How to enter subversion credentials in Hudson by shell?
I've tried to generate file hudson.scm.SubversionSCM.xml in HUDSON_HOME and reload configuration, but changes weren't applied.
The easiest way to enter a credential from the shell is to use "svn" executable. Hudson recognizes the ~/.subversion/auth directory that it creates.
Under Windows the global credenentials are stored under %APPDATA%\Subversion\auth. The following Groovy code helps generating these credentials:
SVNRepository repository = SVNRepositoryFactory.create(SVNURL.parseURIEncoded(url))
ISVNAuthenticationManager authManager = SVNWCUtil.createDefaultAuthenticationManager(SVNWCUtil.defaultConfigurationDirectory,"AD\user","password",true)
repository.setAuthenticationManager(authManager)
repository.getDir("", -1, null ,(Collection)null) // or some random SVN operation
Libraries used in the code above (example in Gradle):
compile 'org.tmatesoft.svnkit:org.tmatesoft.svnkit:1.7.8'
compile 'net.java.dev.jna:jna:3.4.0' // so wincrypt is available
Make sure you run the code with the same user Hudson runs on the Windows machine.
Just start with the Hudson.
Install all required Plug-Ins.
Hit the link,EX:-localhost:8080/hudson
Click on the add job/Create job.
While choosing the options SVN will be present there,Give the SVN location.
Credentials link is present out there.Click on that link.
A form will get open,provide valid credentials for that location of SVN.
Observe the Success message on the screen and then get back to the Create job,Complete with Job creation and Build the task.

I've been trying to follow the
Setting Up Stackdriver Debugger for Java applications on Google Compute Engine, but am running into issues with Stackdriver Debug.
I'm building my .war file from a separate build server, then deploying it to my GCE server. I added the agent to the start command via /etc/defaults, and my app appears in the https://console.cloud.google.com/debug control panel. The version I set in the run command matches the revision that shows up in the source-context(s).json files.
However when I click open the app, I see the message that
No source version information was provided by the deployed application
I connected the app's git repo as a mirrored cloud repository, and can browse the source files in the sidebar of the Stackdriver Debug page. But, If I browse to a file and add a breakpoint I get an error that the error "File was not found in the executable."
I have ran the gcloud preview app gen-repo-info-file command, which created two basic json files storing my git repo and revision. Is it supposed to do anything else?
I have tried running jetty using both normal and extracted modes. If I have jetty first extract the war file, I can see the source-context.json filesin the WEB-INF/classes directory.
What am I missing?
https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/cloud-debug-java#extra-classpath mentions
you can update the agentPath showing your WEB-INF/class directory.
-agentpath:/opt/cdbg/cdbg_java_agent.so=--cdbg_extra_class_path=/opt/tomcat/webapps/myapp/WEB-INF/classes
For multiple class paths:
-agentpath:/opt/cdbg/cdbg_java_agent.so=--cdbg_extra_class_path=/opt/tomcat/webapps/myapp/WEB-INF/classes:/another/path/with/classes
There are a couple of things going on here.
First, it sounds like you are doing the correct thing with gen-repo-info-file. The debugger agent should pick up the json files from the WEB-INF/classes directory.
The debugger uses fuzzy matching to find source files, so as long as the name of the .java file matches a file in your executable, you should not get that error.
The most likely scenario given the information in your question is that you are attaching the debugger to a launcher process, rather than your actual application. Without further details, I can't absolutely confirm that, though.
If you send us more details at cdbg-feedback#google.com, we can look more closely at your case to see if we can understand exactly what's happening, and potentially improve our documentation, since it sounds like you followed the docs pretty closely.
I currently have Jenkins set up with a number of jobs, but it's proving difficult to back up because the artifacts are stored within the job directory. I'd like to back up the job configurations and artifacts separately. I'm sure I remember reading somewhere that Jenkins now has an option to store them outside the job, but I can't find this.
Is there any configuration option that does this while still making the artifacts visible from within the job on the Jenkins interface? (ie rather than merely an add-in that copies the artifacts elsewhere)
Go to your jenkins configuration page, e.g.
http://mybuildserver.acme.com/configure
At the top of the configuration page there is a "home directory" setting. Click the "advanced..." button below it.
Now set the "Workspace Root Directory" to e:\jenkins-workspaces\${ITEM_FULL_NAME}, and "Build Record Root Directory" to e:\jenkins-builds\${ITEM_FULL_NAME} or something similar.
Warning: I run Jenkins 2.7.2 and noticed that certain features don't work properly after configuring Jenkins like that. I saw problems with folders and problems with the multi-branch project plugin. Check the status of those issues if your rely on these features.
As you can see here, there are many plugins to deploy artifacts anywhere you want/need, on FTP, CIFS, Confluence, Artifactory.... especially the ArtifactsDeployer that will allow you to make a copy of the artifacts in the Jenkins Home.
Thank you Sam, for your post, which directed me into the right direction to solve my problem.
Have been searching for a way on how can I make a symlink to the Job-Archive of a build for multibranch projects. Up to now, we used to manually search for the correct folder basename in the filesystem and added that one to the Jenkinsfile.
Now, I can simply use
jobOutputFolder = currentBuild.rawBuild.artifactsDir.path
and use that in my script.
If security is a concern, I could implement that as a shared library additionally.
Try the Use Custom Workspace build option. From the Jenkins popup help:
For each job on Jenkins, Jenkins allocates a unique "workspace
directory." This is the directory where the code is checked out and
builds happen. Normally you should let Jenkins allocate and clean up
workspace directories, but in several situations this is problematic,
and in such case, this option lets you specify the workspace location
manually.
This option is also available under advanced project properties of multi-configuration project builds.
A groovy script under "Prepare an environment for the run" will always run on the master, and this groovy script can create a symlink to where you really want artifacts archiving to archive_to which SHOULD include the job name and build number:
if (! Files.createSymbolicLink(Paths.get(currentBuild.artifactsDir.path),
Paths.get(archive_to.getCanonicalPath()))) {
throw new RuntimeException("Can't create symlink to archive dir")
}
Of course (sadly) when old builds are purged by Jenkins the old artifacts are left because jenkins will not follow a symlink when purging, even if jenkins owns the symlink and the target (shame).
I workaround for that may be to point a symlink back from the new archive dir, then, when jenkins purges it's archive dir, the new symlink will dangle and a cron job can then later delete the new job archive dir
Copy Artifact Plugin (https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Copy+Artifact+Plugin) adds a build step for retrieving files from another project's workspace to current and work from there.
After installing and playing around with mercurial , I am trying to get Hudson to clone the repository so it can build my project.
At the moment the following task works.
I Can sync to my external host and the code shows up on that host.
Now I am trying to configure hudson / jenkins to access the code on my host.
But unfortunately I am rolling on a error:

