Hi Thomas, I had a similar problem trying to release active-choices-plugin last Friday.
What worked for me was reading https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/INFRA-588 and updating the project pom.xml. Here's the summary for the fix, extracted from INFRA-588: """ UPDATE: the recommended and simplest solution is to just upgrade to the 2.x parent plugin pom. See https://github.com/jenkinsci/plugin-pom This issue has been fixed in that pom starting with its 2.5 version. So, just use that pom, and remove the references/overrides from your pom to make sure you inherit the right values. """ So here's what I did: https://github.com/jenkinsci/active-choices-plugin/commit/ccb6ed06784cc5499ef268e7d6bb81dfec46c350 Furthermore, after fixing it, the mvn release:prepare failed, due to FindBugs warnings (I assume this new parent is checking plug-ins for FindBugs issues). So I'd suggest 1) try changing your pom.xml as per INFRA-588 2) run mvn clean test findbugs:findbugs findbugs:gui and confirm all tests are passing, and that FindBugs is happy too 3) release it :) Hope that helps, Bruno ----- Original Message ----- > From: Thomas Fürer <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Sent: Monday, 7 November 2016 6:51 AM > Subject: Re: Problem during plugin release > > I have tried to execute these script but get an NullPointerException. > > I also have filed an Pull Request for my change. > > Maybe anyone from the infrastructure crew can add this. > > > Thanks > > Thomas > > > Am 06.11.2016 um 11:05 schrieb Fritz Elfert: >> Hi, >> >> You do not have permissions to release thinBackup (actually NOBODY has). >> You can fix this yourself.
