Hi, > I'm not sure I understood that, but could you add the option in > build.properties? There is no local build.properties file that we can easily edit on the Jenkins box (as we have no access) and we wouldn't want to put it in SVN as it would then effect all builds. Initially Jenkins start with a clean slate and checks out everything from SVN.

I could have the build script generate a build.properties file but that seem a little silly. > On a related note, is there a way to ask Jenkins to simply 'try again'? Yes but it would fail again, if the files are not there it will fail each time until we change to build options to download the files. > Back in the day, we had a file called kick-build.txt in the root that we'd > modify > and check in to do that. Any checkin will trigger a build and run of the check in texts (once per hour max). You can also manually run builds. Justin
