Is there a configuration setting to automatically display jenkins console output

When I manually execute a jenkins job, it would save an annoying step if, upon submitting the build button, the next screen was the console output and not the project page.

Is there a configuration setting that allows this to happen?

No native option of that kind I guess. Recent jenkins builds allow a shorter way to access console output - just click on the gray/blue point left to the currently running build:

One click access to Console output If you still think one click is annoying extra step, then next option I'd suggest is using jenkins CLI. It needs some more one-time effort though.

  1. Have java installed on your workstation
  2. Download jenkins-cli.jar from http://your jenkins host/jnlpJars/jenkins-cli.jar

Then you can start builds like that:

java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://jenkins-url  build buildname  -w -s -v  -p parameterN=valueN



java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -noKeyAuth -s http://jet:8080  build tst-so  -w -s -v  -p host2ping=google.com

In my example jenkins is setup with no authentication for simplicity reason.
