Jenkins jobs have config.xml files that store the configuration of that job. I have a “job manager” job that modifies the configuration of other jobs, but I can’t seem to get it to acknowledge the new configuration without restarting Jenkins. The jenkins-cli.jar command line tool strangely doesn’t seem to have an option for this action. It is possible to edit the configuration through the web interface, and have that save/acknowledged without a restart, so it [...]

I have a fresh installation of Hudson, default directories and all that. I have been following This Guide I have followed what it said, up to the actual 000-default modification. I’m sort of stuck on this part. This is what I have as my 000-default file: <VirtualHost *:80> DocumentRoot /var/www ServerName name ServerAlias name <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None </Directory> <Directory /var/www/> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride None Order allow,deny allow from all </Directory> [...]

At my office we have an older server running Hudson (1.395) and a collection of other things (JIRA and SVN being the important two). When Husdon is running builds, the slowdown on the server is very noticeable. I’ve been trying to find a way to re-nice the build processes that Hudson kicks off (we use maven). There doesn’t seem to be an option for this. I don’t want the copy of Tomcat Hudson is running [...]

Hudson is a continuous integration engine that runs as a Java Servlet in tomcat. https://hudson.dev.java.net/ I have Tomcat 5.5 successfully installed on my CentOS 5.3 system. I can see and interact with it on port 8080. I can upload the hudson.war file which reports success and appears to unpack everything correctly into the webapps directory. However, when I attempt to start the hudson application from the tomcat web application manager page it fails reporting “FAIL [...]

I’m using hudson as my CI and it works great, builds run their tests, code metrics, all that good stuff. But at the moment, that’s it, no automated deployment, I have to manually do that after. I haven’t found any sort of capistrano plugin for hudson and I can’t even see where I can just run my cap deploy after a successful build in Hudson. Does anyone have any idea what I need in order [...]

I’ve created almost the same plugin as JobTypeColumn. There is only one difference – it shows job description instead of job type. But after i can’t add this column to my list view. I have an NullPointerException after i edited my config.xml manually. java.lang.NullPointerException at hudson.model.Descriptor.newInstancesFromHeteroList(Descriptor.java:626) at hudson.util.DescribableList.rebuildHetero(DescribableList.java:164) at hudson.model.ListView.submit(ListView.java:262) at hudson.model.View.doConfigSubmit(View.java:484) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Unknown Source) at org.kohsuke.stapler.Function$InstanceFunction.invoke(Function.java:185) at org.kohsuke.stapler.Function.bindAndInvoke(Function.java:101) at org.kohsuke.stapler.Function.bindAndInvokeAndServeResponse(Function.java:54) at org.kohsuke.stapler.MetaClass$1.doDispatch(MetaClass.java:74) at org.kohsuke.stapler.NameBasedDispatcher.dispatch(NameBasedDispatcher.java:30) at [...]

I want to setup two Hudson Master on the same Hardware. This will make administering Hudson easier, since both servers are used by two different (and independent) teams. So far I tried to install one server as a service. I verified the installation and it is running ok. I than copied the installation into another path and changed the service information (different service Name and description) and the httpPort. I then create the service, once [...]

I’m using hudson to auto-deploy my Rails app to heroku. In my main build job I pull from a Git repo (hosted using gitosis on the same machine), master branch with the following: URL of repository: /home/git/repositories/my_app.git Name of repository: origin Refspec: +refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master Branches to build: master Then, assuming all tests pass, I want to kick off a new build that is the deploy to Heroku. I can’t however figure out how to get that [...]

I installed Hudson deamon on one server (running on debian lenny testing) some time ago. All was working until I perform an upgrade. At this time Hudson isn’t accessible at port 8080 (which is the default port used). I have looked for iptables problems, however port 8080 is open in INPUT and OUTPUT. Configuration file in /etc/default/hudson seems okay, I haven’t touch it. And if I do a ps aux | grep hudson, hudson deamon [...]

I have Hudson running and made available to the world via nginx. I have protected Hudson with nginx’s auth_basic and that works great. The trouble is, I want to allow unauthenticated requests to the build URL, i.e. /job/<job_name>/build. Currently I have this in my nginx conf: upstream hudson { server 127.0.0.1:8888; }server { server_name ci.myurl.com; root /var/lib/hudson; location / { proxy_pass http://hudson/; auth_basic “Super secret stuff”; auth_basic_user_file /var/opt/hudson/htpasswd; } location ~ /build { auth_basic off; [...]
