[JENKINS-24563] attempting to rename a project name with a trailing space ends up with an "Oops"

danielbeck:

Are you able to reproduce this with other projects? Are there any other messages in the log related to this?

Looks just like the usual locked file failure on Windows...

amesser:

I can confirm the issue for Jenkins V1.594. The problem occurs when the job name has leading or trailing whitespaces. Windows will remove these whitespaces automatically when creating the job directory. Whenever jenkins tries to access the directory later on windows can not find it because of the spaces.
