title: Jenkins pipeline job reports Groovy binding error
body: <p>I have a Jenkins job that loads a groovy file which defines the pipeline to run. When I run this job it reports an error - <code>groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: â€‹ for class: groovy.lang.Binding</code> (stack trace below).  </p>
  
  <p>This was working yesterday and inexplicably stopped working.  I have searched the docs, googled the error and simplified the job and common groovy file as much as possible but cannot identify the issue so far.</p>
  
  <p><strong>My question is, has anyone seen this issue before and if so what was the root casue and solution?</strong></p>
  
  <p><em>Pipeline job script:</em></p>
  
  <pre><code>#!groovy
  
  node
  {
      def pipeline = load "CommonPipeline.groovy"
      pipeline.run()
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><em>CommonPipeline.groovy:</em></p>
  
  <pre><code>#!groovy
  ​
  def run()
  {
       echo "#### THIS WORKS! ####"
  }
  
  return this
