jenkins artifactory plugin: Target Repository is empty

Question

I am new to Jenkins aand Artifactory. I am using Artifactory 3.0.4 and Jenkins 1.535 and I try to create a free-style software project. Need to deploy the artifact into Artifactory repository by Jenkins. I use default user id and pwd for artifactory. Both Artifactory and Jenkins run as window service with default local system account.

I select Generic-Artifactory Integration, and the Artifactory server is set correctly. But Target Repository is empty.

Something is wrong with my settings.

Appreciate any help.

Answer 1

It was fetched by Artifactory Jenkins plugin directly in back-end ！！

Firstly, in system configuration, the artifactory server shall be put into url, and click the Test Connection, it shall return something like "Found Artifactory 3.0.3". If this doesn't work, you need check user/passwd and network connection. You can try in command line in that server

Command looks like

curl -uadmin:password http://localhost:8081/artifactory/api/repositories?type=local

Secondly in the job, you need to save and open the configuration again, it will trigger the plugin to fetch the list again.

Answer 2

My guess will be you didn't define the patterns of artifacts to be deployed to Artifactory. For example, if you wish to upload all the zip files, produced by your build to zips directory, you should add something like out/*.zip=>zips. The help on the Edit Published Artifacts textfield is very informative.
