Hi all,

Is it possible to restart a failed job using API? How?

TIA

            state = build.getState();

        }

            throw new Exception("Build did not complete in "

    }



}

Thanks for a great reply. This seems to work , but with a problem - it skips the step that actually failed. I want to get the same behavior as in the gui - that the failed step is marked by default and is re-run.
Is that possible?
