I have a series I pushed yesterday that hasn't gotten any attention from Hudson:

Any ideas why?

sometimes the ssh connection used by the gerrit-trigger plugin stops working.

Hudson admins can restart it by clicking a button under "Manage Hudson > Gerrit Trigger".

Newer versions of the gerrit-trigger plugin available for Jenkins have a

watchdog thread which auto-restarts the connection in case there are no stream events

for a configurable time period.

The latest gerrit-trigger version available for Jenkins is 2.14.0

https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Gerrit+Trigger

the latest one available for Hudson is 2.5.3-h-2

http://wiki.hudson-ci.org/display/HUDSON/Gerrit+Trigger

on the JGit Hudson 2.5.3-h-1 is installed.

I filed

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=472322

to request a modern gerrit-trigger version for Hudson

Alternatively we could raise more voices for Jenkins on

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=336262

You can manually (re-)trigger a build for voting jobs here

https://hudson.eclipse.org/jgit/gerrit_manual_trigger/

enter a Gerrit query to find your change, select the patchset you want to build and click

"Trigger Selected".
