Test Runner Error

We use Jenkins to execute our tests automatically using the test runner. We execute them using the following command:

CALL "%SOAPUI_HOME%\bin\testrunner.bat" %%g -PEnvironment=%RUN_ENVIRONMENT% -Ijf TestResults\%%~ng

So to test this I've been running the following, just like jenkins is:

testrunner.bat "C:\....\Test.xml" -PEnvironment={ENV} -Ijf TestResults\Test

When I run this on my development machine, everything works just fine and I see the following output:

This is what I expect. However, when I run it on the jenkins server I get the following:

and the stack trace continues.

 

We do have a custom library that we wrote for data assertions and building/tearing down test data using sql scripts. And it runs just fine EXCEPT on the jenkins servers. There are 3 servers with this issue currently.

When I load the SoapUI GUI and run the tests, everything passes just fine. It's only when I execute the test from the command line it seems to have an issue.

I copied my entire install folder of SoapUI from my development machine to the Jenkins server, thinking maybe it was an issue with the install, and I have the same results. 

At this point I'm out of ideas on why SoapUI is throwing this error when running a test through the command line on these specific servers.

All of them have the same JDK installed (23), the same version of groovy (3.0.19), the same version of SoapUI (5.8).

Any suggestions on other things I can look at would be greatly appreciated.

    So we found what the issue is, but not the why, so this is our theory:

    using rows.size works in the UI, as it allows an implicit function call to work. Something changed in a windows update (Updates rolled on the original vm with the issue in december, my local machine in January, which is when my local started having the same issue) that no longer allows implicit function calls and now requires explicit function calls. Something we're assuming changed with a windows or java update that was rolled out, that won't allow the test runner to make that decision of is it a function or a property.

    The fix was just making sure .size was called using .size(). But why this stopped working after 10 years of being fine is still unknown.
