Jenkins中无法启动子进程的解决办法

在研究这个问题的时候，找到了另外一篇文章：https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/ProcessTreeKiller，这篇文章进一步描述了Hudson杀掉衍生进程的情况：

The ProcessTreeKiller takes advantage of the fact that by default a new process gets a copy of the environment variables of its spawning/creating process.

It sets a specific environment variable in the process executing the build job. Later, when the user requests to stop the build job’s process it gets a list of all processes running on the computer and their environment variables, and looks for the environment variable that it initially set for the build job’s process.

Every job with that environment variable in its environment is then terminated.

意思就是说，Jenkins会在执行Job时设置一系列的环境变量，这些环境变量将被Job衍生出的进程所继承。Jenkins在Kill掉衍生进程的时候会查看进程的环境变量，如果找到它之前设置的环境变量，就将其杀掉。

因此，Wiki中也给出了另外一个简单的方法来避免进程被杀掉：

A convenient way to achieve that is to change the environment variable BUILD_ID which Jenkins’s ProcessTreeKiller is looking for. This will cause Jenkins to assume that your daemon is not spawned by the Jenkins build.

修改Hudson设置的环境变量BUILD_ID的值，从而让Jenkins认为此进程不是由Job的构建过程衍生的，如：

BUILD_ID=dontKillMe /usr/apache/bin/httpd
后面的”/usr/apache/bin/httpd”可以省略，即只需要在parameter build trigger中加入一个string parameter，变量名为BUILD_ID，值为dontKillMe即可。
