with error as "Access Denied is missing the Overall/Read permission jenkins windows". In such case, Please retain the existing instance, have a new jenkins install on someother machine or VM. Copy the config. xml from Jenkins_Home and replace it with config.
This is how I resolved the authentication problem:
Edit config.xml
file, e.g.
sudo vi /var/lib/jenkins/config.xml
Change useSecurity
element's value to false
, e.g.
<useSecurity>false</useSecurity>
Remove authorizationStrategy
block
Restart Jenkins: /etc/init.d/jenkins restart
.
Have you followed this step, from the plugin page?
Control user authorization (i.e. who is allowed to see the jobs and build them) using the Github Commiter Authorization Strategy
Also, make sure you actually allow authenticated users to access Jenkins
authenticated
I had the same problem with "... is missing the Overall/Read permission" on Jenkins (1.651.2) with activated Credentials Plugin.
But it was my own failure: I only configured the user on project side (by credential plugin) but missed to configure the global security.
So I fixed it by selecting:
Jenkins -> Manage Jenkins -> Configure Global Security
And did setup missing global settings (or project matrix based one)
reset from <useSecurity>true</useSecurity>
to <useSecurity>false</useSecurity>
in config.xml and set the permission again.
