I've got a build that was previously working fine on the Jenkins Master node that I'm now trying to execute on the Jenkins slave.
I'm using the Jenkins Mercurial Plugin and pointing to the TortoiseHg installation directory on the slave machine.
The Mercurial repository that I'm using is secured by a self-signed certificate (hosted in IIS).
Working on the machine locally, I can clone the repository without issues (this is necessary to get TortoiseHg to preserve the user's password).
However, I seem to be running into issues getting this to work when the build is executed by Jenkins.
The specific error that I'm getting is listed below :
Building remotely on <slave> in workspace <workspace>
$ S:\Software\TortoiseHg/hg clone --rev default --noupdate https://<repository> <workspace_on_slave>

pywintypes.error: (1312, 'CredRead', 'A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated.')
ERROR: Failed to clone https://<repository>
Can anyone offer suggestions on what I can do to get past this?
Non-Polling Solution: (Useful if you're not doing polling of the repository to trigger builds)
The fix to this turns out to be to manually clone the repository on the slave at the workspace location (where it would normally end up).
It seems that once the repository is available on the slave, it's able to get past the 'A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated.' error.
Polling Solution: (The solution above does not seem to work with the Jenkins polling functionality, so we're left with the solution below).
See How do you specify authentication information for Mercurial as part of Jenkins? (mercurial_keyring)
The only way I was able to figure out how to get the server to remember the password (and work with polling) in my setup was to specify it manually in \mercurial.ini .
NOTE: You may also have to remove the mercurial_keyring line from mercurial.ini. (This disables the keyring extension on the Jenkins server/slave since we're specifying everything manually.)
