I am trying to integrate jenkins with Gitlab for CI such that if push event is happens then build will be triggered. I am using two things to connect. One is Gitlab acess token: I have created project specific access token and added in Jenkins global configuration. Second is SSH primary key: I have added this in my job configuration. Now when I test the webhook I get below error. Can any leads help me to fix it?
Hook executed successfully but returned HTTP 500 <head resURL="/static/861bc558" data-rooturl=""
I will attach full error if needed

So I have a self hosted Artifactory repository which I wanted to use with a Jenkins pipeline, I deployed Jenkins with ngrok in order to have a fake domain.
When I created the webhook inside Artifactory I used the following URL: https:///generic-webhook-trigger/invoke?token=123**
I tried testing it inside Artifactory and keep getting the error alert "Sending a dummy Webhook failed" and of course, the pipeline not getting triggered
This is the output inside ngrok command, looks like the webhook is getting triggered but ngrok is showing a 404 error
I've been stuck for days and I hope someone here can help me with this.
It seems that the problem is in the webhook service configuration, either in Jenkins or in ngork.
Did you try calling the webhook service directly from curl or postman?
Did you try calling the Jenkins webhook service directly to make sure it is configured correctly?
You may try configuring Artifactory to call Jenkins directly by setting urlStrictPolicy to false in system.yaml.
You can read more about configuring Artifactory webhook in the following article:

I am using bitbucket cloud and jenkins is running on ec2 instance on the private network.
Connection is well established between bitbucket and jenkins as when i run the job manually, the job shows the green status. However when i made the changes in the repo and it gets merged the webhook is not using my app password and as a result the job is getting failed.
I am getting authentication failed and It's basically asking me to use the app password. I have already created it but still webhook is not using it. I am getting the response 200 now in webhook means my webhook is able to reach the jenkins server but i am not sure why i am getting authentication failed.
Can you confirm that:
Your credentials are correctly placed under the credentials section of Jenkins. The username should be the username of the account you are using, and the password should be the app password. It should be present like this:
The ID of the credentials should be used within your pipeline script anywhere you want access to the Bitbucket repository.
Ensure that Bitbucket has access to your EC2 instance that runs Jenkins.
Basically, these are the 3 points where authentication can fail. Checking each point should reveal the problem.
I've followed this gitlab tutorial link, to connect my jenkins server to Gitlab.
Everyting went fine, and I've :
created a personnal access token in my GitLab profile
created a GitLab API Token using the my GitLab access token in jenkins system configuration as stated in the tutorial
create a freestyle jenkins job and Choose my GitLab connection from the dropdown
checked the Build when a change is pushed to GitLab checkbox.
checked the Accepted Merge Request Events and Closed Merge Request Events checkboxes
generated a secret token from the above freestyle project
use the freestyle jenkins project secret token to create a webhook in the GitLab project repository integration settings
Till there everything went fine.
Then I added and push code including a jenkinsFile to my GitLab repository, and get to the Jenkins WebUI to view the build status, but the pipeline shown green saying build success, while nothing happened, no code has been retrieved from GitLab (as shown in the attached console output screenshot), thus no jenkinsFile executed nor error message shown.
I tried to run the buils manually from WebUI but same result, no way to trigger my pipeline on git push events from GitLab
I thought may be I should select Git in Source Code Management section (I left it to None as the tutorial doesn't mention it) but if I choose Git as SCM I cannot select my GitLab API Token credentials, seeming like we cannot use GitLab plugin (API Token) and Git plugin for the same build project.
SO how should I proceed to be able build my jenkins project from GitLab with a jenkinsFile, using GitLab API Token?
Does the GitLab tutorial miss some useful steps?
OK, I think I understand the issue now.
There are two sets of credentials: GitLab API token for access to GitLab Webhooks and a separate one for cloning the git repo during builds.
