I was able to see standard Jenkins dashboard (configuration dashboard). Suddenly after a couple of logins, the manage Jenkins option is gone. All that I see is \People
Build History
Credentials
I am not able to spin builds or make changes. How can I make sure that all those options come back. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling as well. Appreciate your response.

I'm trying to use JIRA Trigger Jenkins plugin. I've read maybe all similar issues but can't understand why it doesn't work.
I want to build when an issue status changed. I troubleshooted but it didn't help me. My web hook works I checked it as it shows in documentation, the plugin for Jenkins is installed, firewall checked (I have whitelisted 3 Jira cloud IPs for Jenkins instance on AWS), ssl checks on Jenkins passes. Also I configured logs on Jenkins from Jira, but can't get anything.
In trigger configuration I inserted my Jira user's email (my-email#gmail.com) as user and password. The user has administrator privileges. What else can be wrong? Please any idea.
We detached one of our main collections and it failed to detach so we restarted it and everything appeared to be fine. But we found this morning that the Build pipelines are not picking up new builds. The build servers are communicating and showing online but nothing is queuing. Anyone ever experience this during a detach/reattach process?
Update
Customer quiesced and unquiesced TFS and that fixed the pipeline issues.
Detach/reattach collection usually will not effect build related.
First, suggest you to take a look at Event View if there are some useful logs for troubleshooting.
If you are using vNext build, check the agent pool and agents which should all be green.
Make sure in your build definition, you have selected the right agent queue. Also try to create an empty build definition with no build task to see if the issue is related to the definition. And also restart your agent service on your TFS server.
Also check if the service Visual Studio Team Foundation Background Job Agent is running. If not, start it manually and try the build again.
Note: The service is running in TFS server, not build server.
For logs to troubleshooting , check the event view and the log in \agent_diag on build agent to see whether there are some useful information.
If you still get this issue, then deploy and configure a totally new build agent. This will help to narrow down the issue.
I have a repository that I can create a release for. I have jenkins setup and since the jenkins is hosted inside a firewall that restricts any communication from outside the network, github-webhook doesnt work. Also getting the reverse proxy to work is a bit of a challenge for me. I understand that the github webhook sends out a json payload and I can qualify it based on release. But as I previously mentioned, this won't work because jenkins and github cannot talk with each other.
Therefore, I tried this solution; Filtering the branches or tags that the jenkins will build on. The following are the things I tried and they all didnt work. Everytime I run a build, jenkins just builds it.
I also tried the below mentioned regex,
:refs\/tags\/(\d+\.\d+\.\d+)
I also tried [0-9] instead of d. It build it every single time.
Am I missing something ? Or is that how jenkins work ? Even though we qualify the builds to run only on certain tags or releases, if we click on build now, it just runs it every single time ?
My requirement is very simple. I want jenkins build to run only on the release I created even if the release is 'n' commits behind the master. How can I achieve this ?
I'm trying to configure a local installation of Jenkins to review uploaded changes on Gerrit. So far, I've gotten Jenkins to detect uploaded changes and build them (using Gerrit Trigger). However, while the build concludes successfully on Jenkins, it doesn't post any reviews on Gerrit, even though it is configured to do so. Interestingly, in Gerrit change history, I can see Jenkins having started a build:
Jenkins Patch Set 1: Build Started http://localhost:8080/job/TestProject/70/
but that's it. No results are shown after this, like successful conclusion of the build etc. Since I can see the build started result, I'm assuming I've configured the review settings correctly, but something else is causing a hold up. I've checked in the Gerrit error_log file and it doesn't show any errors. What maybe the issue?
By the way I've been able to verify/review the code as jenkins using the command line.
To make code verification possible, you have to go through the following steps:
Allow label “Verified” on Gerrit server (also see here or here);
Read this and make sure your job configured properly, because you will not build latest changesets instead;
Give access to labels Code-Review and Verified in your Gerrit project for user Jenkins;
I was able to resolve this by adding the 'Verified Label' to the Gerrit Server. The version of Gerrit I used (2.11.3) explicitly asks you to install the Verified Label, and the default option is set at No and as a result I didn't install it. I simply reinstalled my Gerrit, this time choosing Yes on Install Verified Label. If you're facing this issue, simply reinstall your Gerrit. If re-installation is not an option, read this:
http://blog.bruin.sg/2013/04/how-to-edit-the-project-config-for-all-projects-in-gerrit/
Some basic information can be found also in Jenkins plugin
Create the profile through in Gerrit web interface for your Jenkins user, and set up a SSH key for that user.
Gerrit web interface > Admin > Groups > Non-Interactive Users > Add your jenkins user.
Admin > Projects > ... > Access > Edit
Reference: refs/*
Read: ALLOW for Non-Interactive Users
Reference: refs/heads/*
Label Code-Review: -1, +1 for Non-Interactive Users
Label Verified: -1, +1 for Non-Interactive Users
I'm completely stuck with Gerrit Trigger install. I installed Jenkins ver. 1.482 with the Gerrit Trigger (v2.6.0) plugin. I'm not able to configure it.
I installed a test gerrit server (v2.4.2). I have an admin user. I tried to configure Gerrit Trigger to use this access to build patches (this is a test system, I didn't want to bother to add real users).
In Gerrit Trigger options I configured gerrit access. Test connection button says conection is ok. Although I get The connection to Gerrit is not started yet. Check the Gerrit URL in the settings. warning on the top. I also tried to push restart at the bottom.
I've read documentation on both Hudson and Jenkins page of the plugin. I'm still unable to configure the plugin.
Do you have any idea what's wrong?
Probably Click the button to Save after testing, this is common mistake that you forget to save it !! I met this several times
See more explanation in https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Gerrit+Trigger
Otherwise it is not clear what's your problem since this is a normal case.
