Hello, I am trying to make Jenkins and Coverity Static Analysis work together for projects in C/C++. I have a Jenkins Master on an Ubuntu 12.04 and a Jenkins Slave and Coverity both on the same Debian Lenny. My version of Jenkins is the 1.466.1. The builds ont Jenkins are triggered by Gerrit: when a change is pushed on a project, the Jenkins master tells the slave to download the sources and build the project. This part alone works fine. I also managed to make Coverity SA work on its own: the tools cov-build, cov-analyze and cov-commit-defects are working. Now, I want to integrate Coverity with Jenkins: I installed the latest version of *this plugin*<https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Coverity+Plugin>. In the configuration of my project on Jenkins, I added a Coverity post-build action, specified an Coverity Integrity Manager Instance, a coverity project and stream. I want Jenkins to perform a Coverity build, analysis and commit. According to the help window of this option, "Jenkins will automatically monitor the build using cov-build, then invoke cov-analyze and cov-commit-defects". Then, when a build is triggered, Jenkins successfully connect to the slave who downloads and builds the project, but the cov-analyze is launched and it fails because of the absence of intermediate directory. As I understand it, cov-build is never launched and does not "monitor the build", therefore the intermediate directory needed for the analysis is never created. Here is log of one of my failed builds:

What am i doing wrong? Thank you for your help
