      We've some jobs which check for repo changes only without any build step. They are used to trigger some downstream jobs.

      But instead of triggering the jobs they fire this NPE:

      First time build. Skipping changelog.
Warning: you have no plugins providing access control for builds, so falling back to legacy behavior of permitting any downstream builds to be triggered

      There are a lot of JENKINS-Issues related to similar problems. But all of them are resolved fixed, cannot reproduce, or duplicated. So this seems to be a new problem.

          This looks a lot like JENKINS-23191. Make sure the downstream project (the one with the trigger defined) has one of the result options selected.