So we can't use the GitLab API token for cloning the repository. For this you have to use either a SSH key or a Username/Password combination. Furthermore this dropdown is part of the git plugin not the gitlab plugin.
So the gitlab plugin can't tell which credentials are available as credentials for this dropdown.
I am trying to create a webhook in BitBucket to trigger a build in Jenkins, but when I enter my Jenkins URL, and I test the connection, I get the error "Unable to connect to the URL specified, check the host and port are correct." I am using the URL http://localhost:8080/bitbucket-hook/ (with the last back slash included) and I can confirm that in Jenkins, my "Jenkins URL" is set to http://localhost:8080/. In Jenkins, I have installed the plugin "BitBucket Server Integration", and under Configure System -> Bitbucket Server Integration, I have connected to the Bitbucket server (and when I test the connection, it says "Jenkins can connect with the Bitbucket Server", so I am pretty sure Jenkins is configured correctly). I don't have credentials set up in Jenkins for the Bitbucket Server configuration, is this necessary even though when I test the connection, it seems to be able to connect? Is my url for the BitBucket webhook correct?? Is there anything else you can think of that I might not have configured correctly so when I test the connection on BitBucket, it will connect properly?
I just ran through a similar setup, to answer to your questions:
yes, I think you will have to use credentials of a user having admin permissions on the repository upon which you want to create the webhook.
Read below, anyway the Webhook URL I got is in the form < jenkins-url >/bitbucket-server-webhook/trigger
The pipeline
According to my experience, the creation of the Webhook is demanded to Jenkins, you don't have to do anything on your own other than creating a new Pipeline object.
Having set the Bitbucket Server Integration configuration up in fact is not enough for the creation of the Webhook, to do that you have to
create a new Pipeline
flag the Build Trigger "Bitbucket Server trigger build after push"
in the Pipeline section, use as Definition "Pipeline Script from SCM" and fill the other fields according to the configuration you have set before.
Point 3 is saying you are retrieving your Pipeline definition from a file stored in Bitbucket itself, you can also customise the name of the file Jenkins is going to look for (by default this should be Jenkinsfile), and use the "Pipeline Syntax" option to get the snippet of code you will use as step in your Jenkinsfile.
Once you have created your Pipeline in Jenkins, the webhook should appear in the right section in your Bitbucket Server repository.
I am trying to trigger jenkins pipeline on gitlab push to branch and tag.
Using Jenkins ver. 2.176.2 and gitlab version 10.7.3-ee.
Although I have supposedly set up the webhooks properly, I do not see the jenkins job being triggered.
I have installed the gitlab plugin for jenkins, and configured the gitlab server, including the Personal Access Token for GitLab APIs access generated in gitlab.
I have defined the webhook (currently requesting trigger on all events). (for testing, ssl verification is off).
When testing the webhook in gitlab, I consistently receive HTTP error 500.
In jenkins pipeline job, I have selected "build when change is pushed to gitlab. gitlab webhook..." - this is the URL I used when defining the webhook in gitlab, under "integrations" section.
When pushing to gitlab, I see no event listed under "integrations -> recent deliveries",
I see no log under jenkins logs "com.dabsquared.gitlabjenkins" logger (set to log level "FINEST".
And lastly, the pipeline job is not triggered as I expected.
Any leads will be very helpful.
Adding printscreen of the Jenkins configuration of the gitlab for reference to the comment I added on possibility this is issue with the personal access token
Jenkins gitlab server configuration
Go to Settings of Gitlab Project -> Integrations and type in the Jenkins Job project url in 'URL'. URL should take either form:
http://JENKINS_URL/project/PROJECT_NAME
http://JENKINS_URL/project/FOLDER/PROJECT_NAME
Notice that the url does not contain "job" within it and instead uses "project".
Make sure under Triggers, you have "Push Events" checked as well if you want the job to trigger whenever someone pushes a commit.
Finally, run a build against your Jenkinsfile first before testing the webhook so Jenkins will pick-up the trigger settings for Gitlab.
