[SOLVED] Jenkins Maven Release with GIT

Jenkins Maven Release with GIT

I got Jenkins set up with SSH connection to Git, using SSH agent and trying to set up a job, which would do Maven Release build. The job is executing following commands

-Dresume=false release:prepare release:perform  
-Dresume=false -DdryRun=true release:prepare

During deployment with maven-deploy-plugin I run into error,

[INFO] [INFO]

I am not sure why is it saying cannot access and how is it trying to access. As I am aware wagon will be using ssh, so there should not be a problem.

My pom.xml

    <build>
         <extensions>
            <extension>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.wagon</groupId>
                <artifactId>wagon-ssh</artifactId>
                <version>2.4</version>
            </extension>
         </extensions>
    </build>

    <scm>
        <connection>scm:git:git@giturl:repo</connection>
        <developerConnection>scm:git:git@giturl:repo</developerConnection>
        <url>git@giturl:repo</url>  
        <tag>HEAD</tag>
    </scm>

    <distributionManagement>
      <repository>
        <id>release</id>
        <url>git@giturl:repo</url>
      </repository>

Solution

You are trying to deploy the released artifact to a GIT repository. Artifacts are deployed to a central repository such as Artifactory or Nexus, usually by means of HTTP (POST) unless you specify something else.

If you want to deploy using SSH, this link will explain how it's done.
