enabling write access on the folder with the command sudo chmod -R g+w clients.changing ownership of the output folder to the www-data group with the command sudo chown -R :www-data clients.

adding Jenkins to a group, in our case, the www-data group.

As you might have guessed we ran into this problem and manage to fix this by: SSH into your server and check the permissions of you output folder. It may mean that Jenkins does not have the right permissions to write to the folder and cannot deploy the files. Hopefully you will see the newly-deployed files but.Wait, the build failed! I got a FileException error. Check the deployment folder you set up on the server. This should then trigger a new build in -Output. Trigger a build from your client-project. Notice that we set set our location to "var/Don't do what we did and set the path using an http address(!). Specify the folder or files you want copied and set the location path. Because you have installed the Copy Artifact plugin you should see an option called ‘copy artifacts from another project’ in the drop down menu.

Go to "-Output" > configure and add a new build step. Artifact Registry Concepts The artifact path is a user-defined path that describes the location of the artifact in the repository.

Next you need to install the Copy Artifact plugin in the Manage Plugins section of Jenkins. Next add another post-build action ‘Build other project’ and enter the name of the build item you created earlier.

Note, I'll assume you have a client project set up on Jenkins, and it is connected to your version control system. Luckily, a pairing session with Codurance Craftsman Samir pointed us in the right direction we thought we would set out our process below in case any other Jenkins newbies got stuck like we did. Frantic Googling had us going around in circles. Examples are a collection of compiled Java classes or a Java application packaged in a Java archive, a Web application as a directory structure or a Web application archive, and so on.

However we got more than a little stumped when it came to deploying those assets to a new location on the server. An artifact is an assembly of your project assets that you put together to test, deploy, or distribute your software solution or its part. We then wanted to create a way for the client to be able to download their tested application. Thanks to an excellent tutorial from Jeff Shantz, it ended up being a relatively straight forward task. This week, one of our tasks was to set up Jenkins on a new server then add a client’s project for building and testing. Both Amir and I have just recently started at Codurance as apprentices.
