    • Jenkins 1.651 running on Windows Server 2012

      1. I enabled Active Directory Plugin
      2. I enabled Project-based Matrix Authorization Strategy
      3. I gave some users access to log into Jenkins and also give them access to view/build jobs
      4. For one of the users, his login name in Jenkins was in uppercase
      5. The user with the uppercase name was able to log into Jenkins
      6. However, the user was not able to see any jobs that he was given access to build

      To Fix

      1. I went into the job configuration and under "Enable project-based security" I remove the uppercase username from the job
      2. I added the user again, this time making the username lowercase and assign the same permission as before to the user
      3. The user logged in and was able to see and build the job

      Seems like a case-sensitivity issue to me...

          Experiencing this issue in 1.625.2. The user/group has the "good" icon next to it on the matrix, which threw us for awhile since it appeared to be finding the group, versus the "bad" icon for invalid groups. Changing case solved it, but it was not at all obvious that was the issue.

          I had authentication configured for Jenkins built-in database and Project-based matrix authorization strategy. I experienced the same issue outlined here.

          The original report mentions the AD plugin, which is a known issue. It has been fixed in JENKINS-22247 and spinn-offs in plugins. Please reopen if the problem still occurs
