getPusher() returns null in call to getPusher()

I have a github enterprise installation. I'm trying to get Jenkins connected to it. When I set up a repo and turn on 'GitHub hook trigger for GITScm polling', I see the hook get created in my repo, however it has a Red Triangle icon. Hovering over it says 'Invalid HTTP Reponse: 0'.

When I look at the Jenkins log, I see github tried to post an event, but I see the following error:

Interestingly enough, if I take the same payload and put it in a JSON, I can post the even manually using curl: $ curl -X POST --header "Content-Type: application/json" --header "X-GitHub-Event: push" -d @data.json http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:8080/github-webhook/ -v

Looking at the code in org.jenkinsci.plugins.github.webhook.subscriber.DefaultPushGHEventSubscriber.onEvent(DefaultPushGHEventSubscriber.java:77), it looks like the call to getPusher is null.

In deed, when I put the json in a unit test, getPusher returns null.
