This technical paper provides an in-depth analysis of zombie job issues in Jenkins and presents effective solutions that do not require server restart. When Jenkins jobs run indefinitely without actual execution, traditional interruption methods often fail. By examining Jenkins' internal mechanisms, the paper offers three robust approaches: using the Script Console to directly terminate jobs, interrupting hanging execution threads, and leveraging HTTP endpoints for forced build stoppage. Each method includes detailed code examples and step-by-step instructions, enabling system administrators to resolve zombie job issues efficiently. The paper also discusses practical case studies and important considerations for implementation.
