4 years ago I am observing the same issue with one of my JOB, but for another job I can see the history even after restart the Jenkins server.
I found that plugin causing the issue: testInProgress 1.4
Option Show tests in progress under "Build Environment" was checked for the job history getting deleted.
I have unchecked the same and now I an see the build history after restart also.
My JENKINS server version: 2.190.2
Plugin: testInProgress 1.4
Jenkins version 2.117 (upgraded from 2.107.1 to try to resolve issue) is running builds but they seem to disappear from the Dashboard after a restart. I have Jenkins setup on Linux and all the log is present under ${JENKINS_HOME}/jobs/${ITEM_FULL_NAME}/builds
I have tried Reload Configuration from Disk with following set in /etc/sysconfig/jenkins
{{JENKINS_JAVA_OPTIONS="-Djava.awt.headless=true }}
Below is build and workspace directory settings:
Workspace Root Directory :${JENKINS_HOME}/workspace/${ITEM_FULL_NAME}
Build Record Root Directory: ${ITEM_ROOTDIR}/builds
Below you can see the build number 117 and 118 for one of my jobs, but still, the lastFailedBuild, lastStableBuild , lastSuccessfulBuild are set to -1, which doesn't exist
drwxr-xr-x 4 jenkins jenkins 4096 Apr 2 20:17 117

lrwxrwxrwx 1 jenkins jenkins 2 Apr 3 10:58 lastUnstableBuild -> -1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 jenkins jenkins 2 Apr 3 10:58 lastUnsuccessfulBuild -> -1
I have also set the
Discard Old Builds Slicer - Days to keep artifacts as 30 Discard Old Builds Slicer - Max # of builds to keep as 40
I ran the jenkins-job-checker[ https://github.com/docwhat/jenkins-job-checker ] on one of the jobs and found the following :
Problem: NOTLINK: The number link builds/1 is not a symlink!
Problem: NOTLINK: The number link builds/2 is not a symlink!
Problem: NOTLINK: The number link builds/3 is not a symlink!
Proposal: Archive non-link builds/1
Proposal: Archive non-link builds/2
Proposal: Archive non-link builds/3
Really appreaciate some help
