olivergondza:

Please be more specific on how you renamed the job and what was the failure exactly. I presume this have nothing to do with job-parameter-summary-plugin so setting component to core.

Basically this is what i did. I first created a job as "Test sanity job." then later i renamed job to "Daily Sanity job". After renaming the job was failing in pre-reqs.

Then to fix this I tried renaming as "Daily_Sanity_Job". It started working fine. So I suspect renaming with text having space leads to this issue. Let me know if you need any information.

This is where we need more details.

This is likely a problem with something you wrote, rather than in Jenkins. Often, scripts don't consider spaces in paths or similar unusual cases, and fail when encountering this situation.
