Bitbucket Webhooks Troubleshooting

Symptoms

  • Jobs are not automatically triggered when a changes are pushed to Bitbucket

Diagnostic/Treatment

  • Pre-condition: Jenkins (resp. Bitbucket) can reach out to Bitbucket (resp. Jenkins)

Non-Multibranch

In Jenkins for non-multibranch jobs, you are either using the Git Plugin or the Bitbucket Plugin.

Git Plugin

1) Endpoint

This applies to repository configured with a hook to the endpoint $JENKINS_URL/git/notifyCommit

2) Add-on (for Bitbucket Server)

This endpoint is used by the add-on Webhook to Jenkins for Bitbucket in Bitbucket Server:

To troubleshoot request processing on that endpoint, please add a logger to the following class:

Bitbucket Plugin

1) Endpoint

This applies to Bitbucket repositories configured with a hook to the endpoint $JENKINS_URL/bitbucket-hook/.

2) Add-on (for Bitbucket Server)

There are currently some issues using the to process payload from Bitbucket Server which is captured in JENKINS-28877

Bitbucket Plugin integrates with Bitbucket Server via the add-on Bitbucket Server Web Post Hooks Plugin in Bitbucket server:

Multibranch

In Jenkins, for multibranch jobs, you should be using the Bitbucket Branch Source Plugin.

1) Endpoint

This applies to repositories configured with a hook to the endpoint $JENKINS_URL/bitbucket-scmsource-hook/notify/.

2) Add-on (for Bitbucket Server)

Bitbucket Branch Source Plugin integrates with Bitbucket Server via the add-on Post Webhooks for Bitbucket in Bitbucket server:

5) Indexing Logs

Any event received on this endpoint should trigger a Branch indexing. But only the logs of the last branch indexing are persisted. If an issue seems intermittent and it is difficult to catch the Branch Indexing that exposes it. In order to catch the issue, you can set the system property com.cloudbees.hudson.plugins.folder.computed.FolderComputation.BACKUP_LOG_COUNT to for example 10 in order to keep the logs of the last 10 branch indexing.

You can set this property on startup by adding it to Jenkins Java arguments or run the following Groovy script in Manage Jenkins > Script Console:

System.setProperty('com.cloudbees.hudson.plugins.folder.computed.FolderComputation.BACKUP_LOG_COUNT','10')

The branch indexing files are located in the File System in $JENKINS_HOME/jobs/<pathToMultibranch>/indexing/*
The folder computation files are located in the File System in $JENKINS_HOME/jobs/<pathToMultibranch>/computation/*

Troubleshooting Further

If for some reason the request is not received by Jenkins and improved logging did not help, you can troubleshoot this even further by enabling Access Logging for Jenkins.

    For the multibranch example above that mentions

    This applies to repositories configured with a hook to the endpoint $JENKINS_URL/bitbucket-scmsource-hook/notify/

    Does the URL have to end in /bitbucket-scmsource-hook/notify/ or is the bitbucket-scmsource-hook supposed to be a variable like $JENKINS_URL?
