, as I see from the error log. You must see if you give the correct path to the file and also, you must be sure that the file have some content... maybe the path is correct but the file is empty...