What actions do i need to do to tell Hudson to use username x and password y to acces the data?
Edited => Found how to integrate ssh .
Used SSH instead of https
Download putty.exe, puttygen.exe, pageant.exe, and plink.exe from the PuTTY website.
Start puttygen and generate a key in OPENSSH FORMAT (hudsons format) (=> How to use Svn + SSH )
Click the Save private key button and save the .PPK file somewhere.
Click the Save public key button and save it.
Go to your website and enter the public ssh-key
Run pageant.exe. The pageant icon (a computer wearing a hat) will show up in the status tray.
Right-click the pageant icon and choose Add Key.
Choose the .PPK file you saved earlier and type in its passphrase.

Install the Mercurial plugin in Hudson
All that’s left to do now is install
the Mercurial plugin in hudson. In a
browser, go to
http://INSERT_YOUR_IP_HERE:8080.
Hudson should come up.
Click on “Manage Hudson” and go to
“Manage Plugins”. Go to the
“Available” tab, check “Hudson
Mercurial plugin” and hit the
“Install” button. Hudson will prompt
you to restart, and then it’s
installed.
After that, just create a new job and
you’ll have a new “mercurial” option
in the “source control management”
section. Select that and put the ssh
URL in the “Repository URL” field.
Then put “default” in the “branch”
field and set up the rest of the job
to build/test your code (an exercise
left to the reader).
and here it is the first succesfull build !
Conclusion : This is a summary of all the small blogpost scattered arround the internet. I hope this post helps you in starting hudson and mercurial.
I think the problem is not related to username and password. Your stacktrace tells you there's something wrong with the path F:\Hudson\jobs\testproject\workspace.
Cannot run program hg (in directory
"F:\Hudson\jobs\testproject\workspace")
The directory name is invalid
Anyway, you can specify the username and password in the URL like: http://user:password#mydomain.org.
To authenticate the Jenkins/Hudson Mercurial plugin with BitBucket I too found it useful to use the SSH protocol instead of HTTPS particularly since:
there doesn't seem to be a way to store your HTTPS credentials to BitBucket with the Mercurial Jenkins plugin, but with SSH you can safely and securely store your credentials
with SSH you can configure it to use compression, which Mercurial doesn't do natively.
Good instructions for setting up SSH access to BitBucket are available here: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BITBUCKET/Using+SSH+to+Access+your+Bitbucket+Repository
Notes:
If you are running Jenkins/Hudson on a *nix server, you will want to login as the user running the Jenkins process and perform these operations from that users home directory, so the configurations will be found by that user (e.g. on my Debian server installation of Jenkins standalone, the user 'jenkins' is created and the home directory is set to '/var/lib/jenkins' [not /home/jenkins] - where I performed the instructions provided at the above link).
I found it very helpful to assure the hg clone command worked from the command line before attempting to have Jenkins call it.
IMPORTANT: In order to get this to work, I had to generate a key ** without ** a passphrase.
You can add the following lines to jenkins .hgrc file (usually /var/lib/jenkins/.hgrc)
[auth]
bitbucket.prefix = https://bitbucket.org/your_user/...
bitbucket.username = your_user
bitbucket.password = ******
See http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/hgrc.5.html#auth
You can add your scm credentials in the 'Credentials` section of Jenkins:
Also change the job configuration to use the credentials:
I tried to do this in Hudson but:
I have a script in Perl on my server (windows): lets say: d\util\demo.pl I want to have it running in Hudson. so I go to Hudson, create new job, go to: Build Execute Windows batch command and add: perl.exe d\util\demo.pl
I got this error: 'perl.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
please help!
It can't find the perl.exe in the path of the agent that is running the task. Verify that perl is properly installed AND that the path where perl.exe was in stalled to is in you system path on EVERY agent that will run this task.
Can you run that command from any folder of the server?
If yes, than the Hudson server runs definitely under a different user account. Make sure that the user account Hudson is running under has all necessary environment variables set.
If not, than add the full qualified path to the perl.exe (e.g. C:\program files\perl\bin\perl.exe d:\util\demo.pl). If this doesn't help, you have to also set all environment variables (see "if yes").
Findbugs script in build.xml:
Findbugs checks Coding...
Findbugs checks Coding...
genetate a findbugs_result.xml.
Download Findbugs plugin for hudson.
Enter findbugs_result.xml path for hudson.
But hudson can not display on main interface. why?
I've found some annoying inconsistencies in the way Hudson stores paths; sometimes you use the overall workspace directory for the Hudson job and other times you have to use the path to the code that the job checks out of source control. For example, if your code gets checked out to MyProject under your workspace directory, and then the test XML files go into MyProject/target/test-reports, try specifying the path with and without the MyProject at the beginning of the path.
