I am trying to build a jenkins job using the library python-jenkins.
Now this works fine if I try it with a normal data file using the command:
j.build_job('test', {'param1' : filepath})
Here j is the Jenkins instance I use for my server and filepath is the path of the file which is to be passed as the parameter. This works fine. But when I try this for a patch file to be passed as a parameter, it shows the following error message.
JenkinsException: Error in request. Possibly authentication failed [500]: Server Error
I have installed the Patch parameter plugin in Jenkins and the job is already configured to take a patch file as a parameter just like it was configured for a normal file. Then why does this error message appear? Please help.
