I meet the same bug, my jenkins version is 1.580.  When build a job,
jenkins return 405.

I look up the REST API doc of jenkins, it need us to send 'POST' request to the url 'http://{host}/job/{job_name}/build' to trigger a job.
I tried below hack to work around this bug. Hoping this can do some help, if I can provide more information, please let me know. :)

Title:
  build_job with parameters fails since POST is not used.

Status in Python API for Jenkins:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Jenkins requires a POST when a job URL has parameters.  Since python-
  jenkins does not pass urllib2.urlopen a data value a GET is used
  instead.  This results in a failure and the Jenkins error page is
  returned.

  To reproduce this bug:

  - Create a job with parameters.
  - In ipython:
  import jenkins
  j = jenkins.Jenkins(url)
  j.build_job(job_name, {param : value})

  This will fail.
