Hi Bob, the plugin is at the moment buggy... I learned of 2 triggers for this behaviour. The first is very inconsistent: If the triggered job is located on a different machine as the parent job Second is occurring always: *Which build: Upstream build that triggered this job *The second trigger fail my build always. And this is extraordinary annoying as I have to select a strategy that is prone to errors (Last successful build) if I want to keep the functionality...
