GitLAB Integration

[Emory Penney]

Hi,

I'm trying to get GitLab (https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/GitLab+Plugin) connected to my GitLab EE server (8.16.2-ee).  It was working fine until recently.  We have two GitLab projects which trigger Jenkins jobs.  One of them had never worked, for some reason Jenkins gave us errors like this:

Failed to update Gitlab commit status for project '38': HTTP 403 Forbidden

The automation user was correctly configured as a "Developer" in GitLab.  I tried regenerating the user's auth token and updating it in Jenkins now none of our GitLab projects work, we get errors like this:

I've done a bit of Googling and saw this may have to do with the version of Java we're running, we have a self-signed certificate on our GitLab server.  I updated us from OpenJDK7 to Oracle JDK8 but there has been no change.  Clicking on "Test Connection" in the GitLab config page gets us:

Client error: Remote host closed connection during handshake Any idea how to get this working?

For future Googlers who may stumble into this post: Upgrading to Ubuntu 16.04 fixed this issue for me.  Looks like the latest somebody in the GitLab/GitLabPlugin/OracleJDK/Jenkins 2.32 stack doesn't play well with Ubuntu 14.04.
