Steps to Upgrade - quick question

Hi All There are notes on how to install Jenkins. But there's not many notes on how to upgrade Jenkins or migrate from Hudson. Are there exact steps on how to upgrade (like what directories to copy after deploying a new Jenkins war file) so we don't miss any plugins, artifacts histories and job co

Re: git: Can I change a barnach in 'Branches to build' in configuration after building a project in a specific branch

Yes, you can change the branch specification later. I myself always like to explicitly specify the branch instead of leaving it blank. I really don't know what the git plugin does when you leave it blank. Is there a reason why you cannot specify the name of the branch in the job configuration?

Re: Which branch is build if there are multiple branches in a job and job has been configured for all jobs?

I guess you are using git as your version control system and your question is specific to the way the Jenkins git plugin works. It really would make answering these questions a bit easier if people would tell a little bit what kind of setup they have... If the git plugin has been configured to

Re: copy artifact fail

It looks like the artifact was being copied to a slave and the connection broke. The reason is not clear from the stacktrace. Is there anything in the logs on the slave side? -- Sami Chris Withers kirjoitti 29.1.2013 kello 14.21: > Hi All, > > I've seen stack traces such as the following a c

Re: How to lauch tomcat6 into /etc/init.d

It is not a good idea to run Jenkins as root. Unless you know what you are doing. And even then it is not a good idea. And if you do not know how to do it, you definitely should not be doing it. Maybe instead you could explain what you are trying to do and why do you think you need Jenkins to h

Re: Installing operating systems on slaves via Jenkins

And if your slaves are not virtual machines, take a look at https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/PXE+Plugin or https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Scripted+Cloud+plugin -- Sami Mark Waite kirjoitti 30.1.2013 kello 14.31: > If you need to restore an existing operating system to

Re: Jenkins/Slave connection via TelNet

Which Jenkins version are you using? Recent Jenkins versions allowed unauthenticated access to the slave-agent.jnlp URL, which makes starting JNLP slaves a bit more difficult. I'm pretty sure the slave startup does not use -auth option to provide a username and password. Where did you pick that

Re: All my added build descriptions and "keep build forever" annotations gone!

Did you upgrade or downgrade Jenkins? Has it restarted? What is in the log file? Did you have job config history plugin installed? And if not, why? Is your Jenkins configured to require login allowing changes? -- Sami Steve K kirjoitti 2.2.2013 kello 0.13: > Has anyone else encountered this?

Re: "keep this build forever" via rest api?

Hello Chris. The /toggleLogKeep URL in the job can do that. For example: http://[url]/job/[JOB-NAME]/20/toggleLogKeep This URL will change the lock status of the build 20. There's an interesting thing that you can use too: you can list all the keep forever builds by using this URL: http:// [ur
