CURL failed to down load the ENTIRE build log in jenkins

I have a build step in Jenkins:

curl http://localhost:8080/job/%JOB_NAME%/%BUILD_NUMBER%/consoleText > d:\dblog.txt

to download the build log. It does download the file, but it always cuts the file, downloads part of the file only.

more mystery: the actually saved file, d:\dblog.txt, has a random size.

I tried to use --max-time for the curl command, it doesn't seems helping.

I am on windows 7 professional, the workstation has sufficient disk space.

when I create another project with a single step (same as above), the file IS downloaded completely.

How can I resolve this?

thanks, Heinz

If you have access to ${JENKINS_HOME}/jobs/${JOB_NAME}/builds/${BUILD_NUMBER}/log you can tail that file to overcome the problem.

Also, see https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-14899 . Updating Jenkins to 1618 might resolve this as well.
