How do I use AWS credentials with Jenkins to deploy to Elastic Beanstalk?

Question

I have entered AWS credentials in Jenkins at /credentials , however they do not show up in the drop down list for the Post Build steps in the AWS Elastic Beanstalk plugin.

If I click Validate Credentials, I get this strange error.

Failure com.amazonaws.SdkClientException: Unable to load AWS credentials from any provider in the chain: [EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider: Unable to load AWS credentials from environment variables (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID (or AWS_ACCESS_KEY) and AWS_SECRET_KEY (or AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY)), SystemPropertiesCredentialsProvider: Unable to load AWS credentials from Java system properties (aws.accessKeyId and aws.secretKey), com.amazonaws.auth.profile.ProfileCredentialsProvider@5c932b96: profile file cannot be null, com.amazonaws.auth.EC2ContainerCredentialsProviderWrapper@32abba7: The requested metadata is not found at http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/] at com.amazonaws.auth.AWSCredentialsProviderChain.getCredentials(AWSCredentialsProviderChain.java:136)

I don't know where it got that IP address. When I search for that IP in the Jenkins directory, I turn up with

-bash-4.2$ grep -r 169.254.169.254 *
plugins/ec2/AMI-Scripts/ubuntu-init.py:conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("169.254.169.254")

There are actually 2 different Amazon Elastic Beanstalk plugins.

• AWSEB Deployment Plugin , v 0.3.19, Aldrin Leal
• AWS Beanstalk Publisher Plugin , v 1.7.4, David Tanner

Neither of them work. Neither will display the credentials in the drop down list. Since updating Jenkins, I am unable to even show "Deploy to Elastic Beanstalk" as a post-build step for the first one (v0.3.19) even though it is the only one installed.

For the 2nd plugin (v1.7.4), I see this screen shot:

When I fill in what I can, and run it, it gives the error

I tried to add an S3 sub-task to the Elastic Beanstalk deployment, but it failed with an exception.

Answer 1

Jenkins is hopelessly out of date and unmaintained. I added the Post Build Task plugin, installed eb tool as jenkins user, ran eb init in the job directory, edited .elasticbeanstalk/config.yml to add the lines

deploy:
  artifact: target/AppName-Sprint5-SNAPSHOT-bin.zip

Then entered in the shell command to deploy the build.

/var/lib/jenkins/.local/bin/eb deploy -l sprint5-${BUILD_NUMBER}

对于 Elastic beanstalk 插件，配置 AWS 密钥的正确位置是 Jenkins Master configure
