Hi

At the moment I'm just evaluating Jenkins so it's running on a Ubuntu
10.04 32-bit VM, installed from packages using the instructions at
https://wiki.jenkins-
ci.org/display/JENKINS/Installing+Jenkins+on+Ubuntu. I'm running my
Python script on a different machine (actually the VM host, which is
running Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit). Python version 2.6.6.

Normally I've been running Jenkins behind an Apache reverse proxy,
though to test this bug I disabled that and accessed it directly via
Winstone (same issue either way).

Jenkins security is configured as "Jenkins user database", "Matrix-based
security".

I'm basically trying to run something like the following script:

j = Jenkins("http://path-to-jenkins/","User","Password";)
j.build_job('job', {'PARAMETER': 'blah'})

I added some debug prints into jenkins_open and the other request
performed by build_job worked fine (the one triggered by job_exists). It
was only the line I quoted in the bug report that failed, and it worked
as soon as I removed the empty string parameter.

Title:
  With authorization, build job doesn't work using POST request

Status in Python API for Jenkins:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I've just stumbled into this project and am trying to use your latest
  version from source control along with Jenkins version 1.420 (the
  Ubuntu package version).

  Using authorization, I get a 403 response to the request in build_job:

          return
  self.jenkins_open(urllib2.Request(self.build_job_url(name, parameters,
  token), ''))

  If I remove the empty data string (which I understand means the
  request is GET rather than POST), everything works fine.

          return
  self.jenkins_open(urllib2.Request(self.build_job_url(name, parameters,
  token)))

  
  Not really sure if the cause for this is a bug in Jenkins or a problem with your script?
