jenkins::job does not work when authentication is enabled

[Xylakant]

the auth parameter is ignored for jenkins::cli::cmd which is used by jenkins::job::present.

[v1v]

I don't know if this is related to. But I've got some issues too when I run the below configuration:

# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
class jenkins_king::ess_jobs ()  {
  jenkins::job { 'ess_dolores':
    config => template('jenkins_king/ess_dolores-job.xml.erb'),
  }
}

I've already tried with two different approaches:

• Enable anonymous job generation. It works. But I cannot use that configuration at all. :(
• Using the ssh key file: https://github.com/jenkinsci/puppet-jenkins#cli-helper But it didn't work.

Let me know if you need further details.

Thanks.
