I have integrated my BDD framework with jenins. I am getting mail only when build is unstable and when build goes unstable to stable. but i want to trigger mail for every buld creation irrespective of failure, success or stable

There is great build-name-setter-plugin for Jenkins, but in my instance it has staility issue over dependency version marking some builds as failed
IllegalStateException (Build step 'Changes build name' marked build as failure), while actual build is SUCCESS #62

I cannot upgrade Jenkins or plugins right now.
How to make Jenkins job not to fail upon post-build actions failures?
It would be better build name not changed occasionally, than making build as failures while code is OK.
I have a Github project with a webhook to trigger the build on Jenkins.
It works pretty well. I used the option "Trigger builds remotely" from Jenkins.
In the final steps of the build, it updates some files to update the package version, and submit it back to github.
This triggers a new build, generating an infinity loop of builds.
How to prevent this extra build to be triggered?
I tried the option "Polling ignores commits from certain users" to prevent builds from the bot user. but it seems to work only with the Polling process, and not the remote trigger.
For my Jenkins job I would like to have Jenkins send e-mails under two conditions:
The build was fine before, but now it fails.
The build failed before, but now it is fine.
I do not want it to send e-mails for any additional failing builds between (1) and (2).
I would have expected that having the setting "Send e-mail for every unstable build" unchecked would prevent just that, but I receive e-mail for every single failed build.
How can I achieve my desired behavior? Is this a bug in Jenkins (2.121.2) or the Mailer plugin (1.21)?
There is a better plugin for sending emails on certain conditions on Jenkins plugin site: https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Email-ext+plugin
Try finding Editable email in post-build actions or install it via Jenkins manage plugins options.
Below is a screenshot which is part of the Editable Email notification post-build task:
I’m using Jenkins v 1.61 with Java 7. I have a Maven job set up, using SVN for Source Code Management. I have a “Run buildstep before SCM runs” set up (courtesy of the pre-scm-buildstep plugin) and a pre-build step (a short script) set up prior to the Maven goals being run.
My question is, if any of these steps fails, how can I get notified via email of the failure?
Use Jenkins Mailer Plugin, This plugin allows you to configure email notifications for build results.
Plugin ID mailer
Latest Release 1.18
Latest Release Date Sep 04, 2016
Required Core 1.625.3
E-Mail notifications are configured in jobs by adding an E-mail notification Post-build Action. If configured, Jenkins will send out an e-mail to the specified recipients when a certain important event occurs:
Every failed build triggers a new e-mail.
A successful build after a failed (or unstable) build triggers a new
e-mail, indicating that a crisis is over.
An unstable build after a successful build triggers a new e-mail,
indicating that there's a regression.
Unless configured, every unstable build triggers a new e-mail,
indicating that regression is still there.
How about combining pre-scm-buildstep, conditional-buildstep and any-buildstep plugin.
This should allow you to run a publisher step like sending email notifications on a regular build step or a pre scm build step (feature provided by any-buildstep plugin). You could also add a condition check (feature provided by the conditional-buildstep plugin) on the pre-scm-buildstep phase.
You've mentioned that you use a short script prior to the pre-scm-buildstep, just in case you're exporting environment variables as input for your conditional check, remember that you'll also need to write that to a properties file (SEND_EMAIL=true >> my-job.properties) and use env inject plugin to load them on your job environment variables, freestyle jobs don't persist exported shell variables on build steps to be visible to the next steps that come after it.
Lot's of plugins right? Quite annoying. If you want something more elegant, I would recommend using pipeline as code plugin and wrapping everything on a try/catch/finally block, so you could raise an exception before the code checkout stage given a failed check, there are some examples in this article.
I am building our SVN trunk repository every hour. I have configured Jenkins to send emails to those developers who broke the build. For some reason, Jenkins seems to send email to any developer who has ever at any point committed to SVN. I would expect Jenkins to send emails only to those who have broken the build, i.e. those developers who have committed code between a successful build and the failed build. Now it seems that all our developers get sent an email for every failed build.
Any ideas?
Have you tried editable email notification, where you can configure for failure, unstable or any other kind of trigger.
