xml config is wiped out when pod is restarted

[acanlord]

Describe the bug

After I configured persistent mounts and verified data was being written to the mount, I configured LDAP in the jenkins UI and hit save. Upon Deleting the pod my saved configs have been reverted. I have tried to configure using helm chart suggested values as well but neither seem to work.

controller: JCasC: configScripts: ldap-settings: | jenkins: securityRealm: ldap: configurations: - server: ldap.acme.com rootDN: dc=acme,dc=uk managerPasswordSecret: ${LDAP_PASSWORD} groupMembershipStrategy: fromUserRecord: attributeName: "memberOf"

Version of Helm and Kubernetes

- Helm: 3.5.3
- Kubernetes: 1.23.17

Chart version

jenkins-4.3.30

What happened?

LDAP settings were reverted after restarting the POD.

Manually configure:
1. Manually configure LDAP from the jenkins UI. 
2. Hit save in the Jenkins UI.
3. Delete the POD. All saved values will be reverted.

HELM Chart values are not configured in the UI as expected.

Configure via Helm chart:
1. Configured LDAP using helm chart values is not reflected in the UI.
...

What you expected to happen?

I would expect to see the LDAP values which I either configured manually or via helm chart to be configured in the UI.

How to reproduce it

helm install jenkins jenkinsci/jenkins -n jenkins -f values.yaml

Anything else we need to know?

No response

I can see the values I passed when I run the following command:

helm -n jenkins get values jenkins

The values in ldap-settings look correct however they are not reflected in the UI. Is there something im missing?

I am facing a similar issue, where I configure SAML and corporate proxy through jcasc. On a restart Jenkins cannot connect to SAML as the proxy config needs to be applied first.

That sounds like a different issue.

For the actual issue, unless you've disabled the default scripts you need to override the built-in one here: https://github.com/jenkinsci/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/jenkins#configure-security-realm-and-authorization-strategy
