Description Dani Megert

2011-10-31 09:48:13 EDT

Not sure whether 'Git' is the right component but couldn't find one for Gerrit.

Take a look at http://egit.eclipse.org/r/#change,4425. There, my proposed change got marked with a -1 from Hudson since the build failed. I was 100% sure that this was not caused by my fix but found no way to re-run the build. The Hudson message which rejects the change should contain a link that allows me to re-run the tests.

NOTE:
1. I tried the 'Build Now' button on
   https://hudson.eclipse.org/sandbox/job/egit.gerrit/1835/
   ==> shows a hover "Build scheduled", but nothing ever happens afterwards

2. I try to follow http://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/Contributor_Guide#To_trigger_Hudson_build_for_a_change

   ==> 	
Access Denied

dmegert is missing the ManualTrigger permission

Not sure what I need to do to get this.

I don't see your id in the job config for Egit.  Re-assigning to the Egit project.

-M.

Dani, if logged in, there is a button "Retrigger" in the web ui (on the same build, not job) to retrigger this build with the same parameters (means the same gerrit branch).

Sorry, I can't see it. Or am I on the wrong web page (see attached screenshot)?

Interesting. I see the gerrit trigger action. Might be only available for people with rights on this job.

Matthias, I think it would make sense to that at least Eclipse committers can retrigger the job if we really don't want to let all contributors retrigger it. Thoughts?

this makes sense, any clue what's the group containing all committers ?

Dani: I granted build permissions to you, so now you should be able to retrigger failed builds

I see the link now. Thanks Matthias!

We will not grant build permissions to all committers as this is really a big group, instead to those who explicitly ask for that.
