GITHUB_TOKEN in refactor_openjdk_release_tool_new

[sophia-guo]

We need to setup GITHUB_TOKEN for https://ci.adoptium.net/view/all/job/refactor_openjdk_release_tool_new/configure, details

The one set a few weeks doesn't work. https://ci.adoptium.net/view/all/job/refactor_openjdk_release_tool_new/6/console

I've had a look at it, tested with resetting the token, and also tested using a copy of the original release tool with the token explicitly set to the one I set in your job, and it all works ok, which suggests that the new pipeline is not correctly picking up the value in the way it is expecting.

I have updated the job configuration to manually add the parameter GITHUB_TOKEN as empty string instead of defining it by dsl ( which resets the value every time the jenkinsfile is executed). @sxa could you please reset the token's value, thanks!

I tried to compare the token value with the original release tool and the one I'm doing and found those two are not the same. The error message seems it is a token issue as normally 401 means "Unauthorized". So there seems be something with the credentials.

Using the credentials --> eclipse_temurin_bot_token as suggested got error message 'Could not find credentials entry with ID ' eclipse_temurin_bot_token''. Pipeline Syntax generator generated the id with one extra space, I also tried with no space both got the same error message.

withCredentials([string(credentialsId: ' eclipse_temurin_bot_token', variable: 'secretToken')])

The interesting thing is using eclipse_aqavit_bot_token there is no space with ID name.

withCredentials([string(credentialsId: 'eclipse_aqavit_bot_token', variable: 'secretAqaToken'), string(credentialsId: ' eclipse_temurin_bot_token', variable: 'secretTemurinToken')]) {
    // some block
}

Would that be a typo error when setting the credentials? Or the credentials eclipse_temurin_bot_token setting's access control should be updated (In Manage Jenkins -> Configure Global Security, toward the middle of page there's a section called Access Control For Builds. Set the Strategy to Run as SYSTEM) ?

Might not have sufficient permissions to access credentials eclipse_temurin_bot_token ?

Instead of using the password parameter will use credentials. Close this one.
