ReplyDeleteHow Github will talk to jenkins-URL/github-webhook link ?
ReplyDeleteIn my case I am using enterprise github and jenkins is also behind firewall. As soon as I submit webhook and initial ping payload trigger it fails with "We couldn't deliver this payload : timed out"
Hi @Raj@work! I have the same problem. Could you solve it?
DeleteProblem solved by opening firewall between github enterprise server and Jenkins server.Along with that there is github Admin managed enterprise server settings to allow connection with a host without using Proxy, something like NO_PROXY, just added our Jenkins server host. Problem solved.
