Comment 2 Miheer Salunke 2017-11-06 05:17:31 UTC
Description of problem:

According to this document 

https://docs.openshift.org/latest/dev_guide/builds/build_strategies.html#jenkinsfile

I should be able to set parameters in the pipeline build config like this 
jenkinsPipelineStrategy:
...
  env:
    - name: "FOO"
      value: "BAR"

When ever I do this, I am just seeing it get skipped.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@drlosm02 ~]# openshift version
openshift v3.5.5.31
kubernetes v1.5.2+43a9be4
etcd 3.1.0

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Comment 3 Juan Vallejo 2017-11-06 16:34:09 UTC
Hi Miheer,

I am able to set an env var through `oc edit` using a recent version of the client [1]. I was able to reproduce the error received when setting an env var through `oc set env bc/...` however. I will look into this further.

In the meantime, would you mind providing the client version used? (oc version / openshift cli version).

Thanks

Comment 4 Juan Vallejo 2017-11-06 16:35:07 UTC
Providing client information for the above comment:

1.
```
$ oc version

oc v3.7.0-rc.0+c21a470-128-dirty
kubernetes v1.7.6+a08f5eeb62
features: Basic-Auth

Server https://127.0.0.1:8443
openshift v3.7.0-rc.0+b65ef46-105
kubernetes v1.7.6+a08f5eeb62
```

Comment 5 Juan Vallejo 2017-11-06 17:09:51 UTC
@bparees I am able to use `oc edit` to add an environment variable to a build-config with the `JenkinsPipeline` strategy in a 3.6 and 3.7 cluster. 

Per comment 0, it appears that a 3.5 server is being used. I was wondering if we just did not support env vars on JenkinsPipeline build-configs back then, and if we should just recommend using a newer version of the cluster for this?

Comment 6 Ben Parees 2017-11-06 17:14:50 UTC
It looks like we did not support those in 3.5:
https://github.com/openshift/origin/blob/release-1.5/pkg/build/api/types.go#L644-L652

however if oc set env is not working with 3.6/3.7, that still sounds like a problem.

Comment 7 Juan Vallejo 2017-11-06 19:34:20 UTC
Thanks, Origin PR to fix `oc set env` on 3.7:
https://github.com/openshift/origin/pull/17203

Will open PR against 3.6 branch as well.

Comment 8 Juan Vallejo 2017-11-06 22:35:46 UTC
This patch will not be backported to 3.6 due to its lack of severity. See [1].

Comment 9 XiuJuan Wang 2017-11-08 09:16:33 UTC
