Description

I upgraded to the latest stable version of jenkins and updated all plugins. After there update, none of my pipelines want to build. The console prints out a lot of lines: "[Pipeline] tool" followed by a stack trace.

 

[Pipeline] tool

[Pipeline] tool

[Pipeline] End of Pipeline

java.lang.StackOverflowError

Research direction

Start by reviewing the attached active.txt file and the reported Pipeline console output, then reproduce the failure after upgrading Jenkins and its plugins. Trace the java.lang.StackOverflowError through the pipeline component and identify the upgrade or plugin interaction involved. Done means pipelines build successfully without the recursive marshalling failure.
