AWS CloudWatch Logs Publisher plugin hangs on job completion We use the AWS CloudWatch Logs Publisher plugin on our Jenkins and most of the time the logs are sent within 2-5 seconds of the request being sent out. However, sometimes the step will hang for up to 5-10 minutes, with no errors in the console or in Jenkins' log. The job hangs with the following status message;


  AWS CloudWatch Logs Publisher is waiting for a checkpoint on [...]


It always completes successfully, even with the delay. 

Has anyone seen this before? Is there anything I can do to prevent the step hanging?
Googling returns only this Q&amp;A:



It looks like that it is not a reported issue. Also combined with your remark, i.e.:


  It always completes successfully, even with the delay.


I wonder whether it is really an issue as I have seen a lot of logs and also weird messages while everything worked. What I do in such situation is talk with the developer of the code. In this case I would create an issue in the Jenkins bug tracker and discuss whether this is an issue and whether the developers should change the code that triggers this message.
