Deploy Files after build jenkins - jenkins

I was abled to build with jenkins on a Build Server and was able to get the publish files on local.
However, I am unable to deploy these to a diferrent application server when I specify the path '\192.168.1.51\MyPublishedFiles' in the publish profile.
This is probably because the app server uses login credentials.
I have the login credentials but cannot find a plugin which can help me copy the files to another server.
What strategy / Plugin can I use do to the same ?

Users cannot deploy to Nexus 3 using maven, only using the UI

I am writing instructions on how to set up Travis CI to deploy to our local Nexus 3 maven repository. I am testing my own instructions to make sure everything works. I have discovered that I cannot upload any artifacts using maven unless I use administrator credentials. As a regular user, I can upload using the provided web UI, but not maven.
All the users have full admin rights over the hosted repositories as well as the nx-component-upload privilege which enables the UI upload.
I must be missing something. The error message I get when running maven deploy is:
org.apache.maven.shared.transfer.artifact.deploy.ArtifactDeployerException: Failed to deploy artifacts: Could not transfer artifact nz.org.riskscape:rsum_api:jar:1.0 from/to juglab-release (https://dais-maven/repository/juglab-release/): Failed to transfer file https://dais-maven/repository/juglab-release/nz/org/riskscape/rsum_api/1.0/rsum_api-1.0.jar with status code 401
Thanx in advance for any help
I finally got it to work. The problem was in the settings file, the username had been misstyped.

Azure web app publish with Visual Studio - not including all files

I have an MVC project being published to Azure from Visual Studio as a web app. In the solution I have a project set up as a "plugin" which is used by the web application and installed using Unity DI. Locally this works but when I publish to azure the plugin files aren't being deployed. This is how my solution and project structure is setup:
Solution MyProject
>nuget
>...
>Plugins
>Plugin.Widget.GoogleAnalytics
>MyProject.Web
>Properties
>References
>...
>Plugins
>bin
>Plugin.Widget.GoogleAnalytics (excluded from project but copied to this directory after project is built above)
>Views
>...
Web.config
Running locally if I delete Solution MyProject/MyProject.Web/Plugins/Plugin.Widget.GoogleAnalytics after is compiled the plugin doesn't appear. If I copy the contents of Solution MyProject/Plugins/Plugin.Widget.GoogleAnalytics/bin back into Solution MyProject/MyProject.Web/Plugins/Plugin.Widget.GoogleAnalytics, the plugin reappears.
The problem is, when I publish to my azure web app, it doesn't include Solution MyProject/MyProject.Web/Plugins/Plugin.Widget.GoogleAnalytics. If I FTP that directory up from my computer is still doesn't load it after restarting the app.
I've tried to include Solution MyProject/MyProject.Web/Plugins/Plugin.Widget.GoogleAnalytics in the project but it causes compilation problems since it's supposed to be added by DI and it also doesn't work after publish.
Is there a way to include the necessary files (not included in the project) during a publish so what works locally will work on azure? Or is there another way to go about this.
If I don't check the option on publish to Remove additional files at destination it usually throws this error when the site tries to load:
Method not found: 'Microsoft.Practices.Unity.IUnityContainer MyProject.Core.ContainerManager.GetConfiguredContainer()'
I've tried to debug that but it's very difficult since it only happens on the azure web app.
I found this question but it didn't give any information for this issues.
EDIT
I was able to get the plugin to work on azure by following these steps.
1) Run in dev environment locally in Debug mode.
2) Publish to azure as debug build.
3) FTP web application plugin directory to azure.
4) Restart azure app. It runs in azure but it's a debug build.
5) Publish from local dev environment as release build.
After this, I was able to publish as release build and check Remove additional files at destination. This removes the plugins in azure. Then I FTP'd the web application plugin directory to azure and start and stop web app and it works. Maybe I can take the debug steps out of this but this is working now.
Heinrich,
Can you please try this below step and see it works.
Make sure you set the build action to Content and they will get deployed.
Try deploying in release mode.
Hope it helps.

Unable to configure a non java project on Jenkins

I have a non-Java project for which I want to automate the build through jenkins.
I have create a job with free Style type. Then I have checked out the SVN repository to my local machine. For testing purposes, I want to first build the project locally.
I have Repository URL : file:///C:/MyProject/.
I get an error: Unable to access file:///C:/MyProject : svn: E180001: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL.
Also I tried with credentials, but am still getting same error.
Note: credentials I have given are the ones which I use to login to my local machine.
Please assists.

How to automatically login to Jenkins on Active Directory?

I have an Active Directory plugin installed that allows logging in to Jenkins portal with my directory credentials by typing them in on the Login page.
But is there a way to automatically log in users if they are on a domain-joined machine? (Obviously, given the browser is configured to allow providing credentials to the site.)
There's a thread on Jenkins Dev group in which a guy mentions that he developed an SSO plugin that worked for him on Windows. He posted it on GitHub under name NegotiateSSO.
First you need to build it to get the hpi file. (Clone the project to your machine, cd into the directory and run mvn (Maven) in it).
The problem is that when I tried to install it, it broke my Jenkins configuration section/page. There's an exception happening inside the plugin that breaks the entire page.
So it didn't work for me, but hopefully it will get fixed at some point and we'll be able to use it.

Cloud I access builds directory from Jenkins/Hudson?

I use Jenkins to run Clover, I can see the HTML report on Jenkins' web GUI, but I also want to download clover.pdf. It's created under workspace directory (only newest version) and builds directory like Jenkins\jobs\Job_test\builds\2013-02-19_17-12-25.
Is there any solution to access Jenkins\jobs\Job_test\builds\2013-02-19_17-12-25 from web ?
Archive the artifact that you require. All the archived artifacts will be stored in Jenkins server and can be accessed from web.
The link to the artifact will look like below
/jenkins/view/Test/job/jobname/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/path/to/mypdf.pdf
This can be achieved though the post build step "archive the artifacts":
