Hi everybody.
John, I've started reading Jenkins: The Definitive Guide today (I'm a
Jenkins newbie too) and I've had the very same problem as you.
It's been driving me mad all day long.. Stuck at page 24 - ho la la.
I thought that it was because my Git directory was not at the default place
(G:\Git\ instead of C:\Program Files (x86)) and
wasted a lot of time trying to generate a link/directory junction... But
nope.
I finally hit this post and tried ssh without passphrase an *it worked!*
My local configuration is:
Git directory: G:\Git
Git plugin version: 2.2.2
Git client plugin version 1.9.1
Gobal Jenkins configuration: Section Git
Name: Git
Path to Git executable: G:\Git\bin\git.exe
Section CVS
Private key location: G:/Git/.ssh/id_rsa
Private Key Password: none (displays *********)
Known Hosts Location: G:/Git/.ssh/known_hosts
Project configuration:
Source Code Management
Git Repository URL [email protected]:{my
login}/game-of-life.git
Credentials: none
Please note that I had to copy the ~/.ssh files in G:/Git/.ssh too.
So:
- try ssh without passphrase in Jenkins at least when it comes down to the
book examples;
- copy your ssh files in the Git/.ssh directory next to the Git/bin
directory.
Regards, Lochrann
