[JENKINS-46647] Unable to change from "Build with parameters" to "Build Now"

How to reproduce:

1. Configure Multibranch project with jenkinsfile and a pom.xml that should contain a version block. First build should run sucessfull.


2. Comment jenkins properties code block and commit changes.


3. Manual trigger "Scan Branch Pipeline Now"


4. "Build with Parameters" still present on left menu. "Build Now" should appear instead.

Jenkinsfile:

 

node('master'){

checkout scm


// Read POM

def pomModel = readMavenPom file: 'pom.xml'

def pomVersion = pomModel.version

properties([parameters([string(defaultValue: "${pomVersion}", description: 'Stage Information', name: 'versioninfo'),

string(defaultValue: 'My 1st Default Stage information', description: 'Stage Information', name: 'firststageinfo'),

string(defaultValue: 'My 2nd Default Stage information', description: 'Stage Information', name: 'secondstageinfo'),

string(defaultValue: 'My 3rd Default Stage information', description: 'Stage Information', name: 'thirdstageinfo')]),

pipelineTriggers([])])

echo pomVersion

echo params.firststageinfo

echo params.thirdstageinfo

}
