ERROR: anonymous is missing the Job/Create permission

Got to run for tonight, but ran across another issue:

Seems to be related to https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-21086

There the recommended fix was logging into Jenkins CLI first, like this:

I have to run now otherwise would test it. Not sure if $JCLIUSER and $JCLIPASSWD are available env vars on the server or not?

That seems to have worked
