ERROR: Problem fetching from origin ... : fatal: Authentication failed

[jserup]

I am running Jenkins ver. 1.466.1 on an Ubuntu machine with "Jenkins GIT
plugin 1.1.23".

Some of the jobs fetches changes from a git repository on another ubuntu
machine (running git version 1.7.10) using the following format under
"Source code management" in the job configuration:

https://jenkins:pass@host/.../test.git

These jobs run hourly even though there has been no src change. But now and
then (approx once every 10th build) jenkins gives this error and the build
fails:



Fetching changes from 1 remote Git repository
Fetching upstream changes from https://jenkins:pass@host/....git

I am considering to follow the advice given below but would like to hear if
anyone has experienced the same strange behaviour?
