1 year ago Hi @Ganonink
When I look at the code that is causing the NPE it is simply trying to retrieve the credentials by ID. The only way for me to reproduce this behaviour is by selecting a credential record in the plugin configuration, then delete the credential record in Jenkin's main configuration and then hit the test connection button. It will produce exactly the same stacktrace as you have because it cannot find credentials with the configured ID. So my assumption is that something is not in sync with the available credentials and the plugin's configuration.
Can you please try the following.
- In the plugin configuration for the "Credentials" field please select the "-none-" entry. This should reset the stored credentials ID.
- Click the "Apply" button
- Then select the correct entry for credentials again.
- Click the "Apply" button again
- Click on "Test Connection"
If this doesn't solve your issue then please try a slightly different approach.
- Create a new entry for username/password credentials and make sure to give it an explicit and unique ID as well.
- Then repeat the previous steps and select the newly created entry.
Please let me know if this helps.
Cheers Frieder

I was already in contact with Cloudbees support. They double checked our configuration and cannot explain why this doesn`t work. The error must be in the plugin itself.
We use official certificates, but I also tried to disable the certificate check, which didn`t help. A direct connection with curl to the Artifactory server is possible. Username/password is correct. We use these credentials already in other jobs to download artifacts. A proxy server in the Plugin Manager is configured, but the Artifactory server, which is reachable without a proxy, is in the no_proxy list.
It feels like the plugin expects some additional configuration.
