lestin commented on JENKINS-13270:
----------------------------------
Ah, maybe that's where the confusion is. Below description is based on Linux
BTW.
Perforce can create a p4 ticket file (normally |/.p4ticket) that remembers your
login if you use "p4 login -a"
Once that's setup (you can setenv P4TICKET to change the default file path), p4
will check the file to see if this user had been id-cleared.
In my setup, I configured jenkins_home/.p4ticket and it has registered my
success login (p4 login -a with my user id).
With this, jenkins can access the perforce database as if it were me (or any
one else that has registered himself in jenkins_home/.p4ticket).
Now at the job configuration page, i configured it as normal (correct
combination of user id, passwd).
If this user id has been registered in jenkins_home/.p4ticket, the passwd can
be a wrong one, no issue at all.
If this user id has not been registered in jenkins_home/.p4ticket, even the
correct combination will caused a login error with the line
"Perforce password (P4PASSWD) invalid or unset." --- Note that
this line is from the web page, not the jenkins.log
I tried to set P4PASSWD variable in the environment var field, tick the box
in job configuration etc, none of them worked.
If i put an invalid user id, the plugin immediately informs me that.
