Sorry, I may have mis-led you. It worked for executing from shell… But for GIT SCM pulling, it does require credential to be set.

I was using an API key and my user name (rather than my actual password). The username / API key pair worked fine from command line git (embedded in the URL in plaintext) and from a Jenkins credential, but did not work when embedded as plaintext in the URL in the Jenkins job. Unfortunately, I can't explain why my results are so different from yours.

Worked like a charm. Kevin, I agree it would have been helfpul if the plugin upgraded the URLs for you. Another nice-to-have would be for the plugin to lok for a basic auth formatted URL on pull failure and generate a more informative error message.

I duplicated the bug you're describing. A GitHub URL of the form https://username:passw...@github.com/github_username/github_repository does not clone with the current version of the git client plugin (1.8.0) and the current version of the git plugin (2.2.0). If I take that same username and password and place them in a credential inside Jenkins, then reference that credential from the job definition, it works. Your workaround is to create a credential which includes that user name and password, then reference that credential from the Jenkins job definition. I think what you've found is a bug in the git plugin, since I think it should continue to support repository URL's which it supported before. However, since there is a work around, and since the work around has the benefit that it hides your user name and access token so they are no longer visible in the console log, I don't expect that bug will be fixed very soon. You could submit a bug report to https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/ so that the problem can be tracked.

At least, that seems likely based on what you are reporting. It's certainly not a Jenkins core issue. ----- Original Message ----- From: jenkins...@googlegroups.com<mailto:jenkins...@googlegroups.com> To: jenkins...@googlegroups.com<mailto:jenkins...@googlegroups.com> At: Apr 11 2014 14:16:37 Hi, I have been using a GitHub personal access token and basic authentication to pull from private GitHub repos from Jenkins. I use the GitHub Plugin, and then for each project, the GitHub Project and Git Repository URL settings are the same, with a format of: https://<user>:<access_token>@github.com/<http://github.com/><account>/<repo>/. This has been working fine for months, until this past Wednesday. Now whenever I build I get an 'Invalid username or password' error (see below). I recreated the GitHub access token, which didn't fix the problem. I'm think the issue is on the Jenkins side, since I can use the same URL on the command-line to clone the repo, and it works fine. I upgraded Jenkins to 1.558, but then reverted back to 1.555, thinking the upgrade could have caused the problem. I'm still stuck without being able to pull from GitHub though.
