Jenkins Git Integration Beginner Problem

[debugl...@gmail.com]

Here is my build error (it has never worked, I am starting off with jenkins) on my project 'JenkinsCD':

I installed jenkins yesterday and git is already installed (pushing and pulling, version is 1.8.3.1) and I can view jenkins from browser. I am SSH-ing into the server using a username and password and I have created the id_rsa and id_rsa.pub inside of the .ssh folder in var/lib/jenkins/.ssh ; however I required sudo access to create the id_rsa and id_rsa.pub files because I have sudo level but not the specific root account access. Permissions for the two files in .ssh folder are: 

-rw-------. 1 root root 1675 Aug 13 18:13 id_rsa
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root  394 Aug 13 18:13 id_rsa.pub

This appears to be typically of these keys but I believe there may be issues with permissions (I mean look at the stack trace from the build error!) and also I have heard things about creating a jenkins user. Also the git repository is hosted on bitbucket but a local clone of the repo exists as well so if anyone has any advice whatsoever or thinks they know what the problem is I would greatly appreciate any help that you can offer, thanks :)

Btw the linux distribution is CentOS Linux release 7.1.1503 (Core).

thanks again! :)

according to log your job is setup with CVS as SCM

Thanks for your quick response friend!

This is correct, I have passed in my git credentials and repo address for ssh. However I am sensing that this was the incorrect way to go about integrating git - I selected that option because in the jenkins GUI on the Jenkins > MyProject > Configure the only options for SCM were "none", "CVS", "CVS ProjectSet", and "Subversion". Since your post I have downloaded the git plugin, git client plugin, and all bitbucket plugins. Right now (after changing the SCM option to "none") I just passed the trivial build where I run a basic ECHO shell script but don't actually get or use any of my Ruby on Rails code which I am trying to continuously integrate. 

Do you have any idea on how I would go about making a build pull the most recent code on my origin/master branch? My research indicates that a hook through bitbucket may be the most helpful but I am stuggling to figure out what option I change inside of the jenkins GUI to pull from my bitbucket SCM

[nicolas de loof]

first install git plugin, restart, then configure your job SCM with git repo URL and required ssh credentials

Run the build and check it can clone the repo. Setting up bitbucket hook is another story
