Previous upgrade was done without any issue. I did not find any references in release note about these variables. Also in upgrade guides, no references found about changes related to these variables.

CodePudding user response：

After investigation and checking into the Jenkins code, I found the reason.

in config.xml file I had to change 2 tag's values:

  <workspaceDir>D:\JenkinsData\Workspaces\${ITEM_FULLNAME}</workspaceDir>
  <buildsDir>D:\JenkinsData\jobs\${ITEM_FULLNAME}\builds</buildsDir>

  <workspaceDir>D:\JenkinsData\Workspaces\${ITEM_FULL_NAME}</workspaceDir>
  <buildsDir>D:\JenkinsData\jobs\${ITEM_FULL_NAME}\builds</buildsDir>

After this change Jenkins starts without issue.
