Am I using "Send files or execute commands over SSH" righ

[leojhartiv]

I'm trying to user the "Send files or execute commands over SSH" plugin in order to execute some shell scripts on a solaris server, but I keep receiving the following error when testing my setup or using the plugin in a job:

14:25:59  $ $ SSH: Connecting from host [local-host]
14:25:59  SSH: Connecting with configuration [remoteuser@remoteserver] ...
14:25:59  SSH: Creating session: username [cfessat1], hostname [remoteserver], port [22]
14:25:59  SSH: Connecting session ...
14:26:00  ERROR: Exception when publishing, exception message [Failed to connect session for config [remoteuser@remoteserver]. Message [Auth fail]]
14:26:00  Build step 'Send files or execute commands over SSH' changed build result to UNSTABLE

Here's what I've done:

1. Navigated to http://.../jenkins/configure
2. Scrolled down to the SSH configuration section.
3. Set the following values:
1. Passphrase: <empty>
2. Path to key: <empty>
3. Key: <empty>
4. Disable exec: unchecked
4. Clicked Add
   
5. Set the following values under the added server:
1. Name: remoteuser@remoteserver
2. Hostname: remoteserver
3. Username: remoteuser
4. Remote Directory: <empty>
6. Clicked Advanced
7. Checked "Use password authentication..." on
   
8. Set the following advanced values:
1. Passphrase/Password: <the password for remoteuser>
2. Path to key: <empty>
3. Key: <empty>
4. Port: 22
5. Timeout: 300000
6. Disable exec: <unchecked>

I click "Test Configuration" and get:

Failed to connect or change directory

jenkins.plugins.publish_over.BapPublisherException: Failed to connect session for config [cfessat1@cfesstbos1]. Message [Auth fail]

I am able to connect to the above server via putty:

localserver:localuser[]ssh -l remoteuser remoteserver

remoteserver:remoteuser[]

 Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Leo,

No, you are doing everything right!

I executed a major refactor of the views in the last release, and have
introduced a bug where the overriden password/passphrase is not picked
up.

I should have a new release in the next few hours. You will need to
configure the password again (everything else will be fine) after
upgrading the plugin.

Many appologies,

Bap.

No apologies necessary! Grateful for the plugin!

ERROR: Exception when publishing, exception message [Could not create a date format from [/var/www/html/jenkins/] exception message [Illegal pattern character 'v']]

How to solve this error in jenkins.
